Cousins & Bunk Beds

Over Spring Break we shifted around bedrooms. Jake has his own room now and Dylan and Ryan are sharing a room with bunk beds. My sister, generously, gave us a set of bunk beds that my boys are really enjoying. Ryan is 4 1/2 and has been sleeping in a toddler bed up until now, so he is definitely enjoying the additional space. Dylan opted for the full sized bed on bottom and Ryan has the twin sized bed on top.

The day we got the bunk beds, we rented a U-Haul and went to my sister's house for the day. This was the day after the dryer broke, so we were able to use the rented U-Haul to pick up our new (used) dryer too. The kids had a blast at their cousins house riding skateboards, flying kites, jumping on the trampoline, blowing bubbles, relaxing in the jacuzzi, riding the go-cart and having nerf gun battles. The perfect day was topped off by BBQ'd steaks and brownies!

We got home about 11:30pm and after emptying the U-Haul John announced he was heading to bed since he had to work the next day. Jake volunteered to help me build & assemble the bunk beds. I knew he needed to go to bed, but figured it would be easier to build them while the younger boys were sleeping. So we did it, we stayed up till nearly 1:30am, but we completed the task. Jake was a huge help and we had a good time!
