Spring Break = Toledo, Ohio




For Spring Break this year we headed for an overnight stay in Toledo, Ohio. Last year it was Iowa, this year Ohio! The kids loved it as did the parents! We went to the Toledo Art Museum...the kids weren't quite sure what to think, but did well and found the glass blowing demonstration fascinating!


Ian was listening to a prayer read in two different languages.



This is a room inside of the museum...it felt like we were outside!




We stayed at a Holiday Inn Express....with a pool! I think the kids swam for hours...the loved it, and so did we...made them nice and tired!


We then went to the Toledo Zoo. We are members at the John Ball Zoo here in Grand Rapids and since the Toledo zoo is a reciprocal zoo we got in free! It was a great zoo...the animals were really active and they had lots of them!



At one point we thought we lost Gavin and Lucas...but they were just the ones making the tree frog noises coming out from this tree!


The seals were fun to watch..they like to swim on their backs.


Things to climb on are always fun...here are all the kids sitting on the lions!

I think that I would love to freeze them all at the ages they are right now...they are so much fun and I enjoy being their mom more every day!!
