Spring Break!!

Despite the weather, the kids still had a great Spring Break. On Monday, Mike left for California and we just hung out around the house. On Tuesday, I took the kids to Toy's R Us. Kristian had A's and B's on his report card, so he got to pick out something. He got a skate board. Of course Dylan got something too and he picked out roller skates. Surprisingly he has done really well on them, considering how accident prone he can be! After that we went to Woodland Park and went to the Dinosaur Resource Center. I wasn't very impressed with it, but it passed two hours of the day and the kids had fun, that's what matters. After that we went to Garden of the Gods and had lunch. They serve Buffalo burgers and the boys loved them! We went for a walk after that and then headed home. On Wednesday we hung around the house so I could catch up on things around here and then ran into town to pick up some groceries, which the boys weren't that thrilled about. Thursday we went with some friends to Chuck E. Cheese. The kids had a great time. We stayed for about 3 hours and probably could've stayed all day and it still wouldn't have been long enough! After that I ran by the store and headed home. Tracy and the kids came over for dinner that night and to watch Survivor!! We had a great time. Friday Mike was supposed to be home around noon, but the airline over booked his flight. So he ended up not coming home till around 5 that afternoon, but they did compensate him with a free round trip ticket to anywhere in the continental U.S. So at least they did that! Me and the boys met him in town and had dinner at Johnny Carinos. On Saturday, I went to a scrap booking get together at Tracy's house and Mike worked on Tracy's brakes. I hadn't taken my scrap booking stuff out in probably over a year and actually had no desire to do so on Saturday, but once I got back into it, I had fun. On Sunday we went again to Garden of the Gods and walked around. We took Max with us and boy was he tired last night!! If only I could do that everyday! And now we are back to Monday. Which means back to school and work for Kristian and I. I reminded him that he only has 8 more weeks of school left. Which seemed to raise his spirits a little!

Well I guess that is it for this week. I hope that you all had a great week too. Until next time...
