Dc

The Ricketts girls are in town! First day... dc! Jack and Charlie had their first metro ride. We rode a nice new fancy train into town then a dirty old one on the way back... oh the memories! We went to the Smithsonian museum of natural History to check out the new Dino exhibit. It was hard to pay attention with the boys soooo idk what I thought about it! 





















And we rode The carousel 


They watched the carousel go around
Before they got on and jack was like “I’m going to get on the dragon.” He overheard another kid say it and he was like “no! I get the dragon!” He sprinted over there as soon as the gate opened. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

From weeeeeeks ago. A little snow that was gone and melted in 2 days Valentine’s Day 🫣  Videographer at LT featuring the kids academy.  To bed with makeup on. The gift that keeps on giving, Mimi. Not feeling so hot.  Quinn was sick for a couple of days then the boys were sick a week later for approximately a week.  Mia is 7!  Kiwi co box with Daniel.  Workout time  A morning game of clue  Again the gift that keeps on giving. Thanks Mimi.  Found 1,345 pictures on my camera roll of these 2.  When mom makes you get outside even when you’re sick.  Down for the count. He was tired and out of it for a week. Barely wanted to eat. Flu? Who knows.  This one too.  Still vibing. Matching with her bestie.

Jack with his relay team at the relay carnival!   So after the relay carnival we learn which teams made it to all-stars. The tradition is they go house to house delivering the all-star caps. I did say my kids were asleep in the group chat. Well at 9:30 pm jacks coach knocks on the door. I obviously let him come up to wake Jack up to share the big news 🤣😬🫣 when he woke up he asked if it was a Dream or real life  4th of July shenanigans.  Whirlpool  Eating the Watermelon from the watermelon relay  They’re inside a swimming cap. Didn’t know they stretched like that 😬 As the most random adventure ever we went to frying pan park. We had a coupon to ride the Ferris wheel so why not on the 4th of July?  Then firework time! We had an A meet the next day so we watched u til it got dark and headed home to finish watching from The front porch.  We had a relay team spaghetti dinner the day before all-stars  Relay team with their coaches  They were se...

January and the cruise!!

We were scheduled to fly out early Sunday morning, January 5th. The Friday before our bodies had other plans. We went to life time Friday evening and the staff came to grab me informing me jack didn’t feel well. I signed him out and asked Mike to come pick him up. While we’re waiting, jack tells me he’s going to get sick. I grabbed the nearest trash can and caught the vomit mid air. I stay and swim with Charlie and Quinn and Charlie starts to say he’s suuuper hungry.. which I think he confused for an upset tummy. Anyways, the 3 of us go to chipotle. Charlie barely eats and I’m thinking oh crap. I grabbed a brown bag to have in the car just in case. Well we needed it. The bag ended up Giving out and vomit ended up allll over my car. Boys in bed but both up for a couple of hours getting sick. Then that was it for them. As for me. Omg. Around midnight was my turn. Absolutely freaking miserable. Saturday I was tasked with packing up the kids and I did a crap job. I’m not even sure how I di...
