Half of Sping Break 2009

So it's Spring Break this week and I have loved doing less and relaxing with the boys. It's nice not to have an obligation to fill or anywhere to be at a certain time and now that Mom is here with us ai even get to sleep in!! If the boys had their way we would spend this week inside playing the Wii or the DS. Yes we have hit the age of electronics. Everything is boring and they would rather be inside glued to the tv playing some sort of video game.

We have managed to drag them away from the games for some much needed outside and outdoor air time. We went out to Six Flags and rode some of the new rides that they opened up in their new kiddie area. The boys had a picnic outside in their fort one night for dinner and today mom and I took them on a 2.5 mile hike. Now we didn't realize that the hike was going to be quite so long and I would recommed actually looking at the parks hiking trail maps before you set off for your "leisurely" hike, but the boys had fun and they even asked for a nap after coming back from all the fresh air and walking. It was nice to get out with them and exercise and listen to them talking and singing "We're going on a bear hunt" song together. Memories were made and thats all that matters.
