Keeping Busy During Spring Break

March 17, 2008 on 8:12 pm | In Blogging, Family | 2 Comments

My daughter is out of school this week and, because we have no travel plans for the week, I need to come up with some creative activities for us to do. We spent today playing our new board game, “Clue”. We own the junior version of the game but today we purchased the regular version and have all ready played a few rounds.

I was blog surfing earlier today (before our Clue marathon) and ran across infektia, a blog with a variety of information. The post that caught my eye today was More Hama Beads Creations with a picture of of the Super Mario Brothers inspired designs the blog author had created. It reminded me of the fact that we all ready own a huge bucket of those beads for creating anything our hearts desire, so I definitely am adding that to our calendar of things to do this week.  I’ve also purchased some flower seeds and planting containers, so we can work on getting our flower garden growing.

I’m just happy to have the week off from my alarm clock and I know my daughter deserves a break. She’s been working really hard at school and could use some downtime.

What do you do with your kids when they’re off from school?

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

2008 is speeding by in such a fashion that before we know it, it will be Christmas!  Okay, I need more time before Christmas arrives!

Valentine’s Day seems like it was just yesterday and now, here we are, it’s St. Patrick’s Day all ready.  Thursday will be the first day of Spring, thank goodness!  I think we’re all ready for that day to arrive.

Do you do anything special to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day?  There is always the wearing of green.  I will be wearing my green socks in honor of today.  I’m also making my daughter a green pancake for breakfast.  She has informed me that everything we eat today has to be green; I hope not!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all of my 2 or 3 readers, I appreciate you coming by! :-D
