Taking a Break on Spring Break

With the arrival of Easter so came the arrival of Spring Break.  This year we decided to "take a break on Spring Break" and not do too much.  Our week was filled with sleeping later than usual for D and staying in PJ's until lunchtime.  We even spent one day doing absolutely nothing!!  In addition, we did the little things that we haven't had a chance to do like getting D's haircut, which he NEEDED; a trip to the movies to see The Lorex in 3D (quite a good movie I might add), as well as a visit to Grandma's and Grandpa's. 

By the week home was not so much fun and road trips were in order.  So off we went to the Turtleback Zoo on Saturday.  We had never been and it is quite a nice little zoo.  Much to D's happiness the zoo was having a celebration for the wolves as it was their birthday.....

And of course there was a trip to the Reptile House to see the snakes.  As you can see, he is very excited about this....


And since the weather was awesome here, on Sunday we traveled to Mystic, CT to their aquarium for the day.  On arrival the beluga whales were being feed so someone found a prime spot and watched the action.  


We also got to see some seals who were swimming outside.......

All and all a great way to spend Spring Break.  Now it is just a few more weeks to GRADUATION for someone!!!
