Spring Break '09

For spring break this year we decided to hang out at home and see what we could come up with for entertainment. Here is the run-down of our week.
Sat: Jaycie was baptized and it was a fantastic day. We also went over to Natilie and Reeds and decorated Easter eggs.

Sun: Easter. The kids got church clothes from the Easter bunny, then it was off to Granpa Kerry's for breakfast and a hunt. We went to Grandma' Joans for dinner and another hunt. Thanks Mom and Dad for making a fun day for the kids.

Mon: We awoke to a beautiful day. We called Nat and Reed and we decided to go with them to Salt Lake. We went to the Gateway Mall for shopping and fun. We hung out there for a couple of hours and then we went to the Joseph Smith movie at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. If you haven't been you need to go. It was an amazing show and I shed a few tears. After this we went to a Bee's game. It was really fun. Thanks Nat and Reed for inviting us, and sharing the day.

Talk about a blast from the past. Mine were hot pink. Colton thinks these are pimp.

Tues: We woke up to rain. It sucked. We hung out at home for awhile and Jaycie decided she wanted to go swimming. We headed over to the A.F. Rec center, because they have a diving board, and Lehi does not. We spent a couple of hours there and had lots of fun.

Wed: Rain. Again. We called Natilie and Reed and went swimming. Again. Only this time when we left the pool there was about 2 inches of snow on the ground. What the ?
After changing clothes Natilie and Reed came over and we had some dinner and played a little Guitar Hero 3. Natilie played a mean Bass. Reed tried drumming, and guitar playing, he was more successful as a vocalist. After several tries Jeff mastered the drums and I played guitar. We rocked the house. It was soo stinkin fun.

Thurs: Woke up to broken branches on our willow tree and several inches of wet, heavy snow. We hung out at the house and went...you guessed it swimming. Again. I want it known that I did not swim at all. I sat on the deck and read a book. More fun for me.

Fri: We woke up to somewhat nice weather. The sun was shining, but it was a little cool. We hung out for a while and the Jeff's sister called and invited us down for dinner. We hung out with Jeff's fam and enjoyed each others company. While there we decided to end our Spring Break fun, by going riding the next day.

Sat: We loaded up 4-wheelers, and motorcycles and headed west. We spent several hours riding, eating, and having fun. We came home sun-burnt and dirty.

We had a lot of fun, with our extended family and each other. We were sad to see the week end.
