Spring Cleaning

As we were picking up kid #3 from preschool today, kid #2 says, "Mom your car is dusty. Can I dust it when we get home?" Woo hoo, Mom hit the jackpot! I had no idea that when he said he wanted to dust it, he really meant the whole thing. When I checked to see what was taking so long I found #2 working hard to dust the whole car.











Mom was busy today too. I taught myself how to use the weed whacker, and how not to use it as well! But at least my yard is mowed and the kids don't have to go through a jungle to get on and off the slide.

Mother's Day

Mother's day is here and the Benge kids have been busy. Mom has been treated all week to flowers, plants, cards and candy. Dad even sent Mom 30 tulips! Her favorite! This morning we went to church and tonight the kids are taking Mom and Grandma Karen out to dinner at Texas Roadhouse. They also sent 3 cute flowers to Grandma Debra on Thursday. Happy day!

Kids and Cars

Wednesday night the kids participated in the AWANA Grand Prix at our church. Kid #2's car looks just like his Daddy's new mustang. Kid #3's car is an ocean scene with the Little Mermaid. They both painted their cars and kid 3 picked the seashells (or sheshells as she says) and the mermaid to go on her car. Neither won any prizes but they loved seeing their cars racing down the track. #2 is already planning out his car for next year. I have no idea how to make the Batmobile so Daddy better prepare for that one!

Notice #2 has no top front teeth. The tooth fairy was busy at the Benge house over the last week. At least she didn't forget like she did with the previous tooth!
