Family Time and Happy Friday!!!

Not your regular cup of joe
Originally we planned to head to Pittsburgh this weekend to visit friends.  Plans shifted when some of the family we were going to stay with tested positive for influenza on Wednesday.  We decided to road trip later next month!
Happy St. Patrick's Day!!
Our little family of 4 bumped up family night from Friday night to Thursday, in order to celebrate St. Patrick's Day.  We took our green clad crew to dinner at a local restaurant and enjoyed some phone-free family time.  After dinner we made green shebert shakes.  The kids loved them and next year we won't serve the 7-up infused beverage to the kids right before bed.

Did you want some cereal?
Despite our road trip changing dates, Scott went ahead and kept his requested day off and we had a full day of family entertainment!  We started with a huge breakfast and making plans for our day.  The kids didn't realize their dad took the day off, so when Scott asked if they wanted to go to the museum with him, they cheered (literally, they cheered) with excitement.  

The balance board
We headed to the Children's Museum of Evansville and the kids enjoyed dragging Scott to all of their favorite exhibits and interactive stations.  They always have a good time at CMOE, but watching them play drums with their dad, build structures, and play in the water room the happiness on their little faces couldn't be missed.  We weren't even half way through the museum when Lila exclaimed, "this is the best day EVAH!!!"
"Can I have dis? Pweese?"
By the time we had seen and done everything the kids wanted to do at the museum, little and big tummies were hungry!  We grabbed sandwiches at Culvers before heading to the Superbike Shop.  Right now we have 1 four wheeler that we all play on, but eventually we're going to need another toy for our family to enjoy.  While Scott looked over the side by sides, Paisley found a green 4-wheeler that he fell in love with.  Lila found a pink one that she loved so much she kissed it good-bye when it was time to leave.  I'm positive both kids (and probably Scott) will dream about our trip to the Superbike Shop today.
Off into the weekend
Back home to the farm with babies that are exhausted but insist they aren't and a husband that has decided it is time to take down our outdoor Christmas lights (finally!)!  I'm soaking up the happiness I feel from a day spent with my favorites and enjoying a day that was a little out of the ordinary.  The rest of our weekend is plan-free and we are ready for it!!

See you next week!!
