Days 1 & 2

So we decided to hang out around in our area for our vacation this year.
Yesterday we headed to a local greasy spoon for breakfast, then played in a river along the bike path. The water was SO cold and the highlight was climbing up onto a rock to count fish!


We then went to the park, did some school shopping and headed to the spray park. Unfortunately, it is closed on Mondays, but we will visit it before the week is over.
We headed to the grocery store and the girls bought the ingredients for some recipes they wanted to make for dinner.
Our eldest learned to make a tater tot casserole at activity days, and she was thrilled to make it for us. Our youngest learned to make ants on a log at school so she made this for us along with a 3 layer jello concoction.

Today we put together some shelves for our garage. We then took the kids to piano lessons, and worked out while the kids had gymnastics, and then we all went swimming. To end the day, we took the girls and we all got our toenails painted.
