So I misspoke


The perfet ending to a perfect day is a trip out for ice cream, although I always enjoy a visit from Spidey and Cinderella. Husband suggested it at the last minute so of course I jumped at it. Knowing that I am an ice cream expert, I will give my review. This place is located in our city, has a cow theme, grassy area with picnic tables, plenty of parking however, the service left a little to be desired. Now I know they are not looking for Ivy League grads when they hire for the summer but good Lord could they hire someone that can remember, "Two kiddie cones, one chocolate and one choc chip with jimmies." I had to repeat it as least 3 times and this was after she walked away from the window for a good minute and didn't say anything when she came back. Just waited for us to list our order. The wait to get to the window had been at least 10 minutes and when you are on your first trip out for the season then you need the ice cream fix bad. Overall, it was okay. Husband gave it a 3 out of 10 and I say 5. He tends to be a little tougher than I in most cases. Oh, the ice cream itself was decent but nothing I would get excited about rushing back for. There are places closer to home, lucky me.

Our day wouldn't be complete without ...


a visit from Spiderman and Cinderella. Perfect ending to a perfect day. Safety Boy was trying to act cool so his little sister had to be just as cool but instead looks rather perplexed.

Here's the gang




Since my blog is about my life with my kids here are some photos of them.

Take the Plunge

I decided to start blogging after reading so many others and I want to keep family and friends updated on our unpredictable life. I never realized how unpredictable life with kids would be. Like so many other mothers, before I had children I had it all planned out. HA! I quickly realized it just doesn't work like that. Try as I might to steer my kids in the direction I WANT, they don't seem to "get it". Don't they know "Mother knows best". Although at 5, 3 and 1 I suppose I should give them more time to figure it out. They keep me laughing (and crying) with their antics. As time passes, each day I wake up I can't wait to see what they have in store for me. I hope to be able to share it with you.
