SPRING BREAK in the Middle of March

One thing about being a teacher...I still look forward to Spring Break!  We had a staycation and just did a few things around Memphis with family and friends. We visited My Big Backyard at Botanical Gardens with Kiki, Aunt Tessa, and cousin Payton:
 
We had our last SoccerTots class!  Thanks so much Mrs. Kim!
 
We had a great time at our friend John Stephen's 1st birthday party!!
Top left is our best friend at Nannie Chelle's: Mary Claire, and top right is our friend Rachel.  The bottom pictures are of the birthday boy and his mom and dad: Jennifer and John.

We also went on our annual Spring Break trip to the zoo!  We LOVE the zoo!
 The Williamses (Brian, Kristy, Anna Paige, Tyler, and Wesley) and the Risters (Griffin, Shannon, and Reed) came along with us! The Williams are below to the left and the Risters are to the right, minus David and Nathan.  We attempted a few shots of all the kids together, but I don't think we have a single one where they are ALL looking at the cameras. :)
 Aylin Jewel loves the Rister boys: Reed is a couple of weeks older than she and Griffin is 3 1/2.  I love the pics below because they show how much she loves them; I mean, AJ does not normally share her food and she doesn't try to give kisses to just anyone! :)  The funny thing is she loves their whole family! She loves Shannon and David, and even Shannon's mom and dad...I think she likes sitting with them more than anyone else at worship services!
 Some of my favorite shots of baby girl:
 A few more pics of all the monkeys, I mean kiddos:
 And wrapping up our day of fun a pic of daddy showing Aylin the elephants and the other three are of Jewel Bug enjoying her very 1st coke iccee!
We had a wonderful 2011 Spring Break!
