Julien's spring break was this past week and the weather was just perfect for it. Tuesday we took a picnic to the botantic gardens and wednesday we went to the zoo. Spending time with him just as parents without the other two boys is so sweet and different. He had a great time.Thursday night was April Fools and I tricked all three boys with jello in their drink cups and mashed potato meatloaf cupcakes for dinner! Alex and Lennox took the joke a lot easier than Julien, who was just confused by the whole thing and ended up with a sandwich.
The boys all had Good Friday off and spent the whole weekend with us. We dyed eggs, washed cars, sprayed each other with water on the first hot day of the year, and generally wore each other out. Saturday evening we ate outside for our Easter dinner. Ted and I took them to the international market to pick up supplies for the meal. We roasted a pork shoulder Cuban style, had black beans and rice, tostones, and avocado salad. Everyone toasted a great day, a great holiday
, and a great meal.
