After our brief trip to the flea market we went to Lake Ella to walk around the park and feed the ducks. As usual we used cereal that was given to us that we never ate to feed the them. They must have been full that day because they just weren't eating anything. Perhaps all of the ducks got full from the people that had come out before us feeding them nice pieces of bread. Who knows? After we made it all the way around the "track" at Lake Ella we got to the point where they have the big tree that kids always love to climb, and our kids are no different.

The next stop after Lake Ella was the Gambles Residence. Our youngest did not have a nap yet and nobody ate lunch. Once we got home the first thing we did was eat lunch. After that the boys wanted to watch their new movie and make a craft. They discovered some paper bags in the pantry and got the brilliant idea to make robot costumes with the boxes. This is not the first time they have done so. This is the second year for that craft and each year they are different. This year there were no helmets and the decoration was simple. The pictures didn't come out quite right, but it was really cute. Our kids have a very creative mind and for that I am thankful.
The first day was wrapped up with dinner and a movie before we all knocked off to sleep. The first day of spring break was simple, but it was still one of the best days ever because I got to spend time with my family and I enjoyed every minute of it. Stay tuned for updates on the rest of the week as Spring Break Chronicles 2013 continues!
