Spring Break

If you live in Utah, you know what a strange spring break we had last week, weather wise. Mother Nature decided to show us a little bit of each season, and I guess that's fine with me because we hadn't made any major plans to go anywhere. We decided that we would do something fun each day since we weren't going on vacation. We had a Chuck E Cheese day, a movies day, a Thanksgiving Point day, etc. Some of the plans fell through because I worked a lot last week and had a hard time doing everything on our list, but I think the kids had a good break. Here's a little of what we did:

Of course, the week started off with Easter Sunday. The kids had slept over at grandma and grandpa's the night before and had a lot of fun over there, and even got great Easter baskets from them. When they got home, they found that the Easter Bunny had left them some giant chocolate bunnies.

Then, this happened. And I said to myself "Only in Utah would you have to worry about throwing down some ice melt during spring break".

But later in the week, the sun came out again, and we got to spend a day at the park. I love this view. You can see the houses down the hill, Utah Lake, and the beautiful mountains and blue sky behind it all.

Nick and Bella even got to ride their scooters to the park. They loved it, and of course Nick the Dare Devil had to go up and down the hill as many times as he could until we caught up with him.

I can't believe how tall Bella is getting. I was following them and just thought "When did my kids grow up?" It amazes me every day.

Cute girl. Always posing.

Here's Nick, being Nick.

They are so quick to make up stories and adventures. I just sat back and watched them act it all out.

And in hopes of spring, I decided to get a couple highlights. I was surprised when I looked in the mirror to see a ton of very light blond streaks throughout my hair. This was the first stylist who was bold enough to not just do some baby-fine light brown highlights, and I decided to follow in her boldness and just roll with it.

Happy Spring!
