Spring Break

It is Carson's spring break this week and we had big plans to do all sorts of fun things. All of which were outdoors and super fun! Well we live in Pittsburgh, where apparently the seasons tease you. It had been in the 60's and sunny, but then this week (of course), it decided to be in the 20's, snowy and wet. So, we had fun doing indoor things instead!

On Monday we drove Daddy to school and Carson wanted to go play at IKEA in the play center, so we did that and then got a hot dog and smoothie at Costco. I know, my children are unusual because they consider this a fun afternoon, but they really do!

On Tuesday we had family game day where we played an endless game of Monopoly (in which Carson creamed me. Seriously, and I even tried), cootie, candyland, bug hunt, and a bunch of others.

Wednesday we had a bowling day with the neighborhood friends and had a great time. It was Connor, this time, who blew everyone away. He got the highest score each game we bowled.

Thursday was a beautiful warm and sunny day so we finally got outside and the boys played and played and played. I love having a big yard where they just run and imagine. Connor has finally learned to climb the net to get up into the fort, so he is big stuff now that he can slide by himself.

Today is egg day and we painted eggs and made Easter decorations. The boys have been waiting all week for today so we could get ready. Carson made a nice note for the Easter Bunny and we will leave it tonight, since he comes to our house Saturday so we can keep Sunday special and reverent.

Creative mind at work.

Loving his new "baby guy" from Grandma.

Some of the finished results.

It has been fun to have Carson home and with us all day. He is my little sweetheart and I am so grateful for him! Connor has been pretty excited to have a playmate all day too.
