CoCo Key

The family spent the weekend in Omaha. It was John's parents anniversary (40 YEARS!!!!!) and John's brother and sister-in-law had a little family party for them. It was also Corynn's birthday- so we celebrated that too.

The kids had a total BLAST swimming at the CoCo Key water resort! Its pretty nice- not sure of the prices or anything- but the kids had alot of fun and really enjoyed it! It would definitely make a nice family weekend get away in the winter! Something for all ages...


Here's Corynn blowing out her 'candles' at the hotel pool! Our rooms weren't quite ready- so we threw an impromptu poolside party! The girls helped make the cake the night before...its supposed to be a castle if you can't tell! :)







Here are the girls and their cousin...in the pool...of course! I'm missing a picture of the little cousin- he's 7 months old...he was even in the pool...they all LOVED it! Thanks grandma and grandpa!






Swimming is the perfect thing to 'tire out' the young'ins! Here's a pic of the ride home

Monday MUNCHIES!!!!!!

I was forwarded this recipe from someone and she's pleased to announce its only 1 point on weight-watchers (if that's your thing!)

Yummy Pumpkin Cake

1 box of Spice cake mix
1 can of pumpkin pie filling
1 handful chocolate chips

Do not add the eggs, oil or water that the cake mix asks for- just the can of pumpkin and chocolate chips. Bake according to the box.

Easy and yummy!

Happy Bday baby girl!

in just five short years! Such a sweet little thing! We love you!

Our spring break

Here are some of the highlights from our week at Camp Davey:




blowing bubbles- Emma loves biting them!








Jumping on the trampoline (our daily exercise along with walking in the pasture)











Checking our blue bird houses for nests or intruders...the first four were empty and the fifth had a blue bird nest!





And then there was the general goofiness...we had a funny face making contest at dinner one night- too funny! I don't think John and I had to try to hard :)









It was a fun week! Can't wait for summer vacation...only 8 more weeks!!!
