Odd spring break
We're accustomed to having our kids' April vacation happen the same time as Easter weekend, but this year, Easter came a week before the vacation did.
Last year we used it as an excuse to drive down to Florida -- we left the evening before Good Friday and arrived at my in-laws' condo on Easter morning. This year, no such luck. I'm not up for another 3,500 mile round trip excursion, can't really afford the gas and motels or plane fare, and my sister-in-law and her family have booked the week. With the kids' vacation not happening until next week, it's all the more reason not to do the trip.
So this year we'll be staying put for April vacation.
