Friday

Friday morning was the start of our Spring break.  I took Seth to the dinosaur museum so I could get some walking in, and then the kids asked to go to the farm country after school.... so I got more waking in.  I have really liked the Thanksgiving Point pass.  It's been nice to feel like we can go whenever.  We took our neighbor. 

The rest of Spring Break we've done a little of everything. Monday, we went to the All Around Playground for a playdate with Parker, Evelyn's friend from school.  Then we joined Seth and Janelle at their house for a yummy dinner and to watch The Greatest Showman.  Tuesday, we went to the park again, but this time with a few ladies and their kids from our ward.  Then we went to Thanksgiving Point with Nellie and watercolored in the gardens.  Wednesday was our stay home day.  Thursday we went to the Jordan River Temple openhouse. And Friday Ada watched Seth and Evelyn while Jer and I took Sam to the Symphony with our Robertson Grandparents.  It's been a fun week.

This goat has an epic goatee....



Daddy joined us on his way home from work. 



This pretty much sums up the relationship between these two.  They love each other but like to pretend that they don't.





Seth kept saying that he was going to ride all by himself.  He didn't want anyone's help.  Jer walked around a little ways away from him, but I guess we're getting into that stage where none of the kids really need us to physically be right next to them all the time.

The many faces of Ada Robertson








Wilcox family Easter party


Emma wanted a face full of whipped cream... Ada, surprisingly, did not.

This year we dyed eggs a different way.  We put whipped cream in a pan, put food coloring on it and let the kids roll the eggs in it.  They turned out very pretty, and my sister thought to buy gloves to keep the dye off of hands.





You let them dry like this for a while, then you rinse them off and you're all set.

This baby wanted to join in the fun, so we gave her some whipped cream without the food coloring and she ate the entire bowl full using the egg like a spoon.


A halftime game of pokemon....

Sharon and Brad blew up balloons and everyone had to race without popping them. That was fun.





Then we made a huge mess in the garage, but the kids absolutely loved it!  They brought their pictures home and hung them on the wall.  Sharon filled egg shells with paint and then threw them at their papers.





Then the Easter Egg hunt.







Facetiming with our missionary Grandparents.


Michelle loved my camera yet again.... And look at these cute pictures she took of Vivien.



 

Rhees Family

This is such a fun family.  They're sweet and playful.  It's fun to get to know them and try not to freeze in the cold rain!  It was...
