random fun

Over Spring Break I tried to come up with lots of fun things for the boys every day. We've been really busy latley, so I wanted to the week to be nothing but fun. Aside from the pink eye Eli came down with half way through the week that cancelled the rest of our outings, we still had a fun week with no schedules to follow for a change.

The boys had a great time playing with the papier mache space helmets we made on our first days of Spring Break. Here they are in their space shuttle crashing....see how Zach is reaching to save Eli from falling out of the shuttle? Crazy kids.

Zach's helmet. Look at those handsome blue eyes!

...and of course Eli and his handsome greens in his helmet.

The boys posing in their helmets for the camera.

We spent a day at Omsi...and learned lots about dinosaurs. We got to watch a Omnimax movie on them, the boys loved it.

Im really confused as to why I didnt take any pictures of Eli on this morning, but this is St Patricks Day. The kids reminded me for days to clean all their green clothing, including their green halloween frankenstein socks. So to make the day even more green, I cooked green eggs and green sausage.

Zach was convinced he was going to turn green and ran to the bathroom every few seconds just to make sure he hadnt.

What a beautiful rainbow!

Zach is like an elephant, once he has his mind set on something he wont ever let you forget. About a month into preschool this year he decided when it was letter S day that he would bring strawberries for snack to share with his friends. Weekly he'd ask me if we were almost to S day. It was beginning to wear on me, so I was so thankful when S day arrived! We spent the afternoon covering those yummy "S"trawberries in chocolate.
