Spring Break 2016

We had such a good spring break, the kind of spring break that makes settling back into our regular routine hard. We went to 5 or 6 playgrounds. Ez started off the weekend by asking for me to take him to the playground where we had his dinosaur party. He climbed all over the playscape like a monkey. Other parents routinely comment on his climbing prowess, sometimes they're impressed and sometimes they're horrified because they think (incorrectly) he'll need my help. He discovered a great swing under a huge old tree and had a blast.

We also went to San Antonio for a couple of days with my BFF and her kids. The kids loved staying in a hotel room together, swimming, going to the zoo, the Doseum and on a train ride.

Scott took the kids for donuts, then they spent the day at Mt. Bonnell.

I also took them to Mayfield Park and Ezra fed a peacock. We went on a big hike and the kids slid all the way down a big hill on their bottoms, which they thought was hilarious.

We also went to Lady Bird Lake with Marshall and Janet and their kids and ended up randomly eating at Joe's Crab Shack when it became clear that the kids couldn't soldier on without French friends and the adults were in need of a cocktail.

We ended the week by celebrating Eli and Ryan's birthdays (more playground) time and meeting up with Emily and Duval and family (even more playgrounds).

Beautiful weather, the kids are at super fun and easy ages and we got to see so many friends! We are so lucky.
