FHE...

Again it is Monday night, and again it is time for family home evening. This week it was Jake's turn, now to let you all know Jake has been planning his FHE for a week now. And every night after dinner he would ask "is it home evening tonight"? Everyday when he got home from school he would tell us what he was going to do for FHE, we had yoga planned, a puppet show planned, a dance contest planned as well. But when last night finally came it was family P.E. night. By the time we were are done Lynn was in a good sweat. Jake would yell out what he wanted us to do and then give a whistle and yell out something else for us to do. In Jake's mind 15 seconds is a long time so as a family we went from one thing to the next in 15 seconds, it was a great work out. Some of the things he asked us to do was, have a staring contest with our eyes closed, attack dad, attack Ben, and hold all the family room lap blankets up above our heads. It was a lot of fun and Jake did a great job, I can't wait until it is his turn again!

Spring Break!!

So for spring break this year I thought I didn't want to stay in town, so I packed up my kids and went to see my sister Cami in Montana. Yes, Montana and believe it or not the weather was nicer up there then in Salt Lake. We went to Fairmont Hot Springs, where the water in the pools were between 87 to 95 degree's. The hot pools where between 97 to 105 degree's, I think I sweat off at least 5 pounds. They had a five story water slide that the older boys and Meg had fun going down all day. They had indoor and outdoor pools, we spent most of the time outside in the cool wind just sitting and playing in the Olympic size pool. Mike, Cami's husband knew people with horse's so we spent one day learning to ride and then riding all over the country side. We had so much fun this spring break and even got a little sun to brag about. Thank you Cami and Mike for a fun full weekend. Travis, Josh and I at the hot springs, the Three Amigo's...
