Spring Break

There were lots of fun things we did during Spring Break this year. Just not what I thought we might do. Didn't mow the lawn. Didn't plant a garden. Didn't clean the garage. Nope. Instead we endured the crappy weather and tried to make the most of our time off.

On Saturday, we had the neighborhood Easter egg hunt. We were in St. George last year for Easter so this was our first time at the egg hunt. Besides the cold weather, it was fun. I felt a little like we were in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory with all the parents running around saying "look for the golden egg."

Kiwi Bakery helped out with the doughnuts and my were they yummy! I love that place. If you haven't tried one of their doughnuts, you must. And then a cream puff. And a meat pie. And the fish n' chips. And, if you go in the morning, not only does it smell amazing, the doughnuts are still warm.

Of course, we had to color eggs. This is obviously a very serious thing around here.

As I was cleaning up the egg mess, the kids decided to play Truth or Dare. See what happens when you have an 18 year old in the house!? Josh drank some vegetable oil, Emma has never kissed a boy and Tasha had to learn how to do the "Josh dance."

On Easter Sunday, we went to Grandma B's for the Easter Egg Hunt. This one was a little warmer than the one the day before. This picture makes me laugh because some of the kids chose to wear Easter outfits while other kids were just happy to be there. I had a little some of each.

We were able to accomplish one thing on our "to do" list. We got the trampoline set up. Good thing - now it can snow on it.
