My baby girl (she isn't growing up, no matter what anyone says!) getting a drink at the outdoor mall today. We tried so, so hard to have a fun day with the family. Weather was gorgeous, no school, no work. Alas, the kids were just incapable of having fun. After spending the week passing around a cold, it just didn't work. Poor things. We went to Avery's (almost four years old) first karate tournament in the morning (yay!)..but she wasn't having it. Not at all. She did eventually go and stand perfectly still and silent in front of the judges :P For participating, she got a giant trophy that's taller than her and is all proud :) Then, the two younger girls were begging to go to the mall and get the their ears pierced. Guess what? They freaked in the chair and we left. Going to the play area will solve the grumpy time, right? Not when Carter (2) runs, smacks his face on the cement and gives himself a bloody nose...We then went to the drinking fountain and all heck broke loose after that! Glad I caught one of the last, dwindling happy moments on camera! Complete failure of a family outing, but the most important part is that we were all together, right?? Lesson learned..we are not leaving the house tomorrow! I need a drink!! ;)
