We were officially on Easter break this week and had company visiting from San Diego. We had a total of ten cousins (including my kids), ages 2-20 that spent all or part of their break here with us. The weather cooperated so nicely that the kids were able to spent a lot of time outside playing.
We visited the flea market, some thrift stores and the library's used bookstore. We took a drive back to the olive oil plant and stocked up on some goodies. We spent some time just sitting around and reading. We ate an awful lot. I came down with a sore throat and a cold. And it was all good!
We read a new (to us) Dr. Seuss book, Happy Birthday to You. That produced some giggles.
Blakester spent several hours creating an elaborate spaceship out of Legos.
Lulu spent an afternoon making a ton of strawberry freezer jam with Grandma and others.
I spent some time at the Ultimate Blog Party 2010 partying with other bloggers. That was a lot of fun!
I prepared our next couple weeks of schoolwork. We'll be back to the grindstone on Monday.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

I love the idea of an Easter break with lots of cousins!
