during our airplane ride to orlando, kevin showed brooke how to type letters into a word document, and she thought that was pretty cool.  so now she takes any chance she can get to create her own letters on paper on daddy's computer.  it's like magic to her :)  this morning kevin was able to take brooke to school, which totally made her day.  brooke's class even has an "office" in their pretend area at school this week, so brooke got to go "do some work" just like daddy :)

while brooke and jackson were at school, megan, joey and chase came over for some play time.  chase is really warming up to me now and even wanted to sit on my lap and read books!  after picking brooke up from school we headed over to heather's to spend the afternoon with her, danny and stella.  the kids had fun playing with stella's toys (especially her new batman geo-track) and visiting with aunt heather and uncle danny.  after gavin and stella's naps we were able to get all the kids outside for some fun on the motorized tractor and the swing set.  it was so nice out today!  danny grilled out burgers, and we had dinner with the windows open.  i swear the weather was trying to trick us into thinking that summer is right around the corner!  it felt SO good.
