Friday's activities!

Fridays are always fun in our house, it's the last day of a long school week (Carter is nearly at his end by Fridays, 8-1:30 5 days a week is a lot for him!!!) So, we try and plan something fun so that they have something to look forward to after working so hard all week. So, Movie Night was created! We have popcorn and lemonade (which is a treat around here) and watch a movie together. Well, most of us watch, Cooper has a tendency to wander around with her popcorn making a huge mess, but, we let her do it and clean it right up! The girls usually watch about 45 minutes and then nod off. Carter watches the whole thing and then is off to bed. Last nights feature was "Milo and Otis", and if you haven't seen it, I recommend it, FOR KIDS!!! Jason and I about fell asleep ourselves, but it was all for the kiddos! Dudley Moore narrates the thing, and let me tell ya, it's like a sedative. Anyway, they loved it (minus any parts with a bear) and enjoyed the whole evening. Earlier in the day, the twins made cupcakes with our new nanny, Betsy! Kara is leaving us next Friday (and we are really sad), but Betsy has stepped right in and the kids love her! So we are lucky to have found someone, but the 2 1/2 years we've had Kara here has been great, she's part of the family now!!!!
