We aren't being as exciting as last year, but Jay took a few days off for Spring Break this year, so we are enjoying some fun time together as a family.... and trying to keep the kids from getting too bored and driving each other crazy.
Yesterday, we took a bike ride to our local library, which is a little over 2 miles away. We took a picnic lunch and ate it at the park next to the library, then picked up some books. Jay's bike ended up with a flat tire so we left him and Jack there (since Jack is the slowest rider) and I came back with the car to bring them home. Small snag. But it was still fun. Later we watched "Fantastic Mr. Fox" for the first time. We laughed. Our new word is "cuss." And we keep doing the whistle-whistle-click-click thing. It's not old yet.
Today Jay and I left the kids at home for a while and had lunch at Chelsea's Kitchen. Yum! Then we headed to Last Chance... I scored a sweet pair of Steven Madden pumps for $20, and some super cute flats for $10. Later, after a game of Carcassone with Jay and Jack, we all rode our bikes to the local QT for slushies and snacks. We are loving the great weather, so we are racking up the bike-riding-miles!
We have something fun planned for tomorrow. At least I hope it will be fun. I will let you know.
I am so glad you finally got to see that movie! I knew at least Jay would like it. My new goal is to try to get my dad to say What the Cuss at a town council meeting. I think it would be epic. :)
ReplyDeleteChristopher (youngest son) has nearly the entire movie memorized! Most of us seem to just love that movie!
