Treasure Hunting

It has been so crazy busy over here

it is ridiculous!

The funny thing is that

nothing is getting done.

Abigayle has been in a horrible mood

and it is taking so much time

coaxing her back into niceness.

We went to the library yesterday.

Brayden participated the first half,

Blake participated the second half

and Abigayle LOVED the entire thing!!

She toddled right over,

picked out her own mat

carried it all the way back

and sat on it the entire time, lol

We will be going again on Tuesday

and hopefully these boys will start liking it too.

Chuck went treasure hunting yesterday.

We are so proud of him!

While diving he found something amazing!

Can you guess what it is?

nope...

that's not it...

no, that's not it either...

Do you give up?

Well... I'll just tell you then.

He found a snapple bottle!!!

Well... I guess it wasn't that amazing

but I did think it was funny when he told me!

His team had finished their project

so his teacher sent him down

to the bottom of the lake

in search of a snapple bottle.

Poor Chuck, had no idea

where it had been thrown,

or what it looked like.

He was just told that the teacher

threw a bottle with a line somewhere in the lake.

After about 10-15 minutes,

he found a line hanging in the lake.

He pulled about 10 feet of line in

and found the floating snapple bottle.

Now remember, this lake only has

1-2 feet of visibility so this task is actually

harder than it sounds.

I told him they were just teaching him

how to treasure hunt, lol.

Hopefully one day

he'll find something amazing!!

Today, I am grateful for my children.

Although some days are harder than others

I couldn't imagine my life without anyone of them!!
