6 days!!!!

Only 6 days til Spring people!!!!

 
Yippeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


These little bundles of color make me so happy each spring.  I am not so happy with the new camera I got last year but every once in a while I manage to get a few pics that capture what I want.  Don't you hate that?  I think my new phone takes better pics than my camera!

This one turned out nice too.

and...look at this house!  I drive by this lovely home every morning taking L to school...one of my favs and it's hard to choose around this town...there are so many I love. 

Awe well...so kids have just 1 more day of school this week and then it's off for Spring Break!  My awesome MIL is visiting for 7 days and we always enjoy that.  It will be nice for kiddos to have a break from all the school stuff.  It seems a lot of projects have come due here recently.

Happy Thursday everyone!

I just did this?!

It's Thursday...actually Thursday and I have some things to be thankful for...on time...whoo hoo!

Thankful for...
my Mother-in-Law
Spring Break
no homework
no schedules

So my MIL is in town visiting us this week and we have been having a ton of fun.  Not only have we been going places and seeing new things, we have been hanging out at home, chatting it up and laughing.  It's been so nice!  I have always loved her dearly but I don't think I have always appreciated her thoroughly.  She is silly, funny, spontaneous, willing to do anything for my kids, and just plain lovely!  Here is some of our fun!

We headed to The Magic House...the StL Children's Museum!  What an awesome place that is...WOW! 


The bubble room was one of my favorite areas and there were many cool areas!


This was very cool.  You just stood there and danced to the music.  This is Baba (the word for Grandma in Croatian) and Lili!


Cool!

very Cool!

Very very cool!


We also hit the fabulous StL Zoo!  It was such a beautiful day!  Some highlights...

Even though they are getting big, everyone still loves the carousel!
"Don't mind me, I'm just going to eat my corn!"

"Go Away mister", "Oh but I wuv you so!"

"Oh I am so beautiful, look at my big, strong arms...are you impressed?!"

"Why can't I come hang out with you?"

"Oh my, I can't always entertain you people!"




The very cool train.  It takes about 20 minutes and it gives you a full tour of the zoo.

We saw a few animals but a lot of them seemed to be sleeping yesterday.  It was still great fun!


Today I think is a hang out day here at home...specifically requested by one of my kiddos...crazy huh?!
So let me say, Thank you Carolyn for being a great and wonderful Mom and Mom-in-Law!   Love!
