spring break

good old fashioned spring break in calgary




ivy!




last year for spring break, we spent 3 weeks in oahu.  best. trip. ever.

this year, spring break snuck up on us and we found ourselves feeling frantic like we missed the "spring-break-get-the-heck-out-of-the-cold-train".  we had no plans, no destination and everything last minute was wicked pricey.  what to do?  must  get  out  of  the  snow  and  cold.  .  .  .  .

we decided to head to british columbia to mom and dads cabin for a few days.  it would be a good break and different scene/better weather??!!???  pleasssse?????  nena and the kids decided to come too.  the more the merrier!  how has spring break been going?  good news, we have pretty much hung out in our pajamas all week.  went into town...  in pajamas.  bowling?  pajamas.  c.j. and the kids built a makeshift rocket out of a root beer bottle and a bunch of other stuff laying around.  let's go shoot it off!  sure!  in pajamas!  who wants pizza? pizza pajama party... in the restaurant.  yeah for spring break!  it's been relaxing and pajama-ish.  can't been that... {except for 3 weeks in oahu}


p.s.
nena's little ivy is having surgery on her eyes on friday.  they need to straighten them out {see above}. it's going to be like a whole new world to her when they are all fixed up.  will be praying for you little sister.  it will all work out.

p.p.s
so bummed.  didn't make the project selvage cut.  by the looks of it, i wasn't what they were looking for. rats.
