Spring Break

The funny thing about spring break is that the weather isn't very spring-like in Utah/Idaho. This year was no exception. We got snowed on on Thursday but sunburned by Saturday. There has been snow today and yesterday too. We worked in the yard while listening to Conference and had a sort of relaxing day Sunday (since we got to sit down!) Kenny turned 3. AND it was Easter. Holy cow, it was a crazy spring break. I'll let the pictures do the talking.

got a load of topsoil on Friday after moving all the pit liner and remaining rocks

Kenny's main present: a sandbox!


I made "Good Eats" cake, as requested (devil's food).

Katie liked it too!


A whole lot of whining happened while we were working in the yard.

We did a little egg hunt in our yard on Saturday.

What's left in the yard: spread out topsoil, build dry creek bed (with the gravel and rocks on the patio/walkway), plant grass, plant the garden (3X the space as last year.) I'm really excited to see how it all looks when it's done. Between last summer and this year, we have spent hundreds of hours outside. It's going to be well worth it.
