Going for a swim!

Our plans for a trip to Kingsland got put on hold today. So instead we went for breakfast at Chick-fil-A, we love the chicken box, and then for a swim in Bull Creek. The girls had a ton of fun. We went to a public park that is also an off leash dog park. You don't see many dogs in the pictures but htey were everywhere. Phoebe and Chloe love the dogs....Dylan, not so much.

The water wasn't deep nor running very fast but over the years it had cut a slide into the limestone that was very slippery. Lots of fun was had!

You can see the rest of the pictures here.

Day 5...I'm still alive and so are the kids!

New Video for Mom's entertainment

Last night the kids made a quick video for mom's entertainment. Follow this link to view it.

End of Day 2...Day 3 Begins

Today was a suprisingly simple day. We got up on time and made it to school and work on time as well. I had meeting up Northwest so afterwards I picked up the girls early and made out way home. We played some, ate a good dinner, talked to Mom, watch Dora the Explorer and then off to bed.

Tomorrow the girls are staying overnight with Myra and Emma. Dad get the house to himself. Hoping to find someone to meet for drinks. I really want some sangria from Hula Hut.

Hopefully tomorrow AM is as easy as todays.

Almost forgot....we also saved a puppy. More on that later.

Day two.....missing Guy and the Girls

Well, it's almost 10:00 pm and it is full blown daylight here in Anchorage. Weird! I should be exhausted, but how do you sleep when it is daylight outside? It is so beautiful here, everything is green, it was mid 70's today and there is still snow on the mountains!

I am missing the girls and Guy. I'm sure they are all having fun and having a good time, but the older they get and the more times they ask, "when are you coming home?" The more it hurts! Daddy, you ROCK! Thanks for holding down the fort!

End of Day 1...Day 2 begins

Only one day.....holy cow! I can only hope tonight is a solid nights sleep. In 24 hr we have had 3 potty accidents already with one being in the middle of the night and all from one kid. I am not going to name names but it wasn't Dylan or Phoebe. I think the culprit is missing Mom a lot.

I spent a couple of hours last night worrying about what I would do if we have a home invasion. WTF....I have never worried about that before becuase the answer is simple...kill 'em. I am sure it will be better tonight. I put my favorite sheets on the bed so I bet I sleep like a baby.

Another oddity is the garage. There has to be something dead in there because it stinks to high heaven. I put in a half ass search and dispose mission but just wasn't mentally into it. I wonder if I can manage to not go into the garage for the next nine days?

Day 1

So it is just me and the kids for the next 10 days. We are hoping to post pics and videos each day to keep mom in the loop so she doesn't feel home sick. Luckily I do have help on night and the kids will stay overnight with Myra and Emma, thank you!!!!, on Wednesday. Other that that I am on my own.

I am hoping that these posting will help maintain my sanity but we will see.
