SB 2014

What do you do when Daddy has to spend over a week on the road over spring break?  You go with him!  It might not be a glamorous spring break, but we squeezed as much fun as we could out of the Embassy Suites!

Day 1 and 2
Swimming and hotel fun

Trent's "mad face"
                                             

Best big sis ever!

At an outdoor mall one evening, there was a short train ride.  Trent was in HEAVEN!  



We decided to surprise Grace with something she's been wanting for some time: pierced ears!  She did great through the first one, but the tears started when the second ear became a reality!





After ear piercing reward: trampoline jumping at the mall!


Day 3
US Space and Rocket Center




Day 4
Bowling Fun




Day 5
Sci-quest (one of my favorite small museums!)




Day 6
Yeah!  Birmingham!  The best part of the trip was hanging out with our cousins and family!  We hit Asher's baseball game and went out to eat.

Day 7: the zoo with Aunt Karen!  The kids loved it, and it was HOT (such a welcome feeling after this winter!), and they were able to ride a camel!  Finish it off with swimming with cousins, and the kids declared it the "best spring break ever."





Day 8
McWane Science Center

Grace and the bed of nails!  Last year, she wasn't happy about this experience.  This year, she was a champ!




 Grant and Grace holding each other tight in the hurricane machine!

We were so happy to go some place warm and with such loved ones near by!
