We had an AWESOME spring break last week. We did so many fun things. My only regret is that i didn't get enough pictures! So Sorry if this is boring to anyone. This is more of a journal entry than anything. : )
SATURDAY:
The girls ran a race with the Nash Dash. Savannah got a time of 36 minutes on the 5k, Isabelle got about 23 minutes for the 1.5 mile race! They are both Awesome runners and have so much fun. Then the county hosted an Easter egg hunt, and both girls had a great time. Savannah was super excited to get the "Golden Egg" Which she traded in for a giant chocolate bunny. We made it home just in time to watch Conference. (Sometimes I like that it doesn't start until noon on the East coast!)
SUNDAY:
was Easter Sunday AND Conference. It doesn't get much better than that. The kids had WAY too much candy(--Just the way it should be) and conference was uplifting and wonderful.(--Just the way it should be.)
MONDAY:
Matt spent the day (and the next, and the next) working on his car which is almost finished. The girls played in the sprinkler and on the slip and slide. We all started working on our summer tans and really enjoyed the 80 degree weather. (sorry about the snow- Utah people! : )
TUESDAY:
We had a play date with our friends the Millers. The kids played in the water some more and took turns on the Wii. The whole family came over for dinner.

Matt, Isabelle, and Adam Play Guitar Hero together.
(Adam gets really into the music. He loves to rock!)
WEDNESDAY:
Was cooler and we were all sunburned so we stayed inside and read "Harry Potter" and "Trixie Beldon"
Isabelle Chillin' with her brother.
THURSDAY: We took the Kayaks out on the reservoir. This was the first time we took Adam out on the boat. He was way too busy to sit still for that long and absolutely HATED the life Jacket. But he was SSSOOOOOO Cute. (This was the main time i missed my camera. imagine my little blond boy completely unable to move because of his life jacket which smashed his cheeks up and made his arms stick out, with a little green sun hat perched on his head.) We had fun. We tied the boats together and Matt dropped his anchor and we all took turns swimming and cooling off in the water. We LOVE our kayaks.
FRIDAY: I seriously can't remember what we did. i guess it wasn't that memorable. I'm sure i took a nap. : )
SATURDAY:
We went to the zoo with our friends the Millers. This time i did actually take my camera, so here are some pictures and narration.
Kendra miller, Savannah, Isabelle, and Kaelynn miller. looking at the fish. (we weren't even in the zoo yet!)

Isabelle

Savannah (Birds in the background)

These were the most beautiful frogs I've ever seen. The colors were so vibrant. The picture definitely doesn't do them justice. They looked like those polished colorful rocks you get at a gift shop. Maybe it is just the Hopper in me, but i LOVE frogs.

Isabelle posing on a giant bumblebee. The bee exhibit was really fun and included a live hive in a glass case, so you could see them actually working. Super neat.

We decided to do the backpack instead of the stroller for Adam. We didn't get any complaints from him!

Sleeping.

Savannah Playing in the "Kidzone"

The zoo is full of these bronze statues of the animals. The kids wanted to pose on everyone. By the end of the day the dads refused to allow anyone near them!
