Day O Fun

Oh, if every weekend could end with a holiday Monday. :)

This morning I had boot camp, but the kids and Lehr were both off, so I came home to a peacefully sleeping house. I did some quick edits before they all woke up and then we hit the ground with fun stuff. While Lehr didn't consider it 'fun', Eli wanted to do BodyRock (a workout), so we did that first. Then we all had breakfast together, which is rare, even on the weekends. We did not have the "IHOP" breakfast, but it was close.

After we ate, we packed up some water and snacks and went for a hike. Eli has been more and more interested in history lately due some recent lessons on US Presidents. Since Kennesaw has cannons from the war at the top of the mountain, they served as great motivation to get him through the hike. Maddux did a lot of falling down due to her inability to travel at any speed other than 'full throttle'. She will have a nasty bruise (or four) on her leg, but is fine otherwise.

After our hike, we came home and played outside for the rest of the afternoon. It was such a nice, spring-like day today that Eli and I even played a game of chess outside, just to be outside. We finished off with dinner at our favorite pizza place. Both kids ate so much that we ate two full pies. I guess that much fun works up an appetite!
