Spring Break!

Yesterday we took a break from the craziness of life, our schoolwork, and went on a spring break!! In the early morning we spent our time hiking through the Sweet Leaf Trail, stopping to climb the river beds and hollers, walk over swinging bridges, and create new memories as a crazy-loving family.
   Soon after our hike was over, we drove over to the Antique Mall in town, perusing the sweet treasures, and purchasing a few of our own. We laughed at silly little oddities FarmMama remembered from when she was small and from her childhood, and looking lovingly at Depression Glass, Blue Willow dishes, and delicate Jewel Tea that brought memories of our grandparents and their favorite collections to mind. With Farmboy examining the fishing, hunting, and fire-arm departments, Simply N'rae checking out exquisite art and Chinese brush sets, FarmMama and I enjoyed the wooden bowls, delicate dishes, and silly memories that each collection brought.
   A swift trip to Horse and Rider to drool over the stunning saddles, halters, bridles, reins, grooming accessories, and so many boots fed our country side of life. I can't wait to go back and purchase some gorgeous Justin Gypsy boots I fell in love with!!
   A library trip for studying and whatnot came next, after Angus burgers from McDonald's, of course, was a nice quiet time after a busy morning.
   Muay Thai left us tired but content with a hearty work-out, as we prepare for a Sparring Event a week from Saturday. Hopefully, we'll all be ready and will do our best, being Organized like a team, and Fighting like a family.
   All in all, that concludes our day away from home, leaving us munching home-made pizza and coka-cola, watching a movie we borrowed from the library.
  A wonderful day, leaving us with many fond memories, and a desire to create some more.
  What all did you do with your spring break?

P.S. I will post more of the pictures later I haven't had time to upload them yet.
