After having a 6 year old boy, a 4 year old girl, After having a 6 year old boy, a 4 year old girl, and a 2 year old boy, our fourth baby is a...

GIRL!! 💕

We are so happy and excited to have two boys and two girls! 

In just one month, we'll be the French Family, party of 6 🤗

And of course, special thanks to @kenziek287 for another amazing gender reveal!

I've worn this Liz Claiborne swimsuit for all 4️⃣ of my pregnancies and it surprisingly still fits! Although, I have gotten bigger with each one 😅 so it's a little more snug now

We can't wait to meet our newest beach baby in June!

What to Know BEFORE You Go to "Launch Into Physics What to Know BEFORE You Go to "Launch Into Physics" 👇

Location: Abbeystone Theatre in Busch Gardens Williamsburg, VA

When: 10am and 11am every Friday in May

Who: Dr. David Wright is a former college professor and has been on the Regis and Kelly Show and the Kelly Clarkson Show!

Other Details: The show lasts approximately 30 minutes. It is more geared towards middle and high schoolers due to the vocabulary taught like "gravity," "inertia," and "energy," but my young children loved it all the same.

There is high audience interaction and they pick out kid volunteers to help with certain experiments before the show begins. So if your child might want to participate, be sure to arrive early!

To reserve your free tickets for the show, simply email their group sales team and submit an order form stating how many seats you want. The staff are very friendly and super helpful!

After the science show, you can spend the rest of the day riding the rides at Busch Gardens Williamsburg and have fun pointing out things you learned!

Here's what made this experience worth it for us.. Here's what made this experience worth it for us... 👇

• It was free!
• It was at a different church than the one we regularly attend. We want our kids to understand that even though we fully believe in our religion, other churches are still good.
• It was immersive and interactive.
• It was specifically geared towards children. Each child was given a burlap bag to put their collectable cards in and they had something for the kids to do in every room.
• It was focused on Jesus Christ.
• It lasted less than an hour and they were punctual with our registered timeslot.

➡️ Would you go to this family-friendly Easter event??
