Last week was Spring Break, so we partied all the time, partied all the time, parrrr-tied all the time! Actually, we took a "staycation" to save money since I'm still job hunting. It was really fun! :)
Saying "Uh-Oh" after spilling them all on the ground. Bird's also consider Cheerios to be their best friends.
Monday: The Zoo
Everyone and their grandmother was there since it was the first day of break, but it was the best weather day, so we went for it. The temperature was perfect! The elephants were on vacation (who knew?), so we didn't get to see them. I guess they deserve it since they work holidays. When we were walking around, Kai asked how the zoo "replicates the animal's habitat." What are they teaching these kids in kindergarten???
Here are some shots of Cassi watching Kai and Dan on the carousel.

Kai and Dan, living the dream!
Kai said he "was smiling."
"Mom, I don't want to take a pictures in front of the flamingos!!!"
Kai always scrunches up his shoulders and stomps around when he is mad--lol!
At least no one is mad in this one. Well, the tiger doesn't look so happy.
Tuesday: Pizza and the Park
We went to the pizza lunch buffet at Mazzio's. It's pretty cheap and quick! Kai looked like he'd rolled around in the pizza by the time we were done, so we had to run home to change his clothes.
She looks soooo tiny!!!
Kai is getting soooo big!
Wednesday: We rested and so did the paparazzi
Thursday: The Library and Donuts (Just because it's a "staycation" doesn't mean it has to be healthy and good for the waistline! Why are donuts so cheap and healthy food is so much more expensive? We got a half dozen donuts for about $3.49!)
Kai and Cassi playing with the keyboards and mice.
"Just let me spell check this e-mail and then I will be with you."
Friday: Kai and I went to McYucky's for lunch while Dan and Cassi chilled at home. We used up some free game cards he had at Andy Alligators indoor game center --- forgot camera at home. :( He got enough tickets for a plastic centipede.
Zoo: $20
Pizza: $9
Park: Free
Library: Free
Donuts: $3.49
McYucky's: $6.00
Game Center: Free
Total Cost of Staycation: Priceless
All in all it was good, cheap fun this week. Kids don't really care if they go some place fancy, just as long as you are there with them! :)

Looks like you had a busy, but fun week! What a great idea brining the vacation home :)
You guys looked like you had a blast. We are thinking of taking Dagny to the zoo this Saturday (if the weather is good).
It is amazing how much they look alike. We have to get together at some point. :-)
we were also trying to keep it cheap this year, we also went to the zoo and then just generally hung around all week ;) when you've adopted from Russia, or are planning to... you gotta save!!!
Sounds good to me!!!
I had to stinkin' move.
:p
