Spring Break Fun

We stayed home during spring break but still had lots of fun. Lauren had a new friend over from school, one of her many "bff's" (yes, they even have necklaces). 
We took Sadie to get pedicures with us, it was her first time and she LOVED it. 
 The girls were so cute together. 
After pedi's Sadie had a sleepover. 
The next day we were off to the zoo. None of us were in great moods, I wouldn't say it was the most fun we've ever had at the zoo but there were some fun moments here and there. 
 Hadley had a sleepover and helped us babysit Jodie. Not sure who had more fun, Jodie or Hadley. 
 It cracks me up that Ben sits and plays with the baby toys just like Jodie. They are really cute together. 
The sun came out for an hour and we jumped on the chance to get out of the house and go to the park! 
Dug in the compost bin for bugs. Found a few, it was really exciting. 
We ended spring break with a trip to Bellingham. We went to the farmer's market on Saturday- love their farmer's market, always a fun place to hang out. 
We watched the same "circus" street performers that we saw last year. They call themselves "Strangely Jeremiah" and it is fitting...
They are quite entertaining and the kids got a kick out the show. We all had some good laughs actually. 

 And of course, when we got back to the house Lauren and Ben had to recreate the show! 
We saved the best for last and ended our trip today with a nice visit with sweet baby Lily. Our family is completely in love with her. The kids were smitten and it was darling to watch. 

 They just sat and stared at her and commented on all her little faces, noises, and movements for an hour or so. It was the sweetest thing ever.
A great end to a great week. 

It was fun to stay up late, have friends over, and not be on a schedule...but
 this mama is happy that school starts tomorrow!!!!!
