Spring Break!

We received the boys' spring photos!  How are they already this old/big?

 

Zane - 3rd grade - age 9

Mason - Kindergarten - age 6

To start spring break, Zane had a "field trip" with Scouts.  They went to an Army Reserve Center.  Matt met them at lunch time and snapped a few pictures!

 

 

On Tuesday it was a little bit cooler so we went to Science City and also the Extreme Bugs exhibit.  I must say it was very nice that the boys are the ages they are.  Being with them as the only adult, at least they were all old enough to listen, follow directions, and not just run off from me!  

 

Looking for fossils...

Find any?

Mason got ahold of my camera and he as our "photographer" for the day.  He first spied this spider!

Creepy bugs!

The middle one wasn't so cooperative...

Ew!

Strange looking butterfly...

More creepiness...

How could you not love this spider?!?

A smile!

Entering Science City

Magnetic fun!

See their reflections on the screen?  Bryce LOVED this!  He kept marching across it!

Mason experimenting

Science City is so cool!

"Mom, a helicopter!  Can I get in it?"

Wednesday and Thursday were rainy and COLD!  Not what we wanted for spring break!  So we went to the library, hung out inside, and really just took it easy.

Friday evening we noticed Bryce's voice sounded funny...like when you have a sore throat.  He said his mouth hurt, so Saturday morning Matt took him to urgent care.  Sure enough, he had tonsillitis! You would never know...no fever, no complaining (other than when we asked), and played just like normal!  He's on meds so hopefully it'll clear up soon!

Waiting to see the doctor.  Matt said he was the most perfect patient ever!

This weekend we had the most beautiful weather!  We tried to get outside as much as time allowed for us to!  The older two are really into shooting baskets and now playing HORSE (Or Mason/Zaner, or whatever they want to spell).

HOOPS!

Today for lunch we went to Panda Express.  Bryce loves the fortune cookies and every time he tells us what they say.  Here he is reading a couple of fortunes to us:

 

 

 

Here are a couple of Thomas photos!
