Spring Break-The End!


This Wednesday we ran for some groceries, and then met our Church friends at the Mulvane Art Lab.  Rowan loved it!  There were Legos, a light table, a chalk cave, various drawing activities, and lots of fun stuff for the kids to do!  He enjoyed the outlet of creativity, and I enjoyed getting to chat briefly with the Church moms. 
We came home and ate some lunch, and then Grammy came to visit for the next two days!

Grammy had taken the week off, so she came for some grandkid time.  Wednesday afternoon we played quietly at home.  Then Thursday, Grammy needed to run some errands, so off Isla, Rowan, and I went!  We went to Kohls, Walmart, JC Penny's, and then let the kids run around in the playground area at the mall.  A quick lunch at Chick Fil'A, and Isla Hope fell asleep on the way home:-)  It was still rainy on Thursday, so we played inside and then ran to get some cupcakes from Billy Vanilly when Isla woke up!

Friday we said goodbye to Grammy, but Alex took the day of of work to play with us!  We didn't accomplish much, but enjoyed some much needed healthy down time.  We played, ate, laughed, and just cuddled our two little munchkins.  

We took the kids to the zoo this morning and enjoyed seeing our animal friends with Dad.  Dad usually is at work when I take the kids to the zoo, so it was a fun change of pace!  Alex and Rowan painted our mailbox today a bright purple color, and I ran to the grocery store for food!  It was gorgeous here today, and we enjoyed some sidewalk chalk and fun outside!

I love spring break, and the peace it brings.  Having grown up with no days off of work, I realize how incredibly blessed I am to have a job that gives me these days at home!  It was wonderful, and I realize how incredibly content my life is.  Nine more Mondays until summer!  That seems doable;-)
