Easter Pictures: Spring Break Survival

OK so as I mentioned I am having a hard time with this entire Spring Break thing! So today my mother and I dressed all of the kids in their Easter outfits and threw them into the car and were off to Sears. Now I know what you are thinking… why did you head to Sears. We were off to Sears for Easter pictures. We have not had pictures in YEARS. The last time was when the baby was a month old. For those of you who do not know she will be 2 in a month! So needless to say it has been a while.
We have never been to Sears so I was a little bit aprehansive. It was great though. They had a kid friendly waiting area which I did not have to wait in because they were ready for us when we got there. The girls did great although it is difficult to make them all smile at once. Abigail kept trying to make the baby smile and Emma had the fakest smile. Even with all of these obsticales we were able to come out of the seccion with a few really nice shots.
So day two of Spring Break has been a success. We did the pictures, went to lunch, had a play date and now we are getting ready for bed. I am so happy that it is all working out. I would say that going and having pictures done is a great way to survive Spring Break! You should give it a try! I found that it really occupied a lot of time, the kids had fun and we were out of the house. We will not discuss how much Grandma spent though! We will keep that part to ourselves! Either way day two survived. Nine days to go!

Hi Becca, Seems like your Sring Break is much longer than ours this year. My 5 year old goes to Catholic school so we have 5 days together. Our 4 year old doesn’t go to school until next year so I have everyday with him. Hang in there. Before you know it summer will be here and you’ll have to figure this all out again. There really should be more activities available for the kids at this time. Everything is so expensive, especially when you have more than one. Yesterday we did the library thing, and the day before it was the park. Today it’s Easter, so off to the Easter Egg Hunt.
Thanks for stopping by my blog.

Sears is where I used to take Emily for pictures. They always did great with her. Now that we no longer live near Sears, we go to Wal*Monster. They do a pretty good job.

Mary I know I too am dreading the summer. At least over the summer our library has a great program set up. There are also options like swimming parties, hiking and the park. Here in NY the parks are not open yet, it is way too cool for swimming. Today we are having a Jammin’ Jamma day and playing Wii. I am not sure if we are going to make it ot not. So far everyone is still alive.

Mother Mayhem I have heard that Wal*Mart is good but I hate to give them my money. I hope that you had a great Easter!
