Awesomeness! 

I am sure you are aware that today is Speak Like A Pirate Day!!  Love that!  In honor of One-Eyed Willy, I made coloring pages for the kids for their homework. 

We got a little carried away with the pirate talk and Big Mama made a real Treasure Map for the kids!!

The first thing on the list was something big, round, and yellow!

Check!

 Next up, touch the stairs...

Done!

 Check the map one more time...

It says to find an old lady with her hair all wrapped up on top of her head!

 When we got to the old lady--there was a prize!!!

New Dinosaurs!!!

Shiver Me Timbers!!  Thanks, Big Mama!!

Celebrating with Friends!!

We went to the club tonight for dinner.  We sat with our buddies, and we reaped the benefits of her birthday celebration!

Happy Birthday, Caroline!!

We got ice cream and cupcakes!!  We love a good birthday party.

Poor Pitiful...

Once we got home, Roo's breathing was a little labored so we did a breathing treatment.  It has been so long since she has had a problem, I had to plug up the machine and get everything all connected.  I walked to the bathroom to get the Albuterol and when I walked back in the room, she was all ready for me!!  

Such a good little patient.

Roo was up 3 times last night with her wheezing and coughing, so that means I was up 3 times last night with her.  Therefore, heretofor...no run this morning.  Boo...

Tours!!

I had 2 tours at school this morning.  I love being busy!  

I got to meet 2 great young families who are very interested in becoming part of our family!  Did I mention I love my job!?!?

Weekend Plans...

I am having brunch with an old friend tomorrow.  She is in town for a wedding and I haven't seen her in several months!  Can't to see her!

Ben and I area also taking the kids to the Bamboo Forest in the morning.  It's some random yet rather large, natural Bamboo forest in the middle of Alabama.  I have never even heard of this, but I'll let you know if it is worth the trip to see it.  

The LPGA tour is in town, so we will watching some lady-golfers tomorrow with the kids.  Dub and Roo are both excited to see the girls playing!  This will be their first golf tournament.  Yeah!

Throw in some Alabama Football...BOOM!!!  Awesome weekend!

Anyway...that's my day.  I swear...it'll get better.

Question for today...

What did you do for Pirate Day?  

Did you have a Princess Tea Party this week?  Why not?

What are your weekend plans?

Any awesome family day-trips in Alabama that I should know about?
