It's been a while since I've had the time to blog about day to day things. It's just that there are so many little things.... and so little time. Anyway, a few weeks back we had Ken's parents in town for a visit. The kids enjoyed some grandparent attention and got to a couple of fun outings. One was a tour of one of the carriers, the USS Bush, that is in port. We live so close to all this, but rarely do you take the time to visit and see these things up close.
This one, the USS Enterprise, is now deployed and carrying with it our prayers for the sailors and a friend of ours. We're praying with you, J!
The older kids (the top 4, as we like to call them) got to go on the tour, while I stayed home with the little guy. He would have loved it too, but carriers aren't the safest place for busy toddlers.
Dancing on the flight deck. That may be a first.
Jake really enjoyed the whole thing... boats and planes. Every boy's dream. His Bumpa enjoyed it too... for the same reasons.

This weekend, we're having a few special outings with the kids as well. Ken is taking the boys to see "Thomas Live". I wish I could see their faces. They soooo love Thomas. While they have guy time, the girls and I are going to a paint-your-own pottery shop. Right up the alley of my creative girls. Hope your weekend is fun, too.

How fun! I bet that carrier blew little man's mind! And then to see Thomas right after- what a treat. We hope to see Thomas when he's here in April- Tucker LOVES him.
Hope this weekend was fun!!! Thinking about taking Jake to a paint your own pottery while John's mom is here since his birthday was spent in the ER with little brother. Have a good week
The Enterprise was my Dad's carrier! I have fun memories of going to see the USS Iowa in Virginia Beach. Go Navy!
