We just wrapped up a really fun spring break at home. We had pretty amazing weather here the entire break too. After school on Friday, we kicked off our spring break with a trip to Lewis Farm. Here is some of the other fun we had!
Saturday was a rainy day, but in cleared up in the afternoon and we all went to the Arboretum. The kids love to feed the fish. The Arboretum was also having their annual plant sale. We loved the little fairy gardens that were tucked away all over the Arboretum. In fact, we are hoping to make one of our own fairy gardens soon!
Monday we hit the downtown library for ALL THE BOOKS to dive in to over break. We also stopped in to Daddy's work for some hugs & kisses.
We packed a picnic lunch and met Daddy at Pier 33.
After our picnic we hopped on for a free trolley ride. Kids love this!
Wednesday was a gorgeous day so we hit the beach for three hours! The only bummer was that we hadn't worn swimsuits. So far it's been too cold or windy plus the water is still cold, but Wednesday the kids swam and played in their clothes. A good time was had by ALL.
Thursday morning Jake was off of work. We grabbed some Duck Donuts and hit the beach again for a couple of hours.
We wore our swimsuits this time!
It should go without saying, but we also hit ALL THE PARKS over break.
Friday Jake took off of work and we did a family trip to Southport. We even took the ferry there. We haven't done the ferry since Ella was a baby. All the kids loved it!
There was a spring festival in Southport that day.
Saturday morning we hit the beach again, but only for one hour. It was super windy and rather cold.
Sunday was Easter. We celebrated our risen Savior with our church family at The Bridge. We had some dear friends join us for lunch. Unfortunately we completely forgot to take any pictures on Easter.
Monday was our last day of break. We hit the beach for the afternoon and soaked up some rays.
We can hardly wait for summer!
