Spring Break!
We have reached that time of year that I think many homeschoolers start to feel a little burnout. I know the boys and I were needing a break. In fact, I may have needed it more than them! I decided this would be a great week to take off. It was before the public schools were out for break, so we were able to do some fun activities without big crowds.
On Monday we decided to go see the new Peter Rabbit movie. I'm always a little nervous taking all of them by myself to the movies, mostly because I'm never sure how the 2 year old will do. But, we all enjoyed the movie, and it kept all of them engaged!
The boys have been asking a lot if we could go swimming, so on Tuesday we decided to go to the gym here in town and spend some time at the pool. Aside from a few other adults who were taking a class, we had the pool to ourselves. The kids had a great time and they were pretty worn out that afternoon!
On Wednesday, we stayed home because I wanted to get some cleaning done. But, honestly, I kind of enjoyed being lazy that day. I did get the guest bathroom cleaned, so I guess my time wasn't totally wasted.
Thursday we spent some time at the library. We came home with a stack of books that I'm sure I will be paying late fees on in about a month. I always feel like we keep the library totally funded on our own!
Friday we had a picnic at the park in town. My 4 year old was SO excited to have a picnic! He looked forward to it all week because he had watched an episode of Peppa Pig where they went on a picnic. There were picnic tables at the park, but he was insistent that if we had a picnic we HAD to eat on a blanket on the ground, so that's what we did! After eating, they spent a couple of hours getting in some good outside play time!
Today we went to another park that also has a little farm. The boys love going to this park to see and pet the animals. It was a great day!
This boy is all about the slide! Both park days he spent most of his time going down the slide over and over and over....
If only we could all be blessed with hair this fabulous!
We had a great, very busy week! Tomorrow, I'm looking forward to time at church and then hopefully a little relaxing before we start back to our school routine on Monday. I feel like I need a break from our break!
