Our busy week.

So here is the picnic we had last weekend at the park.

Then Monday morning (after working overnight Sunday night) I took the kids on Bennett's preschool field trip to an outdoor education centre. The kids learned about the making of maple syrup. Bennett's favourite part was the puppet show.

We also got to see some farm animals while we were there, and would have gone on a wagon ride if the tractor had started. However, it was ridiculously cold for spring, so we were out of luck. This is the chicken that Charlotte was hysterically afraid of. She liked all the other animals though.

The rest of Monday was spent in a daze where I slept on and off while the kids vegged in front of the TV. Tuesday we went to the Science Centre - I didn't take my camera, so you'll have to take my word for it. Got a little lost on the way there, and ended up with a speeding ticket - grrrrr!

Wednesday I was at work, so Mike entertained the kids with Easter egg making and play-at-home time (their favourite). Today we had our first trip to the zoo for the season.
It's a gorgeous, warm day. Ben and Charlotte ran and rode and climbed and ate and both fell asleep on the car ride home.
