Day & the Park & Geocaching

    Today, the boys and I decided to go into town when Ron went to do some errands.  He dropped us off at the park and went to do what he had to do.  We had a great time!

He doesn't know he's too big to ride it.  :-)

We finally talked Bub into swinging.

I even climbed to the top of the ship/fort for a picture with Ronny.

Ronny swinging.  Right after I took this he slid off the swing and slid his bottom along the ground.  Ouch!

     I know some of the pics are blurry but it was super bright out and I could not really see how they were coming out until after we got home.  It was also VERY windy so excuse our crazy hair. ;-)

      Once Ron picked us back up, we decided to do a bit of geocaching in our area.  We went to two different locations and found them both.

Fishing!

   It is spring time but it sure doesn't feel like it.  We had 80 degree weather for awhile and then overnight, the temperature dropped 30 degrees and it is cold again.  Parts of Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Kansas all got some snow.  Gardens and trees are ruined.  Luckily, we did not get snow in our part of the woods.
     Yesterday was cool and cloudy and I was craving fish so I sent my hubby and oldest son down to the lake to catch a few bass.  They didn't disappoint.  They caught several and brought home 2 for our supper.  Only hubby and I were eating so we brought home only what we needed.
fishing, bass fillets, fresh fish for supper, quality time with kids,

   We had a wonderful dinner of fresh caught bass fillets that didn't cost us a penny and father and son spent some quality time together.  Yep, it was a good day!

Cheap and Super Fun Activity

   Would you like to be "The Best Mom in the Whole World"?  Or at least be her for about 15 minutes?  Then set this fun activity up for your kids.  All it takes is a bit of dish soap, a bowl and a straw.  Fill a deep bowl with water (up to about 1 1/2" from the top.  Then add a drop or two of dish soap.  Hand your child a straw and tell them to have FUN!   You can see by the photos that it was a hit at my house.  Even my 14 year old son joined in.
