Spring Break

Hi all!
Today I have two words for you...
Spring
Break!

I'm not sure who's more excited,
the kiddos or us parents?! 
Andy & I take off during Spring Break,
so we look forward to our week of fun. 
This year we'll be working a few days,
but not our normal schedule. 
So to jump start our excitement I had my
Spring Break banner hanging 
when everyone came home on Friday afternoon. :)

As a special treat on Saturday, 
Andy took the boys for a men-only day.
They spent the afternoon with friends,
shooting guns & fishing.
Here's James first time shooting a REAL gun.

This is the can Joseph shot.
Does this child look like he's 
having a blast or what?! 
In all honesty I'm still a bit uneasy 
about the whole gun thing.
I thought it was a big deal 
to let them shoot airsoft guns.
But then, I'm a girl.
Which is why I spent my afternoon shopping.
In my book bargain hunting 
is the BEST form of hunting! ; >

So, wanna know what I was shopping for?
Well we discussed it and decided that our
Spring Break project would be fixing up our patio.
What better way to get things going 
than to look for color inspiration 
and pick up a few supplies?!
For less than $30 I picked up 
everything I need to freshen up the backyard.
HOORAY!

Several of my projects are already under way.
Check back later this week to see our progress.
I plan to have the big reveal by next weekend.
Still looking for inspiration for your very own
Spring Break project??
