Another week gone

Well Spring Break is gone and that means Summer break is coming.  We have roughly 43 school days left and summer break will be here.

Spring break wasn't a whole lot of fun since Makenzi was recovering from her surgery.  She did amazingly well though.  We went through lots of tylenol (over 2 bottles) since her prescribed pain meds made her so sick to her stomach.  I ate a whole carton of ice cream even though she only ate 1 bowl.  Her favorite food was McDonalds Fish sandwiches.  She did manage to lose about 8 pounds this past week which was expected.  Around Thursday (1 week post surgery) we finally seen a real turning point.  She was smiling again.  She got to have a little fun over spring break.  She spent a night at grandma's house with her cousin one night, was able to spend some time walking around the pond, riding the fourwheeler etc.

Saturday we took the kids to Ann Arbor to the Natural History Museum so they could see the Dinosaur exhibit.  They had so much fun.  Even Arianna who doesn't like dinosaurs (her words) enjoyed herself. 

Sunday the weather was beautiful so we spent the entire day outside.  We cleaned the yard, flowerbeds, went for walks, played catch with the baseball.  Poor Kenzi missed a throw from her dad and got hit right in the eye.  She has a nice black eye to go back to school with, but no big deal. 

Overall Spring break was long, but the last 4 days were fun!!
