Spring Break Staycation 2011


Today the boys returned to school after a week at home. Full-time. With me. Since we are all still standing and relatively sane, I am counting it a success. Actually (and I never would have believed this before the week started), I quite enjoyed it! We kept busy with playdates, swimming, a trip to the zoo, indoor camping, bowling, tennis, and a climb to the top of Stone Mountain.

*Small disclaimer: Jess was kind enough to take off a few afternoons and took the boys on some of these adventures.

We kicked off our night of indoor camping with a backyard cookout and marshmallow roast. S'mores!
Eliza chillin' by the "campfire." Then it was off to bed in the tent (which was set up in their bedroom).

The week's culminating event was a climb to the top of Stone Mountain, an approximately 2-mile hike, and pretty steep at points. The boys did great, and Miss Eliza loved it. She rode happily in the Bjorn, and I happily toted her up and down the mountain.


Summit!
