We enjoyed a lovely Spring Break week with the boys. On Monday my wonderful friend Dawn took the boys for the day so I could just sit home and relax, let my body heal from those 26 miles... I gotta say, going down stairs was a killer. On Tuesday I took the kids and a friend to Summerland, where we met with another family. It was a fun day as we had the park almost to ourselves.
K.C. with his best friend Mark. These two are inseparable, play dates almost every day! Their birthdays are 4 days apart and they still hug and kiss when they say goodbye. I love 5 year olds!
Vanya coming away from the super steep slide. The great thing about having the park to ourselves - no waiting in line.
Isabel enjoying a turn on the kiddie slide. As long as no water goes in her eyes, she loves pools.

Even though Disney is only about an hour drive away, we thought we'd use some hotel points and stay there to call it a "vacation". This hotel is partner with Disney so it was child friendly - something very hard to find in Tokyo. They had play areas and the rooms and floors all had children themes. The kids were in heaven.
Cameron joined us for dinner after work and we ate at the hotel. Another treat for the kids since we rarely take them out to eat, they are not fully "restaurant trained".
The next day we checked out early so we could enjoy a full day at Disney Sea. The park was crowded, but we knew it would be, so we just had fun walking around and enjoying the party atmosphere. We got to ride our favorite rides with fast passes and had a beautiful - though a little bit cold - day. We left after the fireworks.
On Friday I took the kids to Inokashira park. Cameron had taken the day off, but he had to leave very early in the morning to attend our stake's youth conference. This is a beautiful park with a pond. There are several playgrounds, a shrine and a little zoo.
We took a pedal boat ride along the pond. The boys were very helpful driving and pedaling.
It was a little tricky holding Isa on my lap, pedaling and taking pictures... however, we all managed to stay dry. The cherry blossoms were starting to bloom. Thus we survived a week of Spring Break.
