Spring Break

The week the Evan was on Spring Break also happened to be the week that Bret was at his  company's headquarters.  SO, I tried to come up with LOTS of activities to keep the kids active and happy and keep me sane!  We spent the first part of the week at Grammy and Packaw's.

 we discovered new parks with some really cool playgrounds
 and of course swung on the swings
 we visited the zoo.  grammy and packaw took e and g to the zoo last month, and they discovered the butterflies!  evan was a huge fan, and he insisted that we visit the butterflies first.
 we also met up with some good friends!  evan and gracie adore shelby, and i have a feeling that gracie and shelby are going to be best buds as the get older.
 mesmerized by the flamingos!
 riding the carousel!  and proof that i do exist... at least one picture with the kids in 2014..CHECK!
when daddy came home, the weather was still cooperating, so we decided to spruce up the sandbox underneath the swing set in the backyard.  e and bret spent gracie's naptime cleaning it up and adding the sand.  both kids are HUGE fans.  they woke up the next morning and went straight outside to play. it was a wee bit chilly at 7am, but the toughed it out.  now that the weather is getting better, gracie and evan typically play in the sand or on the swing set while i'm making lunch and dinner.  and, its no surprise, that they have been PASSING out every night at bed!
 two dreams come true in one for e.  he got to wear shorts and a tshirt, AND he was able to bust out his new awesome sand toys!
