We had fun for Spring Break. My hubby stayed home the whole week and we ate out WAY too much. Lots of park visits.

Heather said...

Our Spring Break is already over. We played at Chuck E Cheese, saw Alice & Wonderland and went to the park. It was just enough for my 3 kids.

We had spring break last week. We didn't do anything special except that my oldest son turned 18! In honor of his birthday, getting his Eagle AND his Duty to God we went and saw "Alice & Wonderland" and ate Chinese. The rest of the week was spent relaxing :)

Our spring break will be bittersweet. I am taking our girls to visit my parents for the week which is the sweet part. The bitter part is that I will be helping to take care of my dad who is going through radiation for brain cancer. This will probably be our last spring break with him. The range of emotions will be hug next week. Enjoy every moment of life. :)

I didn't have my kiddo for spring break this year. Last year we just hung out at the park alot. Next year we might go camping.

I'll be putting my older children to work "Spring Cleaning" the house!! My little ones, a 3 year old and 2 year old can bask in the glory of "being too young still" for a short while longer. Later in the week they can pick their adventure; bowling, putt-putt, movie, etc. I'm certain there will be way to much eating out!

AZsunshine90 said...

For our spring break we are planning on spending it planting veggies in the garden, playing with friends and seeing family. We can hardly wait!

Our spring break was last week as well and it was fun, we went to Galveston watched some movies and was lazy a lot. Saturday though we had a bad car accident on 610 South and totaled our car but we were all ok but it was not a fun way to end the break for my 8 year old.

We had a great spring break. We had a ton of family and friend time which we all loved.:)

Katie said...

We are done with Spring Break also. We didn't do a whole lot...had some of my kids go to cousins homes to stay overnight and had cousins come our way to spend the night. My kids all complained last night about having to go back and BEGGED me to keep them home one more day! I am a pretty cool mom as far as that goes...but not that cool! I was ready for them to go back! :)

Just got back from Spring Break. Baseball camp for my son and lots of relaxing.

Missy said...

We went to Austin to see the capitol building and the Texas History Museum. We also went to Wonder World in San Marcus. We had not planned on taking the entire week off, (we homeschool) but my son met the new neighbor kids and it turned into major Star Wars city around here. We have never had neighbor kids his age, so I couldn't resist letting him play all week with them!

Ben and Mel said...

My Husband and my kids had spring Break from school (no such luck for me... WORK WORK WORK) We just enjoyed more time together than usual and some good ole outdoor time... OH I did catch up on Coupon shopping since hubby was home to watch the kids! YEA!!!

Megan said...

I was completely spoiled! We had a girl's getaway. My mom, sister, sisters-in-law and our daughters met up in NM. We had mini classes (I gave some great coupon tips and people were furiously writing,) we rode the world's longest tram, went to Old Town, Alb, ate out,visited the ABQ Temple, shared recipes, and got pedicures. Then, we had to go home. :(

Growth in God said...

we just got off our Spring Break, we did not go anywhere, but stayed home and worked in the house. My two boys changed bedrooms- I redid both and worked on some furniture remodeling for my oldests room, which came out wonderful. My husband and I continued to work on a spare room that will be our storage pantry for stockpiling. It is getting closer but probably have a couple more weekends before it is all done.- Great giveaway

Therese said...

We had a very relaxing week, we went the the Childrens Museums,played at the park and took the kids fishing. What a blast!!! rptherese@yahoo.com

Tracy said...

Our Spring Break was last week. Part of the week, my husband's back was out, so that was no fun. However, by God's graciousness, he is back on his feet again. Each boy had his turn spending the night at he grandparent's house getting spoiled. I took them to the circus last night, and then out to eat. It was a lot of fun.

Well, I'm a teacher in Houston, and our spring break was last week ~ it was spent getting some sun, playing with my dog, and enjoying being lazy!

Kirsty said...

My kids will be staying with my parents, down the street, while my husband and I work!

AdoptiveMommie said...

I am in school full time & my spring break was last week. My 3 year old had surgery the week before spring break, 2 days later we discovered he had contracted a lovely case of hand foot & mouth disease. So my son & I spent the week watching movies, playing wii & coloring. It was very fun to do nothing!

Unknown said...

Well our springbreak was pretty low key. Once I got home from being sick, we spent most of the days at my Mom's house. Even though I didn't think it was too exciting, the boys had a great time with their cousins and just being outside playing. We should all be as easily entertained as our kids. :)

andrea said...

We don't have anything special planned.

Heinze Fam said...

We went to the park last week and enjoying the nice weather. I also took my toddler and my baby to Kroger in the morning to help them adjust with the timing. My 2 yrs old toddler loves to do grocery and push the cart by herself. Thank goodness, Kroger has the cart for kid size available. It was very fun and entertaining to do grocery with my kids.

Sunny said...

We are just starting Spring Break here and don't have a whole lot planned. Getting some spring cleaning and organizing done and some quality time on the Wii. I believe the library is in our future for some big projects the kids have going on at school.

My spring break was last week- and I got to spend time with my mom, clean house, and do homework. And my hubby took a day off to spend with me!!

Suzanne Earl said...

I'm not very lucky at winning- but I'll give it a shot! We went to Sea World and saw Baby Shamu, who was born in January! Who knew a 350 lb. whale baby could be soo cute!

Well my tifani isn't in school yet, but all her cousins and aunties have vacation, so we always have visitors.

We're going up to Illinois to visit my family, and I'm so excited. My sisters will finally get a chance to meet my nine-week-old son! I'm pretty sure I will not see Baby all week unless it is to feed him or change a poopy diaper. ;-)

Ryan said...

I had a WONDERFUL spring break! I spent a few days up in Dallas with family, and then spent the rest of the time enjoying law school-free days of doing absolutely NOTHING! :)

The Benson Family said...

Well we started our spring break with my son's 3rd birthday party; since the weather is nice this week we are going to try to spend as much time outside as we can...going to parks and the zoo, and anything else we can think of because if we don't do it this week I'll be too bogged down by school :(

TheHappyNeills said...

Spring Break here was last week, but our kids are not in school yet, so it was just typical. This weekend, however, we're taking our 2 kids on a little trip before our next baby arrives via adoption! Sort of a Babymoon!

Sick hubby, then sick kids. Not much that can be done.

It is hard work to have fun. We went to the rodeo twice, the zoo, skating, and to sylvan beach! Understand why I'm tired!

My husband and I will be having a 24 hour date where we farm the kids out to grandparents, and then he will be taking our oldest boys camping for 3 nights. (I'm NOT a camper!)

wifeeonline said...

We had out spring break last week also. We had made baby blankets for the Disney "Give a day, Get a Disney day" and used our free Disney passes. When then drove 2 days to the Washington State coast to spend a few days with the kids grandparents. It rained while we were there but it was a really nice time at a really nice place and I didn't have to pay for it. It then took us 2 days to drive home again but the kids were troppers and did fabulous. All in all an enjoyable trip was had by all.

We enjoyed the amazing weather we had in Houston and went to the zoo, the park (almost every day), decorated our driveway with sidewalk chalk and just tried to soak up every ray of sunshine!

We ended up staying home for the week. We got to sleep in. We had some get-togethers with family and friends. We just relaxed. It was perfect!

For SB this year I'll be at Girls Camp (pretty much the opposite of a 'break', in spite of being the first trip without the kids). In S. FL they have it then rather during the blazing summer. We don't have a Kroger out here but a GC would be great for our trip out West this summer!

we are planning three days at a nearby lake (with a cabin). I had a stroke last week (though I am only 49) and our spring break is next week. I am hoping to still go because i really want to spend this time with my two youngest who are still at home and my husband. he has taken the week off which we are all looking forward to. from hospital air to fresh lake air. i can hardly wait!

Michele said...

Well, my kids are 3, 1 and 3 months...so I don't really get a spring break yet:-( But I hope to see a few of my teacher friends who will have the week off.

We don't get spring break. We're supposed to get two days before and one day after Easter. We're in a snow and ice zone and have 6 days of school to make up. We're down to Friday off of school. The kids will just be thrilled it's supposed to be in 70 degree's! They probably won't be thrilled when they spend their days picking up sticks!
