Campin' Memorial Weekend

Last minute get out of town for Memorial Weekend turned out great! The kids had a blast playing in the dirt, hiking, sleeping in our tent, swinging in the hammock, trying to catch lizards, playing games, and spending time with daddy. They really needed and enjoyed this weekend. Skippin rocks, playing "PIT", and telling stories in the dark were some highlights. The first night was so windy, we ate our yummy bbq salmon dinner in the back of the truck and hoped our tent didn't blow away! Adventure always seems to follow our clan. Still, this place was perfect, one of our favs. Check out the sunsets!

Easter in St George



Posted by Picasa

The kids and I went to St. George to my sis' house for Easter. Thanks to her and her family, we had the best spring break we could imagine! We did everything from visiting, to riding horses, to hanging out with just the girls, to even decorating easter eggs like the pioneers did! Jason stayed with his mom and came and rode horses with us. Peanut came too! The kids also got to see all their cousins that they haven't seen forever. Josh's family shared their awesome family tradition of tying flowers around eggs and coloring them in water dyed from red root we dug up near the river. The eggs turned out so pretty, and the kids had a blast. Marissa really got into it, she said, "Mom, I am very crafty huh?" Oh, and the Easter Bunny did find us somehow at Ya Ya house!
