Spring Break & Easter 2015!

It was a little bit of sun, little bit of sleeping in, little bit of get-togethers with friends, little bit of relaxing, little bit of busy, little bits of frustrations, little bit  LOT bit of coffee....but overall a whole lot of fun with my littles!!! Even if, just for a little bit, the hubs and I were doing spring break separately.
pre-church selfie! ;) Missing daddy already....

Can't believe this boy will be turning 10 soon!!!

A warm afternoon = Popsicles!!!

Austin's swing
 
Andy's 5-day trek to San Francisco with many of the art club students proved to be worth it, in every facet, as it was more than 'just a fun trip'. It brought classroom learning to life. It made textbook pictures of art a reality--seeing famous artworks up close and personal! It was eye-opening. It was a trip that at the most opportune times, provided some of those integral "life" conversations and realizations for quite a number of students. It was 5 days that were definitely filled with, um, adventure on many levels, but more importantly for some, this was a trip that will be looked back upon as a pivotal week.
