Easter Break

So today is the last day of Easter Break for Brad.  He took the last 5 days off, which was really nice!  We obviously didn't leave the house, but we did have some fun playing games, watching movies and hanging out!

Alison has perfected her standing back tuck, Drew has rediscovered "Cars" and Lauren is organizing the "AMA" (Adopt Me Awards) with a friend she has made through playing Roblox.  Her IBF (Internet Best Friend, I guess it's the modern day pen pal.)

We also watched "Wreck-It Ralph" and "Ralph Breaks the Internet," both of which were very entertaining, well thought out and creative in terms of how the inside of a video game looks.

We had a great time playing Scattergories and the girls have discovered Words with Friends.

The weather was absolutely glorious!!!  Really warm and sunny, so we were able to spend a lot of time outside and had all the doors open on the patio.

Brad and I also joined Alison in her gymnastics conditioning and it is REALLY hard!  I was sore for about three days after I did it with her.  I have so much respect for her determination and ability to do way more press-ups than I could ever dream of doing.  And her abs are so amazingly steel-like.

Tik Tok continues to take over life as we know it.  The funniest thing in my opinion is when Brad and I know a song, the girls are so surprised.  There are some old songs making a comeback on Tik Tok.

The grocery items that are now really hard to find are flour and brown sugar!!!  I was hoping to make a carrot cake for Easter, but couldn't get brown sugar.  We almost had a complete disaster last Saturday, as we ran out of coffee!!!!  The horror, that would be absolutely terrible.  So I spent about 30 minutes going to three different shops before I was able to procure 2 bags of coffee in advance of my grocery delivery.  I discovered that the corner shop/news agents only sell the freeze dried coffee that doesn't really cut it.
