Spring Break '12

Our Spring Break started on March 30th and the girls and I spent that day shopping...fun beginning!


Lily babysat the next two days--all day. While she was doing that, Shelly and I worked diligently on her animal project. It isn't due until the 23rd of April, but it felt great to have it all done.


On Tuesday evening we packed the car with suitcases, children, and a cat to head to Virginia Beach to see our family. 


Once there, we hung out with my dad. We visited with John's family. We shopped with my sister and a friend of Lily's. We also were about 4 miles from the site where a USN F-18 crashed on Friday. Scary, but a true miracle that no one died! We got a chance to visit with some friends. And, we also made it to the beach for a walk, a chance to put our toes in the ocean, and watch some surfers.

We finished our trip on Sunday with a hunt for Easter baskets and an awesome brunch at my sister's. Then we packed the car to head back home complete with a furry sweet cat!
