Let's see:
We went to Union Point Park on Monday to eat pizza in the gazebo and feed the birds. It was a monsoon! We nearly got blown away, so we had to make a mad dash back to the car to finish our pizza & crazy bread. The storm blew away after a while and we were able to get out to feed the birds. Drake (predictibly) fell in seagull poo.
Afterward, we went to the library. Bart got four new books and proceeded to read three of them (chapter books) in less than twenty-four hours. Honestly, he was GLUED to the books. He was pulling a Skylar and walking from place to place without looking up from the book. While Drake napped, the Big Two retired to their favorite place to read and daydream....
Tuesday, Mom and Mimi came to visit. I had a dentist appointment. Bart and I had karate. We were told that there would be a belt test in May and that we were both eligible to be promoted to yellow belt (Bart is a jr. yellow belt right now) if we practiced hard enough. Yippee!!
Wednesday, we met Vanessa and the kids at Kidsville & then proceeded to crash her house because the wind was kind of chilly outside at the park.
Thursday we went with Vanessa and the kids to the Fossil Museum in Aurora. We've been once before, but how many times do you think a kid can dig for rocks in a dirt pile before they get tired of it? We found some really cool shark teeth and coral.
And then Good Friday - we hit the beach with George, who hates the beach "like you hate onions" (this is how George explained his dislike of the beach to Bart, who was incredulous that anyone could not like sand, sun, and water).
And Saturday? An egg hunt at church and a trip to the bookstore, courtesy of Mom's Easter gift to the Big Two. Bart is ready to keep on reading.
So there are a LOT of pictures on this post.
P.S. Thanks to lugging the world's most adorable baby around, my back is toast. Thanks, Lu.
