Spring Break So Far

Hello friends! How has your week been? Our has been pretty swell so far, I love a good Spring Break! Which to be fair, has mostly consisted of a whole lotta nothing. Reason number 634 that I would be a terrible home schooler.

The big happening on Monday was that we went to the grocery store. BIG mistake on my part. The kids were fine but there were SO MANY people out and about. I usually do my shopping right after school drop off so like 8:30. Both my grocery stores and Target are practically empty at that point. So imagine my shock when it was wall to wall people in the afternoon. Oh well. We also got to play outside for a good long time because it was so nice out!

Yesterday nothing really happened that was interesting, we played outside but that's about it actually. So today I decided to really pack in the fun! We played Candyland while sitting on the Candyland towel. You haven't lived until you play Candyland with a bossy 2-year-old and a really really excited 4-year-old. C won and M just wanted to draw purples.

Then later, the kids helped me make their lunch. It was PB&J so I am not completely crazy. C did the peanut butter and M did the jelly. Everyone got to count out the blueberries, raspberries and strawberries. So that was fun. After rest we played Play-Doh for a long time and then, and I am not even sure how I got talked into this, we made Ninja Turtle cookies. C got a box of Ninja Turtle cookie mix for Christmas from my FIL and his wife.

The mix turns green when you stir. Magical. And after you roll out the balls and smush them down you get to put the edible masks/mouths on them. Super fun. The kids LOVED them. The whole experience was exciting. But they are pretty much tasteless and I can't get past the fact that they're green. 

But there is. Our Spring Break up until now. And you know what? I am loving it!
