sharks and shelves.

Well, spring break is over. We had lots of fun, and the weather was nice until Sat. We went down to the aquarium. I thought it wouldn't be as crowdeed as our childrens museum, i was wrong. It was one of those moments where i often wonder about. You know the feeling where you think if you get there early there won't be a crowd. Well aren't there others who think the same thing? So really, why get there early? Anyway, we had lots of fun. It was really crowded though, so that made it a little bit annoying. We did have fun in the tunnel thing, the diver was in there and made faces at monkey and midget. He scared her though. It was kind of funny. He took a picture of us taking a picture of him. What a fun job. One reason the kids loved the aqaurium was for the sharks. The Djibouti the man got to swim with whale sharks. This while we are living the boring life of super targets and ballet class ;) We love you lots anyway, but they learned about the whale sharks. So that was neat. We all agree, we wouldn't have swam with them anyway.
After that we went to the beach. It was crowded also, and a little cold. But they had fun, until monkeys lips turned blue, and he finally madmitted to being cold. I figure it must have been really cold for that to happen. :)
After that, (can you tell this was a long day?) we were in the area of their grandparents. We hadn't seen them since August, so they loved seeing them again. They hung out for a bit at the pizza place and then we headed home. It was a super long day, so the kids slept really well
Sat and Sun we just stayed around here. Cleaning closets, and playing outside. Yesterday i cleaned out our garage, that was a feat in itself. I had gotten some shelves. I am pretty sure the neighbors enjoyed the show from his garage bar as they drank. Nothing like watching a woman trying to put together a shelving unit that swears no tools were needed, but simply "suggested". I think i learned new words, and i've never wanted to run over something so bad in my life. But i built the stupid shelves, and now they are holding some of the things i can't bear to part with, but don't really need or use. I suppose in the slean sweep, clean house world that means i should get rid of them....
