sorry

i've been way behind in posting my blog for the 365 days of activities. we've been doing all the activities and taking pics. but I just need to make some time to get it posted. been busy getting our house organized and fixed up because we're planning on putting it on the market hopefully in september. the sooner the better. we need a bigger house that can hold our big family!

yesterday was national hug day. we drove over to starbucks after dinner and bought some cake pops and gave our kids hugs! flavors they had available were birthday cake and raspberry. very yummy!

kids helped make homemade ice cream with our mega ice cream maker. used a different ingredient this time around (cream instead of half and half).

the kids loved the ice cream even more this time around!

sammi decided her toy shovel was a better utensil for her ice cream

catching up on my blog posts....we went to one of my mom's summer food festivals she does every year. this one was located in brazil, indiana. kids love to go visit nana at one of her festivals. they enjoy papa's fried rice. aunt mindy was there helping too! thanks for all the great food mom!

today is national french fry day. so on our way home after grocery shopping, jeff thought of the idea of stopping in to grab french fries from different fast food restaurants. he picked up hardees, steak n shake, mcds, arby's, and bk. we sat in the middle of our living room and ate away!

segan likes getting his pic taken

jadyn loves the arby's fries

we played thomas and friends matching game. sammi again was a little too young to understand the game. she just wanted to sit on top of the cards or grab it all.

yesterday daddy entertained the kids with ball in a cup. each kid took turns moving the cups around and picking the right cup that had the ball under it. they had so much fun with it!
