March has been flying by so quickly, we were lucky enough to have my entire family here for a weekend. We did a big combined party for all of Mimi & Papa's grand babies. Here are some fun pictures of our fun times this month.

This is the cake with all 7 kids names on it:)

Vance at Incredible Pizza riding the kid train.

Here is Alyse having the best time as you can tell.

The train is seriously the only thing we could get here to do there. She is so funny!

Alyse and Olivia take this opportunity to take a drive together:)

Darron doesn't look quite as happy to be on that train does he?

Me with my Vance boy. Warming up after family pictures

We went up to the OKC Bombing Memorial. It was such a moving experience. This is a sculpture of Christ that sits just off of the main memorial. His back is turned and he is crying into his hand. It was so heart breaking.

Part of the group walking along the back wall.

These are a few of the rows of chairs. There are 9 rows total representing the 9 floors of the building. If you look closely you can see the second row from the right has slightly smaller chairs. Each small chair represents a child that was lost and the second floor held the day care which is why it has mostly small chairs.

Darron, Emarie and Olivia sitting by one of the small chairs. If you look closely by Olivia you can see the name of the boy that the chair represents.

Alyse enjoying the sunshine!

This was one of my favorite pictures. Here is Papa explaining to Darron and Emarie what the chairs mean. It was so neat to be able to go there together as a family.

Breann and Alyse taking a nap. So sweet!

Darron's 5th Birthday!!! This is the cake Joe and I made for him this year. What is cooler than a mask, two toys and M&Ms all on one cake?

Make a wish!

More ice cream please.

Now that's good cake!

These are the cupcakes Darron took to his class to celebrate his birthday.

Gifts from Grandma & Grandpa Broderick. He got an activity book, a Blue's Room, Dora the Explorer and Backyardigans video. He loves them all. Thanks:)

Ooohhh as Star Wars Transformer! What is cooler than that?

Answer: a Bumblebee transformer:)

Cousins make the best birthday guests.

Darron showing off his pirate gold.

This was the warmest day in a long time so we spent as much time outside that days as possible.

Alyse doesn't believe in letting Darron take time out on his own. I am pretty sure she doesn't understand the concept of time out.

My silly kids wearing ties around the house.

As promised here are pictures of our trip to Disneyworld. It was hard not having Joe there but since he started his new job at the FAA he couldn't very well take off to come with us. We sure had a ton of fun with Mimi, Papa & Aunt Nana. Here are a few glipses:)

Darron on the Teacups. He was laughing so hard it was so cute.
Papa, Happiest place on Earth indeed!
Darron and Nana doing their best impression of a blow fish I guess. So cute:)

Darron at the UK Pavillion in Epcot meeting the Pooh Gang!
Us at Epcot again. Of course I am taking the picture. What a fun crowd!

Princess Alyse beautiful white horse. Alyse already looking tired at the Nemo and Friends ride at Epcot.
Darron was quite the roller coaster rider. Here he is with Nana getting ready for yet another fun ride.
Darron with Mickey and Pluto. Notice Alyse is absent from all character pictures. She will not come within 10 feet of any character. Funny except when you are trying to get some good pics.
Me and the kiddos. :)

Darron and I heading into the Haunted Mansion.
Alyse the movie star with Mimi and Papa.
And just like that he is asleep. Small world bores everyone, even the young.
Darron on his horse. Living the dream:)

CHRISTMAS DAY 2007

Sorry this took me so long to post. Never a dull moment in the Broderick house. After our trip to the ER on Christmas Eve for Alyse's ruptured ear drum, things are finally back to normal and everyone is back to good health. So Christmas was a little crazy but still so much fun:)

This game was the best thing I ever bought for the kids. They just loves it and it is so easy for them to play. It is what they play everytime there cousins are over.

Daddy and the kids inspect the goods:)

Alyse with her new baby from Grandma and Grandpa Bryant.

Darron got two awesome transfomers from Grandma and Grandpa Broderick.

This is Alyse admiring her new butterfly wings from Grandma and Grandpa Bryant

Darron gives a thumbs up for what Santa brought him.

Santa brought Alyse a baby stroller and there is nothing she loves more than babies and strollers besides maybe shoes.

Alyse got some new books from Grandma Broderick

Darron got a couple costumes from Grandma Bryant. What a mess but oh what fun!

You can't forget the accessories.

Christmas Eve at the McAdams house

Alyse loves the puppets Aunt Ella made for her.

Darron got a block puzzle that makes 6 different puzzles and he loves to play with it. He loves all things puzzle:)

I have been tagged twice now so I figured I better go ahead and do it.

A. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning.
B. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog.
