Spring Break 2019

Peter finished his reading group the week before spring break. He's grown so much and we're proud of his progress.

The kids are happy enjoying the warmer weather after school. Besides the rainy days the kids are loving being outside.
We started spring break with some cleaning. As a reward we had Kendal's best buddies Brook and Meadow came over for a play date and I took the older kids to Skateland. They had a blast together! Kendal and I dropped the girls off later and got a tour of the farm. Kendal even got to name a couple of quail.
 

Tuesday we headed down to Logan. The kids were loving being outside the rest of the week. Rollerblading, basketball, grandpa's fun car, swing, etc. They happily spent loads of time outside.
 
Wednesday morning I took Mom to the temple for her birthday. It was nice going back to my roots and the new session was good. My childhood pediatrician and kindergarten teacher happened to be over the session. It was neat. While we were at the temple Casey and my Dad took the kids four wheeling at the shop. (My Dad has nicknamed them Puddles, Throttle, and cuddles. ;) After the temple We all got together at the temple park afterwards with Anica and her boys. It's such a fun park; the kids had a great time. On our way home we stopped by the Aggie chocolate factory for a quick peak and taste. The dark chocolate was a bit rich for the kids taste, but Casey enjoyed himself!
 

 

 

  

  

Thursday I took Peter and Alice to story time with Anica and the boys. Afterward we went over to their house. A bit later I left Peter to play and took Alice for a much needed nap. So Alice napped while Kendal, my Mom, and I went out to Nana's house. We had a good visit and cleaned some around the house. That evening we made it back out to David and Anica's house. They made us dinner and the kids got to cut out pinewood derby cars. (Kendal has a Daddy  Daughter pinewood race in May.)

Friday we had a low key morning. That afternoon Katherine, Andy, and Campbell came. We took everyone to the jump park. Kendal and Campbell were everywhere. Peter took to the rope swing and foam pit for most of his fun.  Alice gave up after a couple of minutes because she got hurt. Elliot wandered and gathered balls, ending on the rope swing and Isaac happy scooted around. We had a pre birthday dinner for my Mom with cake and Mary Poppins to end the night.
 

  

 



Saturday we went to the fun park with the kids. We played arcade games with the kids. They got to go back to the shop and  get in another four wheeler ride in. We took dinner out to Nana to end our visit. Kendal and Peter were on a sugar rush on our way home and never fell asleep. Alice made it most of the way home, but fell asleep the last half hour or so. The kids begrudgingly went back to school today, and Casey is back to work fitting in all he can before school ends next month.

And a couple of pictures just for fun.
