Spring Break

This past week was spring break and the kids had a lot of fun. We told the kids that if they did enough activity to get to Lagoon we'd have a fun day with them. For ever 30 min of activity they did they got 1 mile. We've been working on it most of the year, so it was a lot of work but also fun to see them work. 
We went to balanced rock again, mainly to get the last few miles we had to go. I'm fine climbing up, down is another story. 
 The kids didn't have fear though. 
 On Monday we went swimming at Miracle hot springs. It was cold outside but hot in the pool, which made it perfect. Next we saw Zootopia and had snacks. 

They then got to sleep out in Grandma and Grandpa Arrington's trailer. It was a lot of fun being with them all week. We had a "Hunger Games" marathon with the boys, baked with Emery, played games with them all, and of course, slept in. It's a lot more work to have spring break as an adult then it was as a kid.

Recorder Concer

The boys had their first recorder concert yesterday. They did a good job, but the thing you don't realize when you are the kid playing is how loud they are. Camden is acutally using the recorder I used, and they are even at the school I was also. 
 Beck is in the back almost just behind Cam. 
I think this is "Mary Had a Little Lamb."

Catch Up

It's been a busy few weeks here, so I haven't had a lot of time to blog. Here are a few highlights. 
We watched Brad's boss' dogs. There were 3 yorkies. I personally don't want a dog that small, they get out too easy and run too fast. The kids loved it though. 
 Emery got an award at school for being leader of the month. She got to have lunch with the principal and a metal. Emery was really excited to be this.
 We were at FHE at Grandma and Grandpa Barnes this month. Jackson is a lover, he loves to hug and kiss, but not everyone is as passionate. He really loves his cousin Greyson and wouldn't leave him alone all night. Grey was a good sport about all of Jacks affection.
