Weekend Pics

Painting shamrocks to decorate for St. Paddy's Day.

We may have had some warmer temps this weekend but it's still going to be a long time before all the snow even begins to melt. So we actually rented our own little patch of green for 30 mins at the local batting cage. Desperate times ;) The kids had fun! Connor was in mid catch when I snapped this pic.

Leyla played a little soccer with us but mostly hung on the sidelines pretending to call her friends with a fake phone. Gotta love this one.

After church on Sunday, we were off to celebrate the sunshine and warmer temps with a field trip to NYC! First stop, one of our old favorite restaurants Brother Jimmy's for lunch. It's an ACC Southern BBQ Bar/restaurant. Katy Perry was blasting when we walked in, it was decorated with Christmas lights, the kids each got a balloon and they had skee-ball. The kids quickly declared it the Best. Restaurant. Ever. But we already knew this.

 Cheers to Sunday Funday! Little different than it used to be but still very fun!

 Logan loves balloons.

Back in the pre-kid days we might have ordered a Brother Jimmy's "fishbowl," basically a huge fishbowl drink concoction of horrible alcohol. They would decorate them with plastic alligators and other flair, which a bartender gave to the kids as we were leaving (the alligators, not a fishbowl.) Too funny.

Then it was off to the American Museum of Natural History, which was right around the corner. Museum was awesome and the kids loved it! We didn't get to see everything, so we'll be back soon.

And finally... Monday morning on the way to school. Leyla sure loves her color and accessories... and I sure love this girl!!

Rockstar pose!

Looking forward to some much warmer temps this week, Spring just might be on it's way!
