So This Is What It Feels Like To Be 100

We do a lot of math at our house. Anything and everything is added, subtracted, multiplied or divided. One day we discovered after Big J turned 10 our family equals 100. We are only 100 for 2 months. When LaLa turns 3 in May we will be 101. Anywho --
We are always on the lookout to celebrate things so yesterday we decided to celebrate the fact that we were 100. If I had been really on the ball everything would have been based on the number 100, but it wasn't - oh well.
The kids had the day off of school and Big Daddy took the day off from work and we went and had fun. We headed here:
Goldfield Ghost Town by the Superstition Mountains.
We rode the train.
Which was the highlight of the day for LaLa, well that and the HUGE ice cream cone at the end of the day.
We also had to go check out the reptile display. Big J is into snakes big time. It was a little room lined with row after row of snakes in little cages. The boys loved it, I am still a little freaked out.

This is the only picture we have of Ham from the big day. Nice, I know. It was a really cute shot framing his face until he looked away at the last moment.

I can't believe I didn't get any pictures of the kids eating their ice cream. LaLa was guessing what flavor everybody had. She had "white" - vanilla, Roo had "tookie" - cookie dough. Big J had "pink" - bubble gum. And Einstein had "poop" - yeah that would be chocolate.
After we came home and let the babies take a nap we really got wild and took the kids to see "Horton Hears a Who". We were lucky and there were only about 12 other people in the theater so there was room for LaLa to wander around in our row and Big Daddy took Ham and stood on the side for a little while. It was a really cute movie and the kids loved it.
