Good Friday ushered in our first experience with spring break. Both boys were off until today when Brennan headed back to school. Thankfully the weather was on the cooperative side so we had a good amount of outside time (our house is only so big and sometimes feels like an implosion is imminent thanks to the energy of two preschoolers!). We had some good times going on walks and bike rides around the neighborhood, playing at the park, library outings, and watching movies. On the weekend with Daddy home, there was even more fun getting the garden ready, walking around the lake at the University of Richmond, and hiking down by the James River. Despite the fun of spring break and lazy pajama mornings, I'm so glad to get back to the routine of preschool and other regular morning activities. I thrive on having a regular, consistent schedule (and the boys do as well), so a week of not that was a little challenging. I'm starting to get a little intimidated by the upcoming summer vacation, but am already starting to brainstorm ideas of ways to stay occupied in these remaining months before Brennan starts kindergarten in the fall!
The camera didn't really come out during this past week, but we took it along for our walk along the river yesterday. Boy, was it nice to get outside and enjoy spring now that it's finally arrived here in VA. And Owen loves to collect sticks on our nature walks; he seems to make it his goal to collect enough kindling to get us through next winter!
