Spring Break

Ten days off school provided lots of opportunities for Aaron and I to take some time off work and have fun family time and outings. We visited lots of parks, took lots of bike rides, hikes in the woods, went to the Michigan Science Center and saw the new Whales IMAX, did a Lowe's Build and Grow workshop, had family movie nights, and Kayla had LOTS of sleepovers!!

"Take a picture of me here!"

 "Now take a picture of me like this"

 "My turn Mom!"

 "Now take a picture of me like THIS!" Oh my, haha.

 Couch potatoes

We went to the air pressure show on the Science Stage and sat in the front row. Each experiment required volunteers from the audience and for one of them, Khloe raised her hand that she wanted to help. They asked for kids to keep their hands up that had April birthdays and so Khloe was chosen to go up on stage! She was so excited and ran right up there. I was cracking up so much... a bunch of older boys... and a 3 year old girl! She listened to directions carefully, followed all the rules and did just as she was supposed to for the experiment. It was so cute and I was impressed!

This girl loves to ride her scooter!

Movie nights always require LOTS and LOTS of blankets and pillows and cushions (like an absurd amount that you wouldn't even believe) and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of popcorn!

Kayla loves to be super cuddly and warm and snuggly in her softest pajamas while Khloe prefers as much exposed skin to the air as possible.

It's been awhile since these girls have swung a hammer, but we were back at it again at a Lowe's Build and Grow workshop building planters.

Two planters - check!

A mommy-daughter adventure in the woods is the perfect way for us to spend our evening each week while Kayla is at gymnastics
