~Thoroughly Modern Millie~

Kate performed in the Milton High School production of Thoroughly Modern Millie. She was cast as the actress "Ethel Peas". Right away "Ethel" is kidnapped by "Mrs. Meers" and sold into White Slavery(Prostitution) over in the 'orient'. Kate did such a great job. I am so proud of her.

EXPLORIUM


On Friday, April 10th, We went to the Explorium in Mobile with The Stewarts. It was the first time that I had ever gone. My kids had been before with my mother and the Stewarts had been before also. There are so many neat things there for the kids to touch and experience. Maybe we can go back again.

Birdhouse

Brandon was able to make a birdhouse @ home depot thanks, Jenna for letting us know. They had all the tools and stuff there, we just showed up and they gave us the kit and directions and Brandon went to work hammering and glueing. He had fun. He painted it on Sunday, after conference, the roof is red and the sides are blue. It looks pretty great. Home depot gave Brandon a home depot apron and an activity pin with a birdhouse on it. Next month they will build a wheel barrow planter. Brandon hopes to go again. Yeah!

Dinner At the Casino

So we took our kids to 'The Wind' Casino in Atmore on Saturday night for the Seafood buffett. We took the camera in. We took a couple of shots while we were eating. Just recording our fun time. No big deal right? Then the waitress came up and asked us to put the camera away because you can't have cameras in the casino. It seems that they don't want you "Accidentally" aiming the camera lens over on the gaming floor.
Anywho, we have created a monster, Kate LOVES crablegs. It's over now. She will never settle for McDonalds on a date. Hehehe. I think Brandon went to the dessert bar 3 times. You would think that I never feed them.

Camping at Munson

The kids made a campfire using the magnifying glass while we were camping. Brandon was very ingenius. The leaves kept smoking but wouldn't flame. All that was needed was a little "blowing". Kate blew on the leaves and immediately it caught. We had a great time camping.
