spring break (woo hoo!!)




Amelia had a brief spring vacation or as I hear it in my head every time , Spring Break WHOO HOO! I only had one day off to spend with the kids, so my friend Angela and I thought Suson Park would be fun. I had been once, but it was when Amelia was about a year old. The weather up to this day had been perfect so park and a picnic lunch was planned. Until the weather forecast called for overcast, rain and a cold front! boo! So instead, we decided to take the kids to the craft caboose. The kids had a blast! They all painted a wooden silhouette, then picked a smaller 2nd project. Lucas chose a wooden dino for his first project and a lion sun catcher for his 2nd. Amelia choose a wooden butterfly to paint and then made a wooded Ariel for her 2nd craft. It was a great place for a cold spring day! The owner was super helpful, had lots of patients and even had a super cute puppy in the back room! We will definitely be going back over the summer.


More than once, I have heard about the sugar shack. It is an old time candy store that also sells cake pops. The cake pops were reportedly pretty heavenly. I was quite excited to try one. The place was darling. Lots of old touches, and a small cubby for the kids with chalk wall all around. Only one thing was missing - the cake pops! The cake maker takes the month of April off!! We were 5 days too late! She also advised us to call next time to make sure she had them! oh well, better luck next time! We still had a great time!
