Now that we are back from our cruise, It’s time to catch up. Here’s a sampling of how we filled the rest of our time during our rainy spring break:
Building Forts – I wasn’t too happy about the packing tape stuck to the wall and shutters, but it was a rainy day and there was nothing to do outside, so I let it slide…just this once!
Putting Together Puzzles – I bought a 3D puzzle and ended up with a headache after helping Brit put it together. Don’t buy them.
Baking – still teaching the girls to bake so I don’t have to…
Making Salsa
Here is the recipe we use for Fresh Tomato Salsa from allrecipes.com that we all love:
Prep Time: 10 Minutes
INGREDIENTS:
3 tomatoes, chopped
1/2 cup finely diced onion
5 serrano chiles, finely chopped (we use 1 large Anaheim pepper so it’s not so hot)
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons lime juice
Combine all ingredients. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Enjoy!
We also had a field trip to Discovery Gateway. This is always a hit.
My mom always told me that kids are the easiest between ages 6-12. Well, here we are, just in that bracket. No naps, no diapers, no moody teenagers or toddlers to deal with. With Summer just 3 weeks away, I am going to take advantage of this “easy” stage and enjoy my kiddos. I can’t wait!
