Monday morning marks the beginning of spring break. Which equates to two full weeks of sleeping well past 5:45. And nary a packed lunch in sight. {cue the angel chorus}.
We spent the weekend with Gram. I just adore her. That’s all there is to say about that.
The seven of us took in the new Alice in Wonderland film (used the fancy term for movie in honor of the Oscars) on Saturday. I give it a solid 1.5 thumbs up. There was just one part (maybe about 15 minutes or so) that sort of dragged for me. Though, Jeff, Torri, and Kennedy loved it in its entirety. Even Jayce and Cassidy were entertained throughout. It wasn’t too dark or scary for the kids (my kids, anyway). There was a very interesting storyline with an underlying positive message, especially for young girls. Oh, and we saw the 3-D version. Very cool.
It rained again today. We had minestrone and a fire. I love El nino years.
Have you heard that Black Eyed Peas song, “I Gotta Feeling?”
Well. This week? It’s gonna be a good, good week. I gotta feelin’.

LOVE that song! :) Have a super week!
I am surprised that you like the Black Eyed Peas! I wouldn’t minnd if they fell off the face of the earth personally. The R-word – can’t get past it.
Good to know about Alice. I was thinking we’d skip it. It’s never been one of my favorite stories anyway, and I’m leery of Tim Burton – I thought maybe it would be too dark. I’ll have to ask the girls if they’d like to go one day.
Have a great spring break! I can’t wait for ours, but we have a couple of weeks to go.
Exactly what I was thinking!
Though, it would be much better if I could fit you guys in my suitcase ;)
I just saw Alice In Wonderland last night, and was very surprised by how much I liked it. That was probably the only Tim Burton movie I’ve ever really enjoyed.
Sounds nice. Is everyone staying home for spring break this year?
Love me some black eyed peas…..not sure about the R word though??? they do have a few inappropriate songs, but we just skip those.
ahhhh spring break!
Wow two weeks for spring break?! We only get one here. (Not that it matters since I work full time). I took Aurora to Alice in Wonderland and we loved it too!
Its the little things in life, like sleeping in a little, not packing those lunches and having to be home for the bus, life is good.
