Mystic Aquarium

ByKaren


This weekend we visited Mystic Aquarium. We received free press passes, I just have to blog about our trip. Easy enough considering it saved us over $100!! Yup you read that right, had we paid for all four of us it would of cost us over $100. $28 per adult and $20 per child 3 and over so we would of had to pay for Allison too. Plus they charged $3.00 to go on the Voyage adventure (Holly and I went) and then $3.00 each for us to feed the birds (we got 3 sticks of food). Total = $111 for 3 hours.

Steve would of never paid it, I said we would of because the girls enjoyed it, but I’m glad we didn’t! lol

I’d say the girls favorite part was feeding the birds. I will admit I really enjoyed it too…





And Allison loved the Sea Lion Show. She looks so grown up in this picture!



How cute is this! I’m so glad they like each other (most of the time) LOL


There must of been about a million frogs and tadpoles too! It was pretty cool. The girls loved trying to find them all. They blended in very well!

Lollipop Seeds

ByKaren

Have you heard of Lollipop Seeds?  I hadn’t until Friday.  Allison had to go to the dentist and while there they told us about how the Easter Bunny sometimes brings Lollipop Seeds the day before Easter which you then spread on the ground and when the Easter Bunny comes, he spreads his magic on them and Lollipop’s grown. Doesn’t that sound cool? So the ladies at the office told my girls that they’d get in touch with the EB and ask him to bring us some Lollipop seeds.  We were going to my inlaws for the weekend and we were really excited when we got there and realized he did indeed drop off some Lollipop seeds!!!  I guess the dentist has a direct link to…

Bob and Melissa’s Visit Over Winter Break

ByKaren

Our friends Bob and Melissa have added to their family over the past year.  They welcomed a Foster Daughter into their home that happens to be the same age as Holly and Melissa delivered baby Lauren in June to make them a family of 4! Over the Christmas break they drove up from PA to visit for a few days with us.  This was the second time we met the girls and Holly and Allison were very excited to have Trinity over to play with their toys and have a sleep over. The girls got along great and became fast friends. It snowed while they were visiting so the kids had fun playing in the snow together too.  It was a short but nice visit…

Blogger In Training

ByKaren

  Allison wants to be just like mommy – she wants to drink coffee and water because I do and she wants to be a blogger some day, because I am.  We’ve been tossing around a few ideas for her ‘blogging’ name and I believe we’ve settled on Little Koupon Karen. I think that will fit her perfectly as she is a little me!  

Allison’s Cursive Writing

ByKaren

Allison wants to learn everything Holly learns.  When Holly was learning to do math in Kindergarten, Allison learned to do math.  When Holly was learning to count by 5’s and 10’s.  Allison learned.  Allison then figured out how to count by 2’s just by the logic that it was every other number, no one taught her. Allison is smart, and hopefully will continue to enjoy learning new things as she gets older and won’t push school work aside for something else.  Holly is in 2nd grade now and she is learning to write cursive and is loving it.  Holly has very neat printing and her cursive is looking to be neat as well.  She’s still working on it. Allison, of course, wants to learn cursive…

Day One of Spring Break School Vacation {Shopping}

ByKaren

  We are on school vacation this week and I promised the girls we’d do at least one fun thing a day but I do still have to work.  They love going to the mall, well Holly does (Allison prefers to not walk around too much) and they had some Easter money burning a hole in their pockets so we had to go spend it! Plus I needed to go to the Cox Cable store in the mall so it worked out well. But first we had lunch with my dear friend Luann and her daughter who happened to be in the area today.  I was so happy she called me because she hasn’t seen the girls in a long time because we usually get…
