~Day 53: Busy Day!

 

These kids should sleep well tonight!  We started the day by volunteering to help "Feed My Starving Children."  This organization provides meals to children who need it.  Today we mainly helped those in the Philippines.  We helped package over 176,000 meals!! The girls and I put expiration labels on the packages, while Ashton helped to weigh the bags.  It was a good experience for the kids to help someone else besides themselves.  

For their hard work this morning, we went to lunch at their favorite place... McDonald's.  NEVER bring up this place because they will become your best friend till you take them there. 

Then we went to the Arizona Science Center since it was across the street from where we volunteered downtown. We spent an enjoyable afternoon watching a 3D Imax movie about coral reefs, exploring many scientific things, and having fun being together.

To top off the day... Brookie pulled out another tooth and now is very limited on the front ones.  She was so proud!  

I am very proud of my kids.  They were great helps today and it was fun spending time with them.  They truly are good kids and I love being their mom.  Now I am ready for bed...it was a very full day!
