Welcome!

Welcome to a piece of our sweet journey of life. This blog is about our family life-- my husband, my type 1 diabetic sixth grader, my spunky fourth grader, my first grader little girl, and myself! Enjoy!

Spring Break Fun! (Part 2)

 On the second day off, Aaron & I took the kids to Birmingham & Sylacauga. 


Our intention was to go to the McWane Science center but the parking deck gate was down & said full. This was within an hour of the museum opening. I knew there were street parking lots around but the ones nearby had lines of cars out onto the street, and the spots were small (of which there were none available anyhow). So we pivoted & went to the under-interstate playground that we had briefly stopped at for the Supercross race. Then we went to the Summit and ate at Shake Shack for lunch. Afterwards we ventured across the street to Trader Joe's (wow! The crowds!). Then we traveled to Sylacauga to the Bluebell factory to get our dollar ice cream cups. We played more card games that night and had another memory filled day. 




















I loved our little day trips with them!


Until Next Time, 

Much Love, Reba



Spring Break Fun! (Part 1)

Over the kids' spring break, Aaron & I took a couple days off of work to go on some day adventures with them. 

On Day one, we went to Auburn!

We stopped by Buccees (actually for gas, ironically & not for souvenirs this time!) And then made our way to Country's BBQ. I probably hadn't been there since before I got married. 
The boys enjoyed drinking from jars. 




We then went to Tiger Town Sports to play mini golf. What a fun time! The kids LOVED this and we'll probably schedule some random Saturdays to go back!





Of course we made a stop at Toomers Corner for lemonade! 



We finished up the day by buying lobster tails at Costco and making them for dinner.  Afterwards we played card games which became a kid favorite activity. 


What a fun day full of memory making! I'm so glad we decided to take some time off work and do little trips. 

Until Next Time, 
Much Love, Reba
