Spring Break





With Clint teaching in one school district and our kids attending school in another, our spring breaks did not match up. We still wanted to do something fun together so we opted for staying in a hotel downtown. That way Clint could still go to work in the morning but yet we could enjoy a little break together and a change of scenery.


We really had a wonderful time. We stayed at the Hilton, swam a lot, rode the TRAX, explored Temple Square, went to the top of the Church Office Building, visited the Church History Museum, Brigham Young's Home, and ate a lot!

April Fools

In my family, April Fool's Day has always been a day filled with tricks and mischievous actions. My mom and dad have always been up for a good prank and that has been passed down onto us kids. This year was no different. My parents and sister had quite the exciting April Fools Day. Head over to my sister's blog to read about their experience. Here And this post as well, here. She is quite the writer and can convey the story much better than I.

I wanted in on all the action so when my kids came home from school they had these cupcakes waiting for them. Everything is completely edible and in candy form. They sure had a good laugh! I hope everyone enjoyed their April Fool's Day as much as we did here!

She's a Star


Over the last month, Macy has been participating in rehearsals for an upcoming play at her school. It was titled, "Once Upon a Mattress," which is an adaptation of the story, "The Princess and the Pea." Last week she performed and we all went as a family to watch. Macy did a wonderful job and it was such a treat to watch her on stage. The kids got a real kick out of the show.


We love you Macy! You did a wonderful job and we are so proud of you.
