End of Spring Break!

What a weekend! Lots of fun packed in to the last few days of spring break! Friday was Aiden’s half birthday~and such a busy one! The boys spent the day in Lake Placid and then drove home just in time for Aiden’s rehearsal. First night of blocking and no surprise, he nailed it! It’s so fun watching him on stage, really makes me bean with pride! This kid has big dreams, even at 9 1/2 he already dreams is being a star! 

No matter what, I promise to always support his dreams! These weeks of rehearsal after rehearsal will be interesting- I keep waiting for Aiden to come home bored or annoyed or frustrated~ but no. He just loves it. Every single minute, he just loves it. So to celebrate his half birthday, he really wanted blackened grouper~ unfortunately its season and the wait for a restaurant is enough to drive us all crazy! So we ended up picking up dinner, going home and watching a movie. Aiden just finished the first Hunger Games books so he wanted to watch it! 
Saturday I had rehearsal for Rutter Requiem and then we drove out to the Panther Refuge open house (thank you P~Nicholaus for the invitation!) ~ a beautiful drive, a fun swamp buggy ride, an archery lesson and some exploring! 













 Saturday morning was a funny morning~ the boys woke to tiny stickers leading them to the kitchen... and lucky treats for St. Patrick’s day!


Bennett was easily convinced that “Lucky” from his classroom was in our house. Aiden on the other hand played along... or I thought he was playing along... until he found me quietly in the bathroom getting ready for rehearsal, and came in by himself saying, “Mommy, did you do that? Or Daddy? Leprechauns aren’t real, right?!” Well, the fact that he even came in and asked, just tickled me to no end, so of course I played along! “What do you mean? I did what?!” 
At least I left the question in his mind...
After the visit to the Panther Refuge, we had an unplanned afternoon~ what????!!!! 
The afternoon was so great because we didn’t have anywhere to be, or time to be someplace, and just played outside until the sun went down!  These sweaty boys are to fun to be with!


Especially fun thinking about the news that Papa is half Irish! Which means the boys are part Irish too! And can finally wear fun St. Pats shirts with true Irish heritage! 
Sunday was a busy church day but Bennett’s wish was to go to the pool~ to Fun and Sun we go!






Great weekend!
