Spring Break

 We had a week off of school for Spring Break this year. We woke up to a winter wonderland Monday morning. Rockwell said we shouldn't call it Spring Break, we should call it Christmas Break Part 2. The schools in the state that weren't on break closed for the day because of all the snow. In April! This winter has been record-breaking and it seriously feels like it will never end. We tried to come up with things to do inside. Hallee had been over on Saturday and the girls made these cute little people.

Damon had Market Day after Spring Break and needed to make items to sell. Tessa and I spent the morning helping him make people for the market.

Tessa helped me make dinner, but she did not like the smell of the ham. She got a mask to wear so she didn't have to smell it. :)

Tessa and Damon made a fort in the basement and slept in it that night.

On Tuesday we had planned to go to Katie's with Al and Audrey, but it was still snowing and the roads were bad in Salt Lake county. Al said she felt safe driving to our house, so her and the kids came over for the day. Damon got in the hot tub in the morning, and then the older 4 got in that afternoon.

Talia & Jeff and Paul and I took our Young Women to the Provo temple to do baptisms on Wednesday. I was glad about half of them were able to come on Spring Break.

The roads were clear on Thursday so I went up to Katie's. Her and Audrey's kids were in school, but Tessa still really wanted to come and play with Annie after she got out of kindergarten. Katie decided to check Kenzie out when she heard Tessa was coming and the three girls had a fun day together. She was also so excited to see Gemma!

On Friday Tessa and Rockwell spent the morning at Al's house. There was finally some nice weather and they had a great time playing outside.

Paul took Damon with him to run some errands. Damon loved that!

I took the kids to the Springville Rec Center to swim that afternoon. It was included on our Get Out Passes, so we thought we'd give it a try. 

The pool itself wasn't too exciting, but the kids all loved the slides. 

I couldn't believe how fast they came shooting out of the orange slide. They would skim the top of the water for a few feet before finally sinking into it. It looked really fun!

Jacob came with us and he and Damon had a great time.

Gotta love Rockwell's teenage stank face in this picture. Haha!

That night we went to Don Joaquin for Katie's birthday dinner and played games with Katie & Ben and Al & Keith. The kids had so much fun playing with their friends all night. And Paul and I had so much fun playing with our friends all night too. :)

On Saturday we went to my parents' for an Easter egg hunt and hanging out. 

The kids loved having another egg hunt and playing with their cousins at Grandma's house. We spent the afternoon visiting and playing games.
