February Break

February break always seems to sneak right up on me.  I feel as if we're just getting into a routine after Christmas break and then it is here; however, once it is here I am always so thankful for the week off!  We didn't go anywhere but had a great week being out of the school routine.

Joseph kicked off the week with a sleepover at the Laugesens for Jake's birthday.  

 We spent a good amount of time at the parks just hanging around :).

 Hanging with the Botero crew one afternoon at the WW club.

Picnic at the park while Joseph had baseball practice.  

 And lots of jumping on the trampoline!  

 

Our new neighbors, Lindsay and Riley came down thsi week to jump and the kids just adore them.  They are the sweetest girls ever-so friendly and personable and are such good role models for our kids.

Crazy trampoline hair!  

 The view doesn't get old.

 We also celebrated Cole's birthday at Nani and Poppa's so that was a lot of fun.

 We also had sleepovers with the Ozeck and then played in Coronado for the day!

The weather was kind of crazy this week though-we had a few really nice, sunny days but then a few rainy days and even had hail!  We met up (or tried to meet up) with Linz and Finn on Thursday at a park that we had never been to and it was sunny when we arrived but after 15 minutes it started pouring and hailing!!!  The kids got such a kick out of it!  We were hiding under the slides and were totally drenched, but nothing that a stop at the Starbucks drive-thru for hot chocolate couldn't fix!

 We even found hail in the parking lot of Ralphs on the way home!

 Lots of pretty rainbows this week!

 And more hail that night!  It was actually sticking to the ground-it was crazy!

Of course Joseph is in shorts!

 And, of course, Daddy decided to make a hail angel!!

We could even see snow on the mountaintops!

 Charlotte, Julia and I were the smart ones and stayed inside!

 We spent Friday afternoon at Jen's cul de sac, per our normal Friday tradition.

 We ended the break with Joseph and Cole going fishing with Poppa and Bubba for a belated birthday celebration for Cole since it was rainy on his actual birthday.  They didn't catch anything but had an awesome time.

 Back in the routine on Monday but it was such a nice week and am so thankful that I get to be home with these kiddos to spend it with them.
