The kids had Spring Break last week, and we did a whole lotta nothin'! It was exactly what we needed though. Lots of days sleeping in, playing together, hanging out in our pj's and watching some movies. It was chilly and drizzly a lot of the week, but when it warmed up on Wednesday, we had a picnic outside, caught some ladybugs, and played with our friends and neighbors.
Tyson took Friday off, so we went to the zoo. It rained all morning, so we didn't go until the late afternoon after Shane's nap. A lot of the zoo was under construction, so it was a little disappointing. We did get to see a baby giraffe and its mother very close up, and a very active tiger. He swam right up against the glass in front of us, and then came over to the fence too.
By the time I finally got my camera out, I got one picture of the tiger and then dropped my camera. The lens was open, so it jammed and my camera was dead. I was SO disappointed! Thankfully, after we got home, Tyson was able to pop the lens back out without damaging it, and it is saved! I am very relieved. I was a little stressed about adding another expensive item to the list of things we need to buy in the very near future.
Corinne and Matthew were less than thrilled about going back to school today, and I missed having them home all day. And, if I am being completely honest, I missed sleeping in too!! I am glad we had a relaxing spring break that started with Easter and ended with General Conference. It was just what we all needed to "recharge" a little.

Very cute zoo pictures. I'm glad your camera is okay... that would stress me out too.
I love the "sleeping in" part of spring break too! It may be what i look forward to the most!
