Easter 2009

Easter 2009: The Easter Bunny had to come to our house during church on Sunday, so the kids were extra good during sacrament meeting! The whole 9am church time really makes it tough on the Easter Bunny! They found their baskets, hunted eggs & we went to Grandma's for dinner & more egg hunting (I forgot my camera!). It was a beautiful Easter day.

Spring Break in SLC

Maddie was out for Spring Break so we took the kids down to SLC for a quick trip. We got a hotel, went swimming, had dinner at the Mayan (atmosphere is much better than the food!). We also went to Jungle Jim's, it's an indoor amusement park for kids. They loved it, it had bumper cars, a carousel, all kinds of little rides. They enjoyed it. We also took them to Build-A-Bear, they had a ball picking out their animals. It was expensive, but oh so much fun watching them create & pick just the right outfit. It was a busy weekend for sure, but we were able to enjoy our kids & hopefully build some fun memories!

Baby Animal Days!

My sister, Val & I took the kids to Baby Animal Days. It is very crowded, expensive & usually chilly... but the kids love it. They get to hold & pet all kinds of farm animals (we should just go to IFA) Eli & Maddie loved it, Ella & Allie weren't too thrilled. They liked to look, but didn't want to touch the animals or have them near them, probably safer for the animals too!

Eli turns 4!

Eli turned 4 this weekend (April 12) ... although it was a busy weekend with Spring Break, Easter & Baby Animal Days we had the family over for a birthday bash. He got lots of fun stuff that will keep him busy, busy, busy! That's what we like, because he is always on the go!
