This week was Spring Break! My husband had most of the week off so we were able to take a short trip and have some fun with our kids.
Here are a few pictures I took this week.
I said we built memories with the kids. We didn’t necessarily get good pictures of them. 🙂
I tried to get the kids to all look at the camera at the same time but Elisabeth looked away in this picture. Some of the others were looking away in the one picture she actually looked at the camera in.
Everyone had a really good time. We didn’t lose any of the kids. The only panic moment was when Jonathan panicked at the water’s edge of the slide that you see in this picture of Elijah.
Jonathan was scared to go under the water in the slide. But once we coaxed him through it he went down once with Ruth. Then he was willing to go down it again and again all by himself.
Scott took Elisabeth down the slide. She seemed to like it pretty well.
My Motto: If you have trouble taking good pictures just take a lot of them!
Finally one last picture for now.
I have a whole lot more but I’ll save the rest for future posts.
Even the picture on top of the snake was a bit of a flop. Jonathan’s hand is in front of his face. 🙂
I’ll spare you the picture of my wounded elbow. I cut myself on the passenger side mirror. It’s a pretty good little gash but it’s starting to heal now.
I was so glad it was me and not one of the kids that got hurt during the day. I hate hurting myself but I hate it worse when my kids are hurt.
Have you ever had a vacation or trip where you had a good time but none of the pictures were good? Or am I the only one that ever happens to? As always feel free to share with me in the comments.
This is a rather short and hurried post catching you up with what we’ve been doing this week.
I have a book I am working on that I’ll be sharing with my followers. I also have a guest post to write and will be sharing that with you as well.
I am stepping out and trying new things. Thanks for following and listening!

How fun. Thank you for sharing a family adventure. Back in days of film, I took pictures all day, and then realized there was no film in the camera.
I bet that was sad. I probably would have had to laugh about it though. Back in the real film days, I had a camera that didn’t roll the film all the way and I kept reusing the film. I had several pictures with two separate events on them.
I just love the whole story AND the pictures! Thank you! 🙂
Thanks, Lotta! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Lovely story. lovely pics!
Thanks, Laura!
