We just finishe our full and fun Spring Break. Scott and I got a chance to go on a little getaway to the Little Apple. He needed to meet with his professor to plan out what classes he needs to take for the next 4 years! So I went along with him and we celebrated our Anniversary 3 months late. We stayed at the Morningstar Bed and Breakfast and went to eat at a very fancy restaurant. Think chandeliers and rack of lamb with a chocolate and cinnamon olive oil sauce.
Another highlight of the week was Scott got a new truck! We are a Toyota family now. He got a Toyota Tacoma Prerunner. I didn't take any pictures of it. It rained almost the entire week, so the truck was all muddy. So now the big white truck needs to go and we are not buying another vehicle until one of them won't run anymore or won't be worth fixing.
We also cheered on the Jayhawks to the final four this week! We are all Kansas school fans. It doesn't matter if it's KU, KSU, PSU, ESU, WSU, we go for them all.
At the end of the week it cleared up so we headed outside to do some yard work. We still had leaves to deal with, and the kids helped pick up trash. Some of the trash was ours, but how did McDonalds wrappers, candy bar wrappers, and chips bags get there? Oh yeah, it's pretty windy here sometimes!
Brooke had a good time in the sandbox. Between the sand, drool, snot and hair in her eyes she looked pretty rough!
And look at all those bags of leaves.
Another thing we did was start growing some sunflowers and Zinnias. I used some old egg cartons and let the kids plant and water the seeds. (See previous post.) They sprouted in a couple of days and the kids check on them every few hours. They change so fast! Soon we will be able to plant them in our yard. The plan is for the sunflowers to grow along the back fence and the zinnias will help decorate the mailbox.
