Spring Break!!

We had spring break this week and I had grand plans for us! Due to the crazy weather we had we didn't get everything done that we wanted but we had a great time!!

Day #1 - Monday
I thought it was going to rain. It was cloudy all day but it didn't start to rain until later on that night. The kids and I went to Lifetime. They love that place! It was packed because everybody is on spring break but they still had fun. I wish working out upstairs was as much fun as the kid area downstairs!!


Day #2 - Tuesday
Let the rain begin! It rained and rained! At about 10:00 a.m. we lost electricity and the Internet went out. Perfect timing! Brian was able to leave work for a little bit and we went to go see Horton Hears a Who! Very cute!


Day #3 - Wednesday
The weather was absolutely beautiful but everything was still soggy from the 5 inches of rain we got on Tuesday. We went to Lifetime again and then came home and dyed Easter eggs with Grandma. We had such a good time!!


Watching the shrink wrap work on the eggs finally


How cool are these eggs!! - our very own Luke Skywalker!


Let's not forget Hello Kitty! - She is so proud!



Day #4 - Thursday - Zoo day!
Another fabulous day in the Metroplex! We packed the kids up in the car and headed to the Dallas Zoo! Everybody had the same idea! It was crazy! We checked out the Sting Ray Bay exhibit, rode the monorail through the Wilds of Africa, saw the giraffe get fed fresh bamboo and ended the day with a ride on the merry-go-round! Such a fun day!


Waiting in line for the monorail..


Emma and Mommy.. she's my girl!



Luke and Mommy - my shuggie!


Hey buddy.. what are you looking at?!

Our favorite thing of the day! Watching the giraffe eat fresh bamboo!
She loves her daddy!
Day #5 - Friday - our last day of Spring Break
Our week wouldn't be complete without a trip to see the Easter Bunny. Emma has been wanting to go for the last 2 weeks. We finally made it! Along with the other 30 or so people in line. We saw 3 sets of twins! It was crazy!
So excited to be standing in the 45 minute line to see the "Easter Beagle" as Emma kept calling him.
Really happy to be next!
The moment finally arrived! It doesn't look like a beagle to me but she was happy anyway!
I hope that everybody has a Happy and Blessed Easter!
