ready for a vacation

So we are in the middle of spring break and our kids think we need to do something fun and new and exciting everyday. So today we went to the science center, which was packed! We were there for 2 hours, came home had lunch then I put Sarah down for a nap, cleaned and took a little nap! Megan had a friend over until 5 then Brent was home shortly after and I made dinner, started some laundry and got the kids ready for bed. Now I am ready to put them to bed but they are not ready and since it is spring break I will let them stay up later.
My diet today has been my water bottle, breakfast was eggs with cheese and ham, my kids love this!, lunch- another salad!, and dinner was a taco salad, without the Doritos that Brent got to put on his. For snacks between I had almonds, string cheese and for deseret I had sugar free jello with sugar free whip cream on it! (Sarah really likes the whip cream) So I think I did pretty good. My steps today so far are 11,220 and the day is not over just yet.
Tomorrow we go on a short vacation to a hotel with a water park and some shopping then off to Brent's parents for Easter! The kids are soooo excited and I have to say that I am looking forward to it too. I hope the hotel has a treadmill so I can see how long it takes me to run a mile, at least once while we are gone. Does anyone know how many times around a gym you would have to run to equal a mile? Anyway, I am looking forward to sleeping in at least until 7:00 tomorrow! Don't know when I will write again, but I hope all our family and friends have a very Happy Easter and remember the real reason for the holiday!
