The Spring Break "Theory"


I love Spring Break.
Well, actually, I love a "break" from almost anything.
This year, the weather did not cooperate in giving my much needed break from Winter weather, so I decided to take a break from other things instead. Things like laundry (not one load), cooking dinner, and if I dare admit it, washing my hair. I would've preferred a break from the frost, but one takes what one can get, right?
I think I may have let my brain go on break also, because I am quite sure I didn't do a whole lot of productive thinking. In fact, I don't think my brain has come back yet. Today I drove away from the gas station with the entire gas hose still connected to my gas tank. It broke, and lots of people laughed and shook their heads at me.
I did remember to get my coke though...
Anyway, last week during our "break," we did a few fun things and enjoyed Easter. Here are the pictures.
We ate at Hires:


We Went to the Children's Museum:



(Deak had had it after about an hour.)

(Yes, Deak is kicking the Bunny.)

We Jumped and Dyed Eggs:



We Had a Hunt:





We also saw Hannah Montana, made lots of yummy things, and Ab went to a baby animal festival.

Now....BRING ON THE BREAK FROM THE COLD!

(And let's lose the break from my brain.)

You're lucky nothing bad happened with the whole "gas" thing! Glad you had a good week and that pic is too funny with Deak kicking the bunny - ha ha!!!

I have done the drive away from the gas pump thing...

Jenny H said...

Thanks Brandi. That dress was a steal I found at Nordstrom Rack...I was lucky.
I'd have to say Lily is the best dressed chick around.

LOL, I take a break from my brain all the time, or vice versa.

Sound like a great "Break" to me. We spent ours sick! The only fun thing we did was go see Hannah Montana. You kids are adorable... as usual.

Megan said...

I love that people I admire and look up to also take breaks from washing their hair. :)
Could your kids get any cuter? Sheesh.

Deak, I totally understand the kicking the bunny thing. LIKE the real Easter bunny wears a vest! Duh!

Also, my hubs has totally done the pull away from the gas station thing with the hose still attached thing. Did you stop to see what the gas station said?

I only wash my hair maybe 3 times a week. SHhhhhhhhhHHHH! Don't tell ANYONE!

Thanks for the nice post below Jenny. Although the longest I ever work out is 2 and 1/2 hours. Sleeveless is fine, as you already know my views. I'd kick the bunny too.
