Spring Break Part II

Hi!!

Well, this past week was one of the most memorable weeks that we've had in a while! I picked-up the boys on Friday February 27th and they stayed with us until Sunday March 5th. We had a great time watching hockey, playing video games, cuddling, laughing and:

On Sunday; March 1st, we decided to head over to the public pool for a couple of hours of free swim. The place was packed!!!!! The boys didn't 

care though, they spent the whole time playing in the water with us. The kids especially loved the water slide! I stood at the end while they slid down. The kids loved really loved it! We ended up having to pull Katherine away from the slide kicking and screaming! She just really wanted to keep on going. The boys explained that the slide would be there the next time we came and that seemed to calm her. :-)

Here you can see Zach on the left, Katherine in the middle and Josh on the right.

On Tuesday, I had to head out to Gatineau to bring my guys some material, it took me until 2 pm in the afternoon just to get my material together before heading out to site. We only ended up arriving on site at 5:30 and by that time the boys had been in the truck since 8 am (minus 1 hour at McDonalds). We decided it best to crash at a hotel for the evening. Spending another 2.5 to 3 hours in the truck might have been fatal! Zach and Josh spent most of the time jumping from bed to bed. We ordered pizza, gave them a bath and then they went to bed. Not long after, I fell asleep too! They were both spectacular in the truck all day. Thank you Nintendo DS!

On Sunday I decided a nice picture of each of them being calm and themselves!

Here you will see that just as I was taking the picture, Zach noticed that he still had some candy on the left side of his mouth.

While the boys were here, we finished painting the basement. Katherine chose wonderful colors!! We always do our best to make the boys laugh. On the back wall we painted: Zach and Josh love Barbies.... For those who remember, we gave them Barbies at Christmas so, it's a bit of a sensitive issue (hahaha). Don't worry, we painted over it. Only the Katherine, myself, the boys and anyone who reads this blog will know that ZACH AND JOSH LOVE BARBIES!!!

I dropped the boys off yesterday at 6 pm... I cried all the way home. It was a difficult ending to a great week.
