This past week was Spring Break for the kiddos. We stayed home, but made it a point to do some fun things with the kids. Last Saturday, we went to the Science Museum.
I did a terrible job of taking photos, but we all had a great time. We stayed together while on the first level. As we were heading downstairs, Buddy saw that the lowest level had dinosaur fossils. He would not look at the middle level, so we had to split up. Derek and Punky looked at all the human body things while Buddy and I explored the dinos. They met up with us later.
Buddy met a boy while he was playing with plastic dinosaur figures. This boy was four days older than Buddy and they both shared a crazy love for dinos and animals. It was pretty funny watching them one-up each other with their dinosaur facts. There were lots of "dudes", "bros" and "man" thrown in too. It was kind of funny watching Buddy interact with another boy his age.
I still worked during Spring Break, so the kids went to daycare two days. We went swimming on my day off. We also dyed eggs, squeezed in a trip to the library, had a few lunches at restaurants, Punky had a playdate and we got up early one morning so we could get donuts at Hans Bakery. It was a fun week!
This Easter was spent with my parents. They came to our house, so that was fun. And a good choice too, since they apparently got 9 inches of snow!
We went to two Easter Egg hunts on Saturday- one at the local park and one at church.

| Buddy found a slug- he was just as excited for this guy as he was the eggs! |
We went to church this morning. We came home and I cooked our traditional Easter meal. I didn't mess anything up. Glad to have my mom's help!
Today is Derek's birthday. We didn't get to celebrate much, but he did get to take a nap. Hopefully we can celebrate a bit more next weekend! Happy Birthday Derek!
