Spring Break!

We had lots and lots of fun play dates planned for the week of spring break, starting with a date with Zach's gal pal, Soli. They have been a couple since his days in the preprimary class. Sure, Zach has moved into the older class now, but it doesn't stop this lovesick couple from finding a moment to clasp hands and giggle nearly every day! Even on spring break...

Early in the week, Vivi came down with the flu and an ear infection, so our plans had to be re-evaluated. A quick trip to the doctor after a record household high temp of 104, and she was on Tamiflu, the miracle drug. Within 12 hours, she was back to her normal self. We gave her the requisite rest, and were off to more adventures where she could rest comfortably in the stroller. Like the RODEO!


God bless Texas, it was a phenomenally fun affair. Not too many folks, plenty of healthy livestock to pet, and the rides... Zach is still talking about the helicopter he flew. Because it was just the 3 of us, I stayed with Viv while he braved the rides solo -- you should have seen him clinging to the black carosel horse for dear life. Apparently the carosel spins at warp speeds, but our boy accepted the challenge with a stiff upper lip; til the ride stopped.
