2009 T Ball Awards

Due to our trip last week the kids missed the last T-Ball game of the season so Daddy did his own ceremony with the kids. It was a lot of fun and the kids LOVED It. Enjoy!

We had fun in the SUN!


We are back and I am happy to report that we were so lucky on the weather for our trip. It was sunny and nice just about everyday we were at the lake with our friends. The trip was awesome and although it was a little exhausting at times with feeding 21 people at meals and sharing a 6 bedroom cabin, we loved it! We had so much fun that we have already reserved our cabin for next summer.
I am still trying to catch up as I am sure I will be doing that all week long but the week was filled with so much laughter and memories that The Erickson Five feels fulfilled, rested, and just plan old happy! I was going to update the blog while we were on vacation but that just did not seem to happen so I will recap the events of our week soon but for now, know we had a great time, Thanks for the B, L, and C families for all the memory making fun! Love you guys.

Time For Some Fun

Tomorrow, we head out with three other families for some fun hopefully in the sun! The unique thing about this is that we all have triplets and one family as a singleton. So that makes 13 kids and 8 adults. We are all really looking forward to the trip and it is hard to believe that it is finally here since we have been planning for a few months now. The kids are pumped as some of there very best friends are the other triplets! Jon and I are pumped as we really enjoy spending time with our "triplet" parent friends. I just wonder if the resort is ready for all of us! It should be interesting.
My blog may be quiet for a few days but have no fear, when we return I am sure I will have a lot of fun things to post about. Now I need to get back to packing!

Awesome Weekend!


You know when your Birthday falls on a Friday it is a great start to the weekend. Friday, I had lunch with one of my favorite people and her kids. Then I was able to get a few errands done at the mall with the kids with me which is always a bonus. After the mall we headed to Grandma Mary's house for a festive Birthday dinner of T-Bone Steaks and King Crab Legs. WOW...they were so good. Everyone was in a great mood and it was such a fun night. The kids were so excited for me to open their gift to me it was really cute. They got me my very own brand new blankie....do my kids know me or what! It was so sweet and I loved it. I got lots of fun gifts and I was spoiled rotten. What an awesome birthday it was. Jon made it home for the big event and that was a gift in and of itself.
Saturday the kids went over to Sue's house and Jon and I got to golf with my mom and brother. Since we both had not been golfing in about two years, it felt great to be out there again. I would love to take the kids out golfing as well so we are going to try and do that before the winter arrives this year.
Today I had some time to get the house cleaned up and get organized. It always feels good to have the fridge stocked, the house clean, and just be organized and ready for the busy week ahead. Thanks for all the Birthday wishes everyone. I felt so loved on my birthday and it was such a great day. I could not ask for more. So far this year is off to a great start!
