Spring Break 2015

So, we had spring break the last week in March going into April.  We started it off with an Easter Egg hunt put on by the Foster Care Foundation for all the children in Foster Care as well as for their foster families.

We supported our neighbors in a bake sale.

 A few weeks before we had a small company cut down our huge tree in the back yard so we could make room for more garden space.  I love what David did with the tree log.  Instead of having them haul it away, he is using it to line the garden bed.  He's so smart with things like that.

 It was over Conference Weekend and since Levi received the Priesthood recently, this was his first time being able to go to the Priesthood Session for the men.  Usually they go to a Stake Center and watch it there but a friend of ours gave David and Levi tickets so they actually got to be there at the Conference Center watching it in person.

 Levi had brought home some passes to Fat Cats for free bowling from school for being such an awesome student.  All the boys got to enjoy but it was really fun watching Hyrum take it so seriously as he made sure his ramp was in the right spot each time.  Such a cutie. 

 The Smith kids were over at our house the majority of the time during spring break.  Lots of playing went on but this was the big project.  It took Daygen and Levi almost 3 days to master this. 

 The boys were spoiled by the "Easter Bunny."

 And I tricked the boys!

Between the Conference Sessions that we were watching at home, we went outside to dye Easter Eggs.  Well, before the boys came out I secretly took the clear crayon and wrote "Mom Rocks!" on one of the eggs.  What you write with these crayons don't show up until you dye them.  Brigham was the  lucky boy who picked up the egg and after he dyed it, this was his reactions!  It was so funny.  He said, "What the heck!  It says Mom Rocks!"

 

And don't you forget it, boy!
