So, since we weren't traveling for Spring Break this year, we decided to work through the week. Gave us a week's advantage over our friends who are in county schools and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. We did take a day off to play with our friend and we did do several field trips. We went to the aquarium (twice) and joined "Keeper Kids" where the girls had the opportunity to go behind the scenes and take care of the animals at our aquarium. We live close to the Tennessee Aquarium and bought a family membership for this year, so going there on a regular basis is going to be a lot of fun. We are also going to start Apologia's Exploring Creation book, Swimming Creatures of the Fifth Day and we are excited about that. To that end we have picked up a few resources that I will share in a later blog.
We also visited the assisted living facility where Great Grammie lives and spent some time with the people there. Boo enjoyed looking at all the home made quilts and singing for the re
sidents and everyone enjoyed hunting for Easter goodies and playing with the llamas that were brought in for the event. We didn't get to see Great Grammie since that is her dialysis day, but we sure have enjoyed getting to know the other residents and the people who take care of them.
Easter Sunday brought a lot of good times as well. Boo and I participated in a special worship event during our church service and were very blessed to be a part of that.

So, while we didn't do a traditional Spring Break, we did celebrate the beginning of Spring and truly enjoyed working together and learning some new things. Best of all was Daddy's three day weekend (a rarity) and extra time spent with him.
