Year 2, week 32: Memories

Memories
By the Longs

This past week was our big first grader's spring break. We actually didn't go anywhere, but that doesn't mean we weren't totally busy. We all four were a bit under the weather and sort of had to take each day, by day. The family was able to cross off a lot of “to do” items that we had been putting off or not had time to do.



My husband and son put together a little wooden semi kit he received for Christmas last year. That doesn't sound that challenging, but the kit did not come with instructions, nor did the photos on the box match what the semi was going to look like when it was done.  Our little girl got to help paint the semi when it was all put together.



I was finally able to finish a Grinch themed quilt I had started before Christmas, yes I realize that it's April already. We also picked out the fabric for the curtain in our son's bedroom, due to the fact that his blinds self-destructed a while ago (photos in the future if I can figure out how to make curtains).



But perhaps the most exciting item we crossed of the to do list is that our little lady finally had a big girl bed in her own room. We tried having our kids share a room with each other, but they had just too much fun and were keeping each other up until way too late at night. So that was what I was excited to get done on spring break, but I'm assuming the littles were much more happy about a few play dates, video games, the Indianapolis Children's Museum, a book sale at the library, playing with cousins and going to see Captain Marvel, but who ever knows with those kids. I know for sure the three visits to the dentist probably wouldn't even crack the top 100 of what happened last week.

This week will definitely be a boy or a certain quilt or such.
