Spring Break Fun

This year we actually took a trip over Spring Break to--where else??--Big Cedar Lodge! We had a great week, including a birthday party for the boys (I'll do a separate post about that), fishing, swimming, shopping (by myself--yea!!), nature walks, and the list goes on. The week got off to an exciting start...Katie won a trophy at the kids' fishing contest for catching the longest fish!! She caught a huge, 5-lb. catfish that was 24 inches long! (She missed out on the trophy for the fish weighing the most by 2 or 3 ounces.) She was SOOOO excited and David was SOOOO proud of her! :)

A trophy-winning catch!!

Proud Daddy with his two fishing buddies!

Lauren is a bit of a wild sleeper...

I knew it was too quiet in our room...when I found the boys, they had opened the refigerator and started eating the grapes--stems and all!!

Tried to get a cute shot of all four kids...but the boys weren't interested and the girls got tired of me saying "Just one more picture...let's try one more time..."

Preston had fun climbing on anything and everything!!

Playing/hiding/rough-housing/getting wild with Daddy!

Hide and Seek

Preston and Parker just love to be ornery!! Their new trick is hiding under the crib sheet...yes, UNDER it! Several weeks ago, this is what I saw when I went into their bedroom:

They thought they were really funny hiding from Mommy!  A few days later, this is what I found:

My first thought was "Oh, my gosh!  They have gotten out of bed...where are they??"  Then I realized that they were still in bed...under the sheet!  Apparently they had woken up earlier, played around and decided to get under sheet, and then they had fallen asleep!  Look carefully in the bottom picture; you can see two little bodies snuggled up together.  :)  No, never a dull moment around our house....
