Spring Break!

Whew! The school week is over and Spring Break has begun! Even though I was surrounded by sickness all week, I have seemed to escape it. Just a lingering headache is still irritating me.

Started the day off by taking Mom to get her car from the mechanic. Then we headed off to the vet to get Fawn a refill on her medicine. Then off to the Catique. When we stopped in last week, there was a beautiful oil painting of a beach that immediately caught my eye. The store was closing in 20 minutes, and I couldnt decide if I wanted it. See, I am trying to veer away from buying things that I really dont need. I form of discipline I guess, plus I'm trying to cut down on clutter. I walked out without it, but I thought about it all week, and I knew I really wanted it. So today, I walked out with it, and also with a big smile. Seth hung it up over our bed, and it looks beautiful. We also left with a large, purple plastic easter egg that Lauren just had to have. 25 cents is worth her happiness, lol!

We have started to watch a miniseries on HBO called True Detectives. Holy crap, it is great. I highly recommend it.

Lauren starts her gymnastics classes tomorrow. She seems to be pretty excited. I know I am! This is a new experience for her, and I think it will be a great one. I feel so lucky to live in a city where there are so many opportunities for children with special needs. I know our property taxes are a lot higher than we would be elsewhere, but it is completely worth it. Westerville City Schools are wonderful, and that is one area that we feel is very important, no matter the cost, within reason of course.

We will be leaving on Monday for Carolina Beach, and I have not put anything together yet. I'm a little bummed that a cold front has decided to push through while we are there, but it wont keep me from beach combing and enjoying the view. We have an indoor pool where we are staying, so at least the kids will get to swim. The rest of my weekend will consist of laundry and packing, but Seth is being a huge help in getting everything in order before I leave.

  1. Have a great time on vaca! Glad you got the beach picture. Hope Lauren's gymnastics day is awesome. I like that you haven't really prepared for your trip that just means it will be relaxing. Drive safe and post pics! Wishing you a great shell find.
