Last day of spring break

I really wanted to go see the cherry blossoms at the tidal basin today. But they haven't bloomed yet. 

Instead we had a random day. Hannah helped Grace with her hair. Which was so sweet. Then the girls and I went to Old Navy and got some shorts. Then we went to Kohls and Teariffic. Grace had enough at that point and Han was just warming up:) 

When we got home Grace and I dragged a blanket into the backyard and read chapters of The Secret Garden together. That's her novel for school right now.

The wind is perfect for kite flying. We got all the kites up except the tie fighter was hard and didn't quite get the altitude we wanted.  Anyway the kids had fun and E was bummed when he had to leave for soccer.

Grace is making 1234 cake for FHE treat. She learned the recipe at the maple syrup bush last weekend. 

Tomorrow it's back to normal. It was a good break.
