Spring Break Review

I managed to survive the first day back from Spring Break.  I have to be honest though, images from the time with my family were re-playing in my head and helped me through the day.

Here are some of the fun activities we did:


We went to baseball practice.  Read more details about what happened He got a Hit and I Missed it.




The weather was beautiful so we enjoyed playing outside with chalk!  B made this picture of the two of us.  He defiantly captured my good side.  Isn't it beautiful?!



We took a trip to the beach.





We even went to the moon.




Some eggs were colored.




I made a cake for a friend's birthday party.  Brent and I got to attend a a party without children.  Yay for adult time!




Eggs were hunted.




Finally, we celebrated Easter.



We didn't go anywhere fancy for spring break, but we did have a lot of fun!

Beach Day


This was us last spring break, at the most magical place on Earth! As much as we would have LOVED going to Disney World again, it just wasn't possible. So we improvised and created our own day at the beach.



B and G are making their tickets for the air plane ride.




B and G changed into the beach attire that Mommy picked out and prepared to board the air plane with their tickets.




Getting settled and buckling their seat belts before the take off.




The in flight movie complete with peanuts to snack on and a drink.




It's good thing they were wearing their swimming trunks because the plane brought them to the ocean! The ocean was green and fish and crabs were swimming in it.




Baby M woke up during the ocean play. Mommy had to feed her and then dressed her for the beach as well.



Time to play in the sand!




I found these bad boys on sale at Target! I just love sales :)




Finished products




Counting (Hey look at that we squeezed a little math into our day! Couldn't help it, it's the teacher in me) their loot after the seashell hunt (We didn't have shells so we used plastic eggs. (Whatever works, right? Bottom line, they had fun).




Now for a little seaside reading (We had some math practice we mustn't forget about reading.).




Nothing is better than eating lunch on the beach. Mylonni is patiently waiting for B and G to share with her.




Baby M enjoys a little 'water' play while the boys finish their lunch.




Time to head back home on the air plane. G is sad about having to leave.




While the kids had fun and played at the beach, Mommy put the SHARKS to work!


What fun family activities do you have planned for spring break?
