Discovery Science Center.

Because we made a goal to do lots of family-friendly activities with the kids during spring break, and today's trip to DSC was definitely a winner.

4.11.12--number 102

Introducing the kids to the silliest board game ever.

Because, unless your name is Alfred E. Neuman, this game is awesome. I haven't laughed that much in a while, and the kids had a ball, too.

4.10.12--number 101

Mini golfing with the kids.

Because if you thought mini golf was at all challenging, you should try it with a 2-year-old who just wants to pick up all the balls and drop them into the holes.

4.9.12--number 100

Little chefs.

Because my kids are starting to have a genuine interest in cooking, especially with their daddy. Oh, alright, Isla is really only interested in culinary masterpieces made of wood and plastic, but still... She's great at plating.

4.8.12--number 99

Easter candy.

Because it's ridiculously addicting, especially those crunchy chocolate Cadbury eggs. Oh, sure, I know that's not really the point of Easter, savior rising from the dead, yada yada yada... But those eggs kick ass.

4.7.12--number 98

Lemonade stands on sunny mornings.

Because when your kid and his friends take it upon themselves to make a lemonade stand and wind up making $9 (at 50 cents a cup, it's not a bad haul), you can't help but be proud of their ingenuity, even If they did snatch all their supplies from your kitchen and lemon tree, which means technically I should take a cut of that profit. Right?

4.6.12--number 97

Random silliness.

Because when you discover your 2-year-old wearing a luchador wrestling mask and wielding a vampire bunny puppet, you know it's gonna be a good day.
