I love Spring Break!

What a WONDERFUL day it was today!!!
Yesterday we did not do too much exciting....I dropped Austin off at school, while Alyssa & I went to work in my room and go to the grocery store. Then we headed home to unload & reload to go set up for our casino party! Then it was back home to get ready & meet the sitter! Chad and I had an AWESOME time at our casino night....good times & laughs with many dear friends! AND....I want to go gambling SO bad! I love me some blackjack....and I even picked up learning how to play some Craps tonight! And, Chad....well....he does NOT enjoy gambling! He would rather hang on to the money! :)
Today was AMAZING! We woke up early. I was a 'fool' and scheduled Alyssa's dentist appointment early.

Alyssa my dear....how you DISLIKE the dentist (and any doctors). I feel so bad because you get yourself worked up in tears so quickly. :( We did actually get you to lay on the table this time so the lady could clean & floss your teeth. (Last time you stayed in my lap...baby steps...) We still have not gotten to take pictures of your teeth - that is the goal for the next visit. The doctors have commented on how tight your teeth are and have told me both times that braces will be in the future - more so sooner than later :(. Ugh...poor thing. I 'DREAD' those days and pray that you will overcome most of your anxiety issues by then!
After the appointment we went to meet Meghan and the kiddos! We all headed to SA to watch Pinkalicious at the Magic Theatre. You seemed to LOVE the show. You got to run around with your friends on the awesome playground before and after the show. We also enjoyed a sack lunch picnic there after the show. Then we headed to Sonic for 'happy hour' before going on to the Witte Museum. We went through the dinosaur exhibit, and I was impressed that you were not scared of the dinosaurs in there! You had a blast playing in the Science Treehouse. Had some cool things in there. After that we loaded up, and we did a little shopping in Old Navy. You helped me pick out Austin's swim trunks. So cute!!!! Then we met four of my college girlfriends for dinner. I didn't think you were going to make it (or myself) but you ate a bit and then it was time to call it a day!!! You were out in no time on the way home. Austin spent the day at his daycare, and hanging out at the baseball field with Dad. THANK YOU for a great time today Alyssa - I had a blast! I look forward to so many more memories with you. I love you my sweetie! And a major thanks to Kinley's mom for planning most of this great day!!
