Kate and Josh were on Spring Break last week. My mom made a spur-of-the-moment decision to fly up and see us, which was very exciting and most helpful because Josh had a PILE of school work to do over the break. So grateful for how she loves and serves us...she really was a huge help to me, and freed Josh up to get lots of studying done. Plus we had FUN :)
There is a great childrens' museum in downtown Raleigh that we took the kids to one day. It was a whole different experience this time with Hudson running around with the big kids...he's almost technically a big kid now himself!! Last time we went to the museum (last year for Kate's field trip), Hudson rode in the Ergo the whole time. But he was definitely in the mix this trip!! Thankful Mom was with me to help keep tabs on them!
Carter found these crutches in the dress-up section and said "Hey, Mommy, look! I'm like Daddy!!" Guess it reminded him of when Josh had his ankle surgery last fall :)
We try to take each of the kids out on a date as often as we can, but it was an extra special treat for Kate to get to go on a Mimi-date to the Tea Room!! They had so much fun and did a little shopping afterwards. Great way to end a wonderful visit! Love you Mimi!!
It wouldn't feel like Spring Break without a trip to the beach, right?! Our sweet friend Rachel Babb invited us to join her mother and Justin at their family place on Sunset Beach for the weekend!! It's a short 3 hour drive and we jumped at the chance to get away! Could not have asked for better weather...it was absolutely perfect.
I wish this picture showed how much sand was all over Hudson. He was covered from head to toe, literally. And didn't mind one bit!
Mrs. Babb let Kate and Carter "clean up" the beaters after making homemade 'cookies and cream' ice cream...yummo!
Kate didn't mind the frigid ocean temps...she was in the water a good bit. I love this sassy girl :)
Rachel was so good to go jump waves with Kate...now that's a true friend b/c the water couldn't have been any more than 60 degrees...brrr...
