a few spring events!

During spring break we went to the zoo and it was NUTZ!!!! I was lucky to even find a parking spot anywhere within walking distance to the zoo and then getting through the massive crowds with all the kids was an adventure. We spent most of the time at the little beach. It was still a lot of fun and something the kids looked forward to.




On our way out I realized that I had some cash. I NEVER have cash. Probably because it burns a whole in my pocket:) We had enough for 2 flavors of the dippin' dots ice cream and the kids were in heaven. I think it was the best I have ever seen them share. And Bryn loved it too.



We decided that we would build a sandbox in the backyard. We were really worried about this because we didn't know if the amount of fun the kids would have in it would be more than the amount of mess it would be. I am pleased to announce that the kids love it! It was definitely worth the hard work of building it.





The finished project and celebratory popsicles. Did you know that a sandbox is the best place to eat a popsicle because then the sand sticks to you even more and you also get the stick to bury in the sand? :)
