Spring Break

Last week was spring break and we spent it mostly just hanging around....

The kids had fun making forts and playing a home version of Angry Birds.

Had a fun picnic at the park.

We went to Chuck E. Cheese to celebrate Jonny waking up with a dry bed for 5 nights.  If only he would do it every night.

We went to the zoo with most of the valley (or so it seemed).  We love going to the zoo, but we like it better when it isn't so crowded.  For some reason, I only have pictures of the kids with statues of animals and not the real ones.

A big highlight of the week was spending the night at Aunt Carla's house and watching House of Anubis.  So fun!
Richard surprised us and took Friday off and we took the kids bowling.  Jonny got so excited every time he knocked anything over.
 

After bowling, we took the kids to a "real" restaurant (one with a waiter).  Most of the kids enjoyed it...but Katie refused to eat because the spaghetti had too many tomatoes.  Weird kid.  :)
Then Richard set up the tent in the backyard, where we all slept except Megan (who was in her crib and we had a baby monitor).  This is my kind of camping.  At least until Megan is a little older or we get a tent trailer.  

We had a great tinfoil dinner (cooked in the oven so it didn't even burn).

And of course, s'mores!
 

It was a great week, filled with family fun and no schedules.  It almost makes me excited for summer.  Except for the whole heat thing.
