Winter Break

Boston has this very bizarre week vacation known as "winter break"!! Yes, it is in addition to Christmas holiday and Spring break!! So last week, I packed up the kids and flew to visit with my dad and Sandy. We had a blast! Dad took a couple of days off to "play" with the us. We went to an indoor water park, went shopping (of course), and visited the Air Force Airplane Museum. Brenden is finally tall enough to go on some big kid rides at the water park and rode a pretty scary ride! You lie face first on a mat and go flying down a tunnel to a huge slide into a shallow pool-lane. I was really impressed that he took on the challenge. Annie went under water (on accident) and came up sputtering, "I did it mom!" The museum was entertaining for all. The kids love seeing planes. Shopping was..well, shopping. Dad was kind enough to make all my favorite meals with no complaints!! Brenden beat dad boxing on the wii as well as taking Sandy in tennis. All very funny to watch!! The best part of the week was being together and making new memories.
