Spring Break is Here!

Today was the beginning of the boys' spring break and I am really not sure who is more excited about it.... me or them. A break from home school will be welcomed by all three of us. Maybe Meghan will be the most excited not to have mommy so busy with school for the boys on monday and wednesday this coming week. It will be nice for all of us to break from routing and just have fun together.

We started our spring break with a trip to the dentist for their semi-annual check ups.... way to go Mom, nice timing on that appointment. With that out of the way, we did get to have some friends over to play which was fun for everyone.

We have some fun things planned for the upcoming week. Henry is going to Lake Texoma with the Cole's to celebrate Caleb's 8th birthday. Caleb asked Henry and one other friend to go. They will be there for two nights. While they are there, Owen and Meghan and I will head to Austin for one night to visit our old friends and neighbors, Matt and Chandra, and their sweet one year old Maia. It should be alot of fun. For Eric's spring break.... he gets to go to work.

Well, that's not completely true because later in the week when the rest of us are home from our first adventures, we will head out on a whole-family adventure. We are heading to Tyler, TX for 2 nights. We had some last minute plans change and so we chose to go to Tyler so that we could still stay in a hotel (the highlight of any trip from the perspective of a 7, 6 and 3 year old!!) and so that we could get away from the house and relax a little. The hotel has an indoor pool which will probably be the highlight. Tyler has a small but very nice zoo which we will probably visit if we can convince Henry that it doesn't smell that bad (no kidding here, his chief complaint against zoos is the smell). Of course, if there are go-karts anywhere nearby the boys will certainly both cast their vote in that direction.
