March Break By The Numbers

As I've mentioned, our March Break didn't look like we had originally planned but, thankfully, it was still a lot of fun! We ended up doing a staycation and we just did what we could to make each day special. At the end of the week, Rachel said, "When we cancelled Hawaii, I was worried I was going to be bored at home but it was such a fun March Break and I wasn't bored!" I think we all felt that way.

While I had fun documenting our break on Instagram stories, I wanted to have a written recap on the blog as well. So here's a little March Break, by the numbers for you.

7 croissants eaten over the course of the week


countless flowers admired

only 1 meal cooked by me!


1 Grade 8 grad outfit acquired by Rachel


3 trips to Starbucks by some combination of us 

1 souvenir mug acquired by me


4 new duvet covers acquired by all of us in 1 trip to IKEA


1 set of ears pierced by Rachel


4 sets of friends visited with

a whole ton of snow melted off our yard

12 episodes of Gilmore Girls watched by Rachel and me (3 watched by Dave, half of one watched by Sam!)


7 major events/happening/activities

- Ctrl V, a virtual reality place


- Botanical Gardens, with an Alice in Wonderland themed tea time

- Come From Away musical

 

- Hockey Hall of Fame, with 2 cups seen (Four Nations Cup and Stanley Cup)

- one escape room adventure, (Dave and Sam did a different one)

It all added up to a pretty great March Break!

Thank you for being interested in my life as I blog it and for leaving a comment. Comments make me happier than reading a good book and drinking a cold Coke. Almost :)
