Vacation
And, so, for Easter we stayed in town...which is pretty unusual for us. I'm dead tired these days, falling asleep on the couch at 9pm...unheard of!
And you know, I thought I'd be able to rest. Pffff....Well the thing is, I'm just a little bit compulsive in the amount of things I want to do every day. Just a tad :)
And so I baked
And we went to the zoo
And we planted a really big vegetable garden
And we planted flowers
And we visited old town to look for a birthday present
And we went for long walks
And we had friends coming over
And we went to watch high schoolers do some ballroom dancing...and they were excellent
And I worked
And I worked some more
And we went for bike rides
And I made a new friend
And I went to a lunch with the other mothers in my son's class
And I went shopping
And we went to the farmers market and my daughter bought me flowers
And we packed for my son who was leaving the day after vacation for a fieldtrip with his class
Well, there is more but it's making me tired again :)

Are they Flamingos in the pic???
If they are then I'm going to be spinning in my chair - because I always thought they only came in concrete and sat in peoples front lawns!
It sounds like you've had a most wonder-full (and exhausting!) vacation....you are going to need another one to get over it.
Preferably on a sun soaked beach, sipping something cool & exotic looking - whilst twirling your toes in the sand! hehehe
I used to love these kind of holidays when my babes were younger - and I kind of miss them a little bit.
When you get a moment, you'll have to put up a photo of your gardens - so we can oooooooh & ahhhhhhhh at all your hard work ok??? hehe
oh yusss more pics of your garden so that I can steal some of your ideas :P
I wonder why vacations are always like that: exhausting! But you know what, I love them this way only, as if a week of vacation was a life: you do all what you can before it's too late! Life's precious, vacation even more :P
(btw, what's the difference between vacation and holidays, girls, I need your light here :)
Ms Penny,
You are a genius, I don't know why I didn't think about that: of course we need another vacation after the 1st vacation to rest from the vacation! Aaaah, a beautiful beach and a palm tree :)
Candy Froggie,
You are absolutely right: that's the only way to have a great vacation, especially with kids. And it feels so satifying when you accomplish a lot..especially when it's fun ;)
Now for the garden, I'm trying to take pics but I think my camera is broken: I've been able to do close up but the camera doesn't seem to want to focus on a larger frame..very unhappy, but I'll try again tomorrow :)
