{Spring Break Glimpses}

happy sunday friends
we have had a busy fun filled week
lots of shopping
lots of play
lots of reading
lots of cleaning and decluttering
lots of smiles
lots of love

the girls were on spring break this week
so just like during the summer, my one and a half hour nap time/alone time
changed to watch me dance/paint/play/ride time
but that's ok
it's all good

dave happened to be out of town last week too, which was a total bummer
but we made the best of it
pancakes for dinner and all

the girls really wanted to go to chicago with daddy for the week
but the thought of the four of us wandering around the city by ourselves all day really didn't appeal to me that much...is that bad?

so to satisfy their need for a hotel bed and pool, we surprised them last saturday and took them to indy for the night
{they love it when we surprise them with a trip we have done it three times before, once even to disney about three years ago you should see that video it is priceless}

we had a ton of fun swimming,

having a fancy dinner out 

and  eating tons of ice-cream

I even got a chance to wander around Anthroplogie

alone

never been before and wow

that store is awesome

way to pricey for me, but still fun

everything was great till the power went out in our room 

our whole side of the hotel actually

we spent about four hours in the lobby with 100+ other people 

lots of basketball fans and a few girls soccer teams

the girls loved it cause they kept bringing out free food to make everyone happy

i guess they figured bags of sun chips and bakery fresh cookies would do the trick

it did

for awhile

finally at 11:30pm we could take it no more and got another room

we were holding out to try and get our suite back 

but instead we all had to squeeze into a regular room 

dave had to be escorted back to our original room by flashlight and

had to carry all our "stuff" up and down 8 flights of stairs

did I mention it was dark

and late

it was after midnight before we all got to sleep

lets just say no one moved till well after 8

everyone was smiling after our free breakfast and

another trip to the pool

they comped the room and gave us another night for free

so I guess all the drama payed off in the end right?

we spent the rest of the week doing all the little things we love to do

and adjusting to our crazy spring weather

we went from shorts on tuesday

to being snowed on coming out of panera thursday morning

crazy

riley dressed aubrey up for a photo shoot

pretty cute if i do say so myself

hope your week was a fun filled one too

minus the drama that is...

have a happy night,

cindy
