Spring Break and a trip to the beach

We had a great spring break! Andy took off Monday-Tuesday and Friday, and we had play dates on Wednesday and Thursday. Unfortunately it was way colder and rainier than the previous week, but we had fun anyway.
 Sweet snuggly brothers in the morning. They both have their bunnies.
 Getting every last bit of oatmeal.
 Project day! We hung a curtain in our living room (finally!).
 Miles is getting creative... doh.
 The kids got their Clubhouse Jr. magazine in the mail. Ruby's favorite part is reading the jokes at the end, so she was reading them to all of us. She got to one that sounded familiar to all of us... then we all realized it was her joke that she submitted several months ago!!!
 We all screamed and laughed! We are so proud. They even sent her three extra copies and a letter. It was pretty special! And a really funny joke that she made up herself. She told me the whole process, it happened when she was eating chili and thought of it being hot and how funny it was that it is called chili. Haha!
 They said at school for the students to do math over spring break, so Ruby wanted me to make some math problems for her. She's good at explaining how she gets her answers.
 On Wednesday we met our friends William and Juniper at Pirate park! It was pretty cold.
 But we had fun anyway! I pretty much just chased Miles around the whole time.
 Reid got quite sandy.
 Ruby led a bunch of kids in a game of tag and even got her brothers to play too.
 Evening wrestle time!
 Ruby has been reading the Imagination Station books from the library and loves them. Each one has a word puzzle in the back and when you get the answer it gives you a code for a free Adventure in Odyssey imagination station episode to listen to. They had fun listening to one at bed time.
 On Thursday we went over to the Sprungers' house to play. Reid loved their easel.
 And they all loved climbing on Joe's new structure. It's fun to have cousins close by!
 Miles saw the big kids getting water in this bucket, so he tried getting it out of the wrong pipe. Haha!
 Reid and Caleb from down the street, they get along really well.
 He is seriously my mini me! He definitely looks like a Wetzig/Sprunger and is tall and thin.
 They started putting in a sidewalk across the street and Reid got to test out their mini digger before they got started! It has been fun watching them work.
 On Friday we went to Seaside for the day with Del and Patty! It was cold, but way fun.
 ❤️ 15 years together. ❤️
 Ruby is so sweet with Miles sometimes.
 Andy started a beach project, as usual.
 Reid writes his name everywhere now.
 Brrr!!!
 Miles found Grandma's snacks.
 Project done!
 ❤️
 We love Seaside because if it's cold at the beach there's plenty else to do. The kids loved these huge bubbles!
 Then we all rode the carousel. Miles LOVED it.
 So did Ruby...
...and Reid!
 Then we had some Tillamook ice cream.
 Mmm!!
 Sharing with baby.
 Miles and Reid fell asleep on the way home.
 Ruby reading her Imagination Station book.
 And reading to the boys.
 Watching the construction.
 Ruby and Aylah made a "birthday cake" for Reid.
 Friday night movie night! We watched Ralph Breaks the Internet.
 Who needs toys?!?!
 During nap time Andy took the big kids out on a nature walk. They had so much fun!
 Reid's all ready for preschool!
 Miles and I had fun at Home Depot while the big kids were in school.
 What a sweet sister.
