Spring Break 2019

This year with spring break being so much later, it was MUCH needed for all of us. The week leading up to break, our kids were having a harder time waking up each morning and were exhibiting some behaviors that were not as typical for such a prolonged period of time. On Friday morning, they were so happy to be able to stay in their pajamas (as was I) and not have to rush anywhere. 


Our first event to start our break was an egg hung at a friend's house. The kids were so excited and had a great time with their friends. 





On Saturday, we celebrated Colin's 10th birthday with dinner out at one of our favorite restaurants and cake back at the house before heading over to a friend's house to decorate eggs. 




On Easter morning, the Easter bunny dropped off our eggs at a different house, so we went to find them there before hosting family back at our house for Easter dinner. 




It was a BEAUTIFUL day so we spent a lot of time outside. 






Colin had such a great day on Monday celebrating his birthday with a few friends from his class. He had a blast dancing the night away! 


I had so many adventures planned for the week in addition to a few things I wanted to accomplish, but as with any best laid plans, it doesn't always work out the way you want it to. There were parts of our week spent hanging around at home or running around doing errands...



We took a quick trip to the beach...




After Colin got his braces on, we had to play the days by ear based on how he was feeling but we still managed to visit Barnegat Lighthouse...




squeeze in some playdates...



...and finish up the week with Colin's track practice and Kailey's soccer practice and game. 




The week went fast but was filled with lots of memories. I'm sorry to see it end!
