This was a great weekend for the Sexton family! On Friday, Grant and his best friend Josh went to the circus. They were both in awe. Tigers, motorcycles, elephants, horses, clowns (although the clowns were a little underwhelming) kept the kids on the edge of their seats for over 2 hours!
I promise, we did not plan to all wear green.... Though it is March...
We usually only get this level of focus during Veggie Tales!
These two are peas in a pod. They held hands and walked around for about the first 30 minutes after we met up!
These smiles were easy to get after watching the polar bear swim by! Unfortunately, I didn't have the camera ready when they hugged and kissed after this moment!
Grant even got to feed a giraffe! Usually Grant is pretty timid about these things, but since Maleah wanted to do it, there was no stopping him! Thanks for letting us hang with you, Alexanders!
Grant loved watching the tigers jumping and waving! For some reason, they don't ever do that at the zoo!
Speaking of the zoo, with temps in the mid 70s, Kurt took the boys on Saturday for some Daddy time. However, they ran into our friends the Richmonds and Alexanders while there! Grant and Maleah love each other, so that made the visit even more enjoyable! Colin had a great time, too! Maleah even helped rescue Colin from his brother a couple of times!

In the evening, it was time to wash the winter off the van! No more salt and winter road grime! While Kurt usually likes to do this himself, the neighborhood kids all decided to join in! Not the driest of activities, but it sure was fun!
Here the kids scatter as they realize that 15 mph winds and water hoses don't mix all that well!
Everybody is in on the action. I'm going to have to get more sponges for next time! As you can see, car washing for us is a contact sport, thus Kendall's protective headgear!
Even Colin got in on the act. He loved using the brush! With all the short guys helping, I didn't even have to bend over!
