Spring Break 2011

Spring Break was a blast. It seems like it was just yesterday we were sleeping in! It went by way too fast, as always. Now it's back to school again and time to look back on our fun activities. After last Monday's hike to the "B", we all needed some rest and relaxation. All of us but Daddy, he was ready to hike some more. While he was at work we went to Glendale to visit family. Aunt Chalice and her kids came, Uncle Colin and Amy and Harrison were there too! Aunt Tara and the kids didn't make it, they have a later spring break than us. We missed them lots. We had a great time visiting with family at Grandma and Grandpa's house!
While we were up there we got to help Shayn celebrate his birthday. These balloons were a huge hit with both the young and the old. The big huge one sang Happy Birthday when you tapped it. Adults tapped it to get it to sing, the kids punched it. It held up very well. We all had that silly birthday song stuck in our heads for days!
The whole gang! What a crazy bunch. We went to Peter Piper Pizza one day and played for hours. The girls love visiting with all their cousins. We can't wait for summer to get here so we can spend weeks on end with them!
Even Sophie got in on the action. She loved all the attention she got while everyone was there. She's just one of the girls when were at Grandma's.
Poor Autumn! She has four brothers and no sisters. Good thing she has girl cousins. My girls loved having another girl besides their sister to play with. We had a blast!
Uncle Colin and his awesome wife Amy rock!! We had such a fun time playing at the park and watching a movie with them. It's not a family party without them! Aren't they cute?
Then there's Harry! What a great kid. He played ball with Alex. It was so cute to see him lead Alex around by the hand. Alex is going to make a great babysitter/mom someday. She was so patient and sweet. What a perfect way to spend a week off of school. Now the countdown has begun for summer break. I CAN'T WAIT!
