We have been trying to save money and one of the things that we have been doing it basically cutting out any entertainment that costs more than $20. Since we moved we live SUPER close to a park that has a great playground and awesome ramadas. I take the kids there a lot to exhaust them let them exercise before nap time. Last week we had the big kids and I was watching my friend's little boy PLUS our nephew was going to stay the night and all I could think about was how to NOT be in the house. Eric got home work, we ordered 3, $5 pizzas for pick up at Pizza Hut, loaded up the killer mini-van (which was FULL) and headed to the park for dinner and dancing playing. It was super fun! I put a blanket down and Delaney and Braydon had a little picnic, we all ate around the table. The funny thing was, it was SO COLD. Yes, I know I live in Tucson and you people with the snow (Jen C.) think am crazy, but it was cold! We hardly noticed it though. The big kids, Eric included, played football, I held Brody and Delaney and Braydon went up and down the slide over and over.
I loved it! The best part was.... it cost $16.20! For a family of 6 PLUS a toddler PLUS another 10 yr old! My mom and I took the kids there again today, she brought McD's. SO much better than sitting in the germy play land with the other smelly children. Plus, I think we are going tomorrow night for pizza and playing! The only drag.... no beer allowed:(
Delaney and Brody "shinging"
Brody loves to swing!!! He fell forward here and thought it was hilarious!
****update**** I obviously didn't proofread this before I published it... sorry if you read it earlier with the tons of errors!
"F'ing Fridays means anything that starts with "f" on Friday! Family Friday, Frugal Friday, Friend Friday, Fun Friday, Fitness Friday (lol) etc. I just thought it would be an easy post each week, kind of like Wordless Wednesdays. Alright, my first "f"ing Friday, SO NOT WHAT I WANTED!!! It was a hell of a day! I had planned on having it be Frugal Friday, but I didn't get the pictures I needed. Maybe next week. Instead, this week week will be Father Friday. I thought that these pictures were so cute.
A couple of months ago, Eric got a new baby. No, not Brody, he got a 1972 Super Cheyenne 20 Chevy pickup. It is his new favorite past time. He LOVES to work on it. Needless to say, I am less than thrilled when he says. "I'm going to work on the truck for a little bit." Yeah, right, a little bit means a couple hours. Then last week he said that to me and I suggested that Delaney "help" him. Graciously, he said fine. So there's Delaney and her Daddy working on the truck... in matching shirts. Too cute.
There's the beauty.... oh and Delaney
Helping Daddy. She was seeing how straight Eric could cut the tint on his windows by jumping up and down in the bed. Just testing his skills:)
Hmm.... how dirty can I get?
Dirty enough that I blend in with the bed of Daddy's truck.
But I am still cute:)
