Spring Break

One of the things on Eli's list for spring break was to go to the park & go on a hike. We actually went to the park several times with the good weather and managed to go on a good hike one afternoon before the weather turned. It was a little over 2 miles and we did it without a lot of complaining or stopping! I remember the first time we attempted this hike after we moved here & it was much different. I think Tony ended up carrying both kids the last half of the hike. This time Eli even carried the backpack with the snack & drinks in it. My kids are getting so big!





We hiked to the river. It was the first time we have seen water flowing over the "waterfalls".



We found some trillium growing in the woods. So pretty.

Spring Break

So for our relaxing week of Spring Break we decided to paint & decorate both kids rooms!



Eli has a pirate room with a new bunk bed (pirate ship)! He sleeps on the top bunk & the bottom has become a landing spot for all the pirate adventures his little pirates have.


We chose a Blue Silver color (the one in the middle) for his walls, but I'm not sure the color translated quite right in the photos.







Adrienne has a new pink & green princess room with a loft bed. She loves having some extra play space under the bed & it really makes her floor look more open.

This is the color we chose for her walls.
