This Happened Before the Broken Arm...Songkran for us consisted of being home and very busy! The kids had off the whole week and Dan had off Wednesday-Friday for the Songkran Holiday! We spent a lot of time with people - and were continuously on the go - which is very unlike us, but it was fun! Dan and the kids made a fun fort in our living room on Saturday - which lasted until Monday when they put up a 6 man tent we gave Dan for Christmas this year! It stayed up all week and was fun for the kids...
Monday - haircuts and nails done at K. Nok's! Kylie had her first ever haircut - K. Nok cut 5 inches or so off and it looks soooo cute! She was so worried about having her hair cut and did great! I got my haircut, too!
Monday evening - we offered to take Jaya and Cadie, our 2 little buddies, overnight so that Ro and Chris could have a night out! The girls spent the night at our house, slept through the night and did great! We had a blast with them and they were lots of fun snuggling their "bubbies" (blankies), watching Sing Off and naming everyone who had a "bubby" in the room!
Tuesday morning - drove down to have lunch with Dan at work - brough Jaya and Cadie with us! The little girls did great - I had planned out our trip to coincide with nap time for Cadie. She didn't fall asleep, but my two big girls did! Lunch was fun and then we came back home!
Tuesday evening - Put Jaya and Cadie down for naps and they woke up right when Ro and Chris got here - they stayed for dinner and then we had other friends come over to have a grown up game night! Played Cranium and enjoyed the friendship of Ken, Amy, Ro, Chris, Brittney, Brian and Ruth!
Wednesday - Joined Ken and Amy's crew at their pool to celebrate M's birthday! Had a blast and did a yummy taco lunch with them!
Wednesday evening - Had Dan's friend Mike and his family out to play at ISB on the playgrounds and do dinner at Que Pasa - they have a 3 1/2 year old and a 1 1/2 year old, so it was fun to play with their kiddos!
Thursday morning - drove downtown to Bill and Kristen's (Dan's buddy from work's) house for a Songkran Pool Party! Kids swam and used an inflatable boat for 4 straight hours while the adults visited and shot some water guns over the 7th story pool at people down on the street!
Thursday afternoon - Joined Ken and Amy in celebrating D's birthday (they have 2 kids with birthdays next to each other)! Soccer, more swimming, yummy pizza and ice cream sundaes!
Friday - Lunch at Que Pasa with our friends Oscar and Elena and their 4 kiddos, then drove around Samakee to get our car splashed and covered in paste!
Friday night - Dinner at Ro and Chris's - enjoyed wonderful homemade enchiladas and homemade cheesecake! Played BANG! for the first time!
Saturday - Phew, just hung out as a family!
It was a super busy Songkran, but it was wonderful to have the kids home for the week and have Dan home for 5 straight days!!!
