  1. This spring, we are just looking forward to getting out and getting some fresh air. My son has epilepsy that right now can not be controlled with medication. He is tired a great deal of the time. We are looking forward to just being able to sit on the front porch and watch the birds and just breath in some fresh air.

    Thanks for a chance to win and have a wonderful day.

  7. We are looking forward to my stepdaughter coming to visit. We don’t get to see her very often, so my 2 biological kids are looking forward to spending the week with their sister and getting to know her more and more! Some sunny weather would definitely be welcome!

  9. We are going to get outside and attack the yard around our house and church. It has long been neglected and with moving here in the winter we have been only able to stare at the unsightly landscape. Spring break will give us a chance to make it great!

  29. It hardly ever fails to snow here during spring break and since we’re not lucky enough to be going away on vacation, we’ll probably have our noses pressed against the windows watching the snow fall.

    Posted by Aimee | March 3, 2009, 4:06 pm
  30. We have no plans to go away, but hopefully the weather will cooperate and we will be able to enjoy playing outside with our 3 girls. However, living in West Michigan, you never know when Winter will be over. Let’s hope it is soon!

  39. We have no formal plans, but I have baby coming at the end of May so by Spring Break, it will be a spring cleaning, get-the-house-ready frenzy. I hope my nesting instinct kicks in by then. I am now craving some V-Fusion juice!:-)

    Posted by Jessica Sheets | March 5, 2009, 2:48 pm
  40. My husband just started a new job and doesn’t want to take time off for a trip, so we’re spending Friday night of that week at a local hotel and going out to dinner. Not too exotic, but it will still be fun!

  45. It’s really weird. When I was in school, Spring Break was a week long. My daughter however, gets 3 days. Weird. But, since her birthday is the day before break starts, we will be celebrating her birthday. She has chosen to have a shopping spree. So we are going shopping. (But don’t worry, it’s money we have set aside for this. I’m not going into debt.)

    Posted by Melinda | March 6, 2009, 7:55 am
  46. Hubby doesn’t get time off, so the kids and I are thinking about taking a road trip to visit some friends we don’t get to see too often.

    I will take the kids with me and teach them to enjoy the season.
    It has been a really long and cold winter and I NEED the warmer temps to get over that.
    Now if the rain can not be so much and I can get outside,I will be out as much as possible, since we have longer daylight slowly happening.
    Please enter me!

  116. I am going to have a yard sale. this will serve many purposes. First, I will make some much needed money. Second, I will clear out the stuff my kids have outgrown or we just don’t need. To have a clean, empty garage is a gift itself. But, to have extra money, now…..

  120. We will be visiting relatives in Kansas City (we live in Ohio). We haven’t been to KC in several years, so it will be nice to see all of our family there.

  121. we are looking forward to hosting an Italian exchange student from Arrezo, Italy. My daughter and her Italian class recently returned from 2 weeks there, and in April it will be our turn to reciprocate. My daughter had a wonderful time there and we can’t wait to meet the lovely girl who hosted her!

  125. We’ve been homeschooling non-stop since August and this spring break….we’re taking a much needed vacation. Since we’ve never been on a road trip…this will be the perfect time. We’re planning on going up north to Idaho to visit family and then to the Peacock Ranch in northern nevada…to mine for opals!

  138. We are planning a small trip over spring break to Chicago. Free Lincoln Park Zoo,vendor hot dogs, and lots of free people watching and window shopping. We certainly can’t afford a big florida vacation, but we are ready to get out of dodge for a few days!

  141. I’m hoping to take my 4 year old and 2 year old along with my cousin, his wife, and their 6 month old and go camping in the N. GA mountains this spring. My boys are so excited about sleeping in a tent and fishing in the creek and Mommy is just excited about the fresh air and sunshine! Thanks!

  145. We are hoping to go to the beach possibly and if not the beach just soaking up the sun here at the house and maybe a trip to the zoo.

    Posted by Amanda | March 10, 2009, 12:57 pm
  146. We just got back from our spring break! We went to Texas to visit family. While we were there we went to the beach in Corpus Christi and visited Dinosaur Valley State Park. We have great pics of the kids standing alongside several different fossilized dinosaur footprints! On the way home we stopped at the Vicksburg civil war battlefield. The kids were very impressed by our short visit and want to return.

  147. We don’t have big spring break plans (my son’s still too young to get a spring break), but we’re planning to celebrate our fifth wedding anniversary this May with a friend’s wedding and a road trip across New England.

    Posted by Kati | March 10, 2009, 2:06 pm
  148. We are planning a trip to Whidbey Island for spring break! Our family owns a second home on the island, and it’s a quick ferry ride away from our home. It’s a vacation at staycation prices! :)

  153. While my kids do not attend school nor do they have spring break (they are almost 3 and just over 1 year) my parents are driving 500 miles to see us tomorrow, tomorrow night we are supposed to get much needed rain, followed by a cold snap taking us from mid 80 degree days to mid 50s degree days, and my husband is taking Friday off work. We won’t let anything spoil any plans that we have not yet confirmed due to weather and travel. But we’re sure to have fun whether its the zoo or the mall.

    Posted by Jill H | March 10, 2009, 6:12 pm
  154. I have 0 plans for spring break. We will stay home and be so happy not to have to go to school, preschool, or even out of the house. Maybe spend a day in our jammies.

    Mmmm I didn’t know how good I had it when the kids weren’t in school.

    Posted by megan | March 10, 2009, 6:32 pm
  155. This year we are going to attempt our first garden. The kids are very excited and so am I. We are also getting a big trampoline as a gift and the kids can’t wait to get on that!
