We Finally Had a Spring Break

This year has been different for our family: with Jason in school, we have had to make a few changes--including staying home for spring break.  Of course we still celebrated Jason's birthday with a Mexican party,

 

went to the park A LOT,



and tried to find some other fun things to do,

The zoo in the rain

A cold and windy day at a nature reserve
 
Ben helped Eric make a robot costume.
 
Five guys on a rocking chair . . .
 

Alaina got about 10 inches of her hair cut off, and donated her ponytail to charity.
 
but it wasn't the same as going away.

Jason's semester didn't end until the middle of April . . . so we took advantage of the long weekend and spent a few days away from home at Anita's.

We got to see the new house where they will be moving at the end of this month. 

We also spent a day at a farm,



The kids got some leftover balloons from a birthday party :)
 

Even the big kids had fun playing!

 
went to the Cheesecake Factory for the first time ever,

Jason had to help me choose--I ended up with the Key Lime and LOVED it!
 
and spent Easter Sunday together.
 
My favorite picture from the egg hunt
Somehow Ben has grown taller than Jordan and Kya!
 
Janae let Summer play her violin?!
 It was so nice to get away, and to spend some time with Anita's family. 

And now it's on to the last stretch of school before summer. . . .
