Spring Break 2014

Spring Break

2014 

Tex-Mex at our favorite place started off the break.  Ben took this photo as I reached for my phone.

We always end up in the book section of Target and Walmart.  We are a family of book lovers.  I'm glad the boys enjoy reading, too.

Ben and I watched Planes so, of course,  we needed our planes out while we watched it.

On Monday of the break we stopped by Mark's alma mater, East Texas State University, which is now Texas A&M-Commerce.

Dandelions mean Spring (and allergies) are near.

I only worked out twice over the break.  I'm sure I'll pay for that on Monday morning at workout.

Mark and I had fun day in Dallas.  The boys spent the night with his parents and we got to go to random places that the boys would hate, for example Crate and Barrel.  I loved this display there.  If we had a beach house, I'd want it to look just like this.

Will and Ben don't get to do all the fun stuff.  Even though they weren't with us, we went to our favorite froyo spot and had frozen yogurt for dinner.  

I bought some new TOMS for spring/summer.  My other pair is almost 4 years old and they finally got a hole.  These are the Hemp embroidered classic.  

We took the boys to see Mr. Peabody & Sherman.  I thought all of the history references were hilarious.  Very cute movie even if the boys didn't get all of the jokes.

This time change has been awful for us.  Ben has fallen asleep twice in the car and it's been crazy to get him to sleep at night when he wakes up.

We don't have any bedtime routines or rules when we're on a break.  Will was staying up extra late watching cartoons.  I hoped that would make the boys sleep late the next morning but no such luck.

It took me 10 tries to get this photo!  10!  They refuse to be still or pose.

They will be still if something interest them, like this Lego Movie sticker book.  They love the DK sticker books.  It keeps them occupied for hours.

On Friday of Spring Break my teacher friends and I had our annual shopping day.  We always have such a good time together.  We had lunch at Chuy's, shopped at North Park and Park Lane, had dinner at Thai Box.  Good food, good conversation, good fun!

Lush is one of mine and Kacie's favorite stores.  

Angie and Alichia are my other two friends who love to shop.  We usually have more teacher friends with us, but they had plans and couldn't make it this time.  We're already planning our summer shopping trip for June.

Spring Break 2014, you were great!
