spring break | pad patter 4.2.19

No vacations planned for us, but my sister's family came for the weekend last weekend and then she took my two boys back to her house to hang out with her boys until tomorrow. Then I'll drive halfway to meet up for dinner with them and to take my boys back home. It's been nice having a few free evenings at home to catch up on some small stuff that seems to always pile up, both literally and in my to-do list.

 

Our plan is pretty similar! The kids & I usually go to my mom's house for a few days (5 hrs away) but since we have the last few contractors here to finish up the last little things with our basement, my hubby can't miss work, so I have to stay home. It's kinda nice- we've done nothing in particular except some friend sleepovers & some house chores. It has been nice to have helpers home with chores! We told the kids we can do dinner & a movie at the fancy theater with the recliners on Friday as a treat to laying low all week!

 

We tried to plan a spring break trip to DC this month...but between all of our schedules (and booking a house large enough for our family), we couldn't make it work. We finally found some time at the end of May that would work. So we are taking the crew to DC! It won't really be a break (LOL!) but it should be fun.

 

we just finished our Spring Break. NOthing much other than doing nothing.

 

It's been a bit weird for me, DD was off for 10 days last week and DS2 is off for his 10 days just before Easter so we will be having 2 (Spring type) breaks. But it's all good, some shopping, ice cream sampling (roasted cherry and dark chocolate is my new crush), movies and homestyle cooking.
