Spring Break 2007

Brave kids on the overhanging rock cliff.
The famous dixie narrows slot canyon. Most of us made it through. The kids go through with ease but if you have any sort of a belly or chest it is a little tight.

Our kids love this gypsum mine with all of the white crystal rocks. You feel like you are walking into a pit of mirrors with all the reflection from the sun. Parker found the largest pieces.

This year over spring break we went down south to sunny St. George. About half of our neighborhood migrates there for the week. We stayed at the Holiday Inn, yea!! kids eat free. We had three days of non stop fun. I actually slept at night in a hotel bed without help! (drugs)because I was so exhausted. We went from long bike ride to hike to swim to walk, everyday for three days. We called our friend Carl the "Cruise director" because he had a schedule for everything and if you were't ready by 9:30 am to leave for the activity you were left to catch up. I personally would have loved a little more pool and lay out time.

Easter Sunday






Easter Sunday we had a fun family day. Our stake had conference so it wasn't your typical Easter Sunday. Mom had us over for a nice dinner that was delicious!! We of course had to have an egg hunt. The kids as usual got too much candy. But they love it. What would holidays be without candy?? Luke was having the time of his life.

ST. PAT'S DAY

We had a visit from a lepracaun in our neighborhood he gave us gold covered chocolate coins. He did alot of mischief in our homes. He left our toilets filled with green water.

We had a yummy breakfast of green eggs and ham, green fruit, jello, pancakes, muffins, and green milk. It was a very fun morning. Thanks neighbors.
Eliza Hansen, Bryn and Parker won't get pinched this year.

NEW CAMERA

Beautiful Brynlee
Lovely Lauren
I just bought myself a new camera. My Aunt Kaye and I were learning how to use them. We took alot of pictures of my girls (Parker did't want his taken). Olivia had had enough. This is a classic picture of her.

WEEKEND IN PARK CITY

March 10th
My girlfriend Annette Montierth's parents own 2 beautiful homes one in St George and the other in Park City. She is very generous and invites us to spend the weekend when her parents are out of town. The Park City home is in Glenwild on the golf course. There was a little snow left around their home so the kids were able the sled and snowboard.
Olivia and her friends Monet and Anna love to always wear their bathing suits. They were quite the nuts with their suits under their snow clothes.

SNOWSHOEING

We just bought new snowshoes and tried it for the first time. It was so much fun and the scenery was beautiful. We went with our friends the Okiishis and the Budges.

Carl is always trying to push the adventure. I don't think the rest of us would have thought to cross Little Cottonwood creek. We all followed, the spikes on the shoes helped us not to slip. The harder part was making it back up the embankment.

Spring Mountain Fun

March 11, 2007
The weather this past week has been so nice. We took full advantage and went on a hike to Mountain Dell Resevoir. The kids love the outdoors and love to climb. They climbed up the waterfall that happens to right now be a tricle. The boulders were still covered in snow and the kids couldn't help but have a snowball fight with the dads. Our friends the Shraders joined us.






Olivia always thinks she has something to prove. She has no fear and was scaling the rocks. She makes me nervous sometimes.
