Spring Break Style...

One of the perks of being a teacher is having time off throughout the year...and yes, I feel as most teachers do - we desperately need this time off in able to recuperate enough to go back into the classroom and face 100 middle-school students! We love what we do, but a break every once in a while is nice.

This spring break has been very low-key...we do have a big day trip planned, but it has been nice to do small trips - farmer's market, library, and just hanging around the house outside enjoying the spring weather. Here are some of the highlights...

We have watched one movie, we got the Cars on blue-ray so that was fun. Boy #2 lasted about 5 minutes.

Boy #2 loves picking dandelions and eating them...

Boy #1 picked a flower for mommy...

Boy #2 is very helpful in the garden...he loves to scoop dirt and eat his shovel.

Blowing bubbles is always good for killing some time...

This is Boy #2 when I told him it was time to come in..

He quickly recovered after a good lunch :)

Day #2 when I told him it would be a bit before we went out...notice the shoes in hand.

Boy #1 finding creative ways to read the Nook. We did get some new Easter books...

We made root-beer floats - this is the first time he has tasted soda, although he was much more into the ice cream as you can see.

And it wouldn't be a house with two boys if there wasn't some wrestling.

And it's only Wednesday! Spring Break Part Deux coming soon...
