SPRING BREAK! Be jealous, all of our non-teaching friends :) While Chance and I do love our jobs, it is so nice to have breaks like this during the semester.
Cade's "vacation" started a little early with a visit from Oma and Opa last week. I had to attend a 4-day yoga conference (another perk to teaching - required conferences like this!) and Chance was gone part of the weekend at a powerlifting meet, so Oma and Opa were on full Cade duty! This is the longest I've ever been away from my little guy, and no amount of learning about or relaxing with yoga takes the place of his sweet smile and strong hugs. I was glad to come home to him and Chance! Cade had a great time with Oma and Opa. He convinced them to take him to Chuck E. Cheese twice, and they also saw the Lorax movie, fed the ducks, went to the library, and did lots of playing. Thanks, Mom and Dad, for taking such good care of Cade!
To officially start our spring break, the fabulous Hull family visited us! We had a delicious trip to Wings and More, followed by cookies and playing at our house. Karen and I tried multiple times to get the kids together for a picture, and this was the best one!
Thanks, guys, for stopping through College Station! It is always so great to see y'all.
On Tuesday night, thanks to Russell, we had free tickets to the Aggie baseball game. This was our first time to visit Olsen Field at Bluebell Park, and that place is amazing! Say all you want about changing the name... it was money well spent! There is lawn seating right next to the new playground, which is perfect for families. That place was hoppin'! They also had a great selection of food, so we all had our favorites - Cade: hotdog; Chance: sausage wrap AND fajitas; Alyssa: Doubledaves pepperoni rolls. One happy family! It really was a perfect night.
Cade loved the playground so much that all we really saw of him was his back! He was especially excited when a few of his friends from daycare showed up and they could all run around together.
He was actually patient enough to interrupt his playing for a cute smile!
Today we had a picnic at the neighborhood playground. Cade's favorite part? Throwing rocks in the ditch!
Chance joins in.... "Look how far that one went, Daddy!"
Can't be all fun and games... we had to work on the landscaping today!
We're about to be off on our next spring break adventure... tagging along with Chance to a powerlifting meet!

how did you get Chance to wear anything "Aggie" related?
Perfect combination of a request from Cade and my faculty discount at the MSC bookstore
