Insanity has been ruling the show over here lately. After the jam-packed craziness that was March (tons of work, birthdays, an end of winter mini-getaway), spring break really finished me off in the Completely Thrown for a Loop department. I am now one hundred percent certain that spring break for the younger set exists solely to light a fire under the asses of procrastinating parents (like yours truly) and make sure they get summer plans lined up—stat.

Because sweet Jesus that was a long week.

I actually got really upset and whined to my husband that I don’t want to be one of those people who count down the days until school starts again. He assured me that at one point or another everyone is one of those people. This may be one of the few things he’s right about. 😉

Luckily, the week wasn’t all whining and the girls working their hardest to drive each other (and me) insane. There were play dates and movie dates and manicure dates. There were also a couple of special little outings that I’m excited to share with you guys for your own plan making.

First up were tickets to Disney Live!: Three Classic Fairy Tales.

We’ve been trying our hardest to soak up every last bit of summer over here—and I have a phone full of pictures to prove it…

Last week the hubs and I took the ladies on our yearly mini vacation to Mystic, Connecticut. Since we’re not exactly rolling in money (OK, it’s more like we’re rolling in a lack of money), a three-day getaway that we can get to in under three hours is kind of perfect.

Our first stop? Mystic Aquarium.

It’s been awhile since I’ve been able to give this little space o’ mine the proper attention, so I thought I’d come back with a little of what we’ve been up to lately.
