Happy Easter!



We've had a few birthdays and lots of fun times around here since we last checked in! We are officially on the odd year with our kids aged 9, 7, 5,3, and little Caleb almost 8 months. We have been busy, busy this last month selling girl scout cookies and are glad that is done. The girls worked really hard and sold 300 boxes each, so we will be going to SeaWorld Adventure Camp in June. We are very excited about that! We are into spring and nice weather, so the boys and I have been playing outside and at the park a lot and the girls even started outdoor swimming lessons at the university Saturday. This week was our Spring Break, so we took the time to go up and spend an afternoon and have a sleepover with Meg and Ryan before heading to the beach. We found a great hotel with a play deck( life size chess/checkers, ping pong, mini golf, etc) and a heated pool that was walking distance to the beach. After a couple of nights there, we headed home and got lots of projects done around the house.
Our Easter bunny went crazy this year. Each child woke up to a different color yarn tied to their bed. After checking in with mom and dad, they followed their yarn all around the house, inside and out, over and under furniture, etc until it lead to their basket. It was different and fun! Then we settled in for conference before having Mark's brothers and their families over for Easter dinner. All in all a great day and week- Mark goes back to work tomorrow, but the girls get one more day before they count down their final 8 weeks of school- we're ready for summer!!
