SPRING BREAK

Last year, our spring break just sucked. No sugar coating it. Failed camping experience. Failed splash pad experience. Failed everything. I was determined to make up for it this year and boy did I deliver. We were nonstop on the go. So much so that I forgot my camera a of couple times in the rush of things. It turns out my kids have as much boundless energy as I do, which is great because they didn't have much down-time last week. Here's all that we did:
