Spring BREAK... Where's the break?!

Since we have kids that attend 2 different school districts then our spring break gets a little messy and add some screwed up schedules into the mixtures.. we do what we can and this is what we ended up with!.. I had all 4 kids on Wednesday night, Thursday, Friday and Saturday with it being Easter weekend and having family parties we decided to stay in town instead of going to visit Scot so I tried to keep us going and busy so that we wouldn't go nuts at home especially since the weather has decided to NOT make my life easy!! Thursday morning I hauled all the kids to haircuts at the crack of dawn, they think I'm so mean to have them wear their pj's but they were coming home to shower the hair off them anyways! After haircuts and cleaning up we grabbed Grandma Cindy and met my cousin Melissa and her boys at the mall and we headed up to Ogden where...
The White's visit the White House!!!
hahahaha
Yeah right like that's what the scene would look like! All the kids would be mauling Obama and I would be encouraging it! We actually visited the Tree House... it's such a fun place to go and the kids always have a blast! They played in the Oval Office...

Played every drum and chime you can think of without getting told to stop!


Visited the fishing boats in Japan and caught some sea creatures!


Next we hit up the local Rodeo and rode some buckin' broncos!


Then off to Emery's kingdom where we watched the Jester and Knight do a show!

Such cute trouble makers!!

Here's some of the Tennant's and my boys... they went from acting to wrestling and so we changed scenes!!

Last stop the fire truck... so much fun and well worth the drive! The kids were totally exhausted after we got home and slept very good that night!


Friday morning we woke up and did some chores, ran some errands and then headed to the Tennant's house again for the White Family Easter Party!!... The kids love hanging out with their cousins and the Tennant's have a great house to play at and have some fun!

All the kiddos lining up and getting ready to find the Easter eggs! There wasn't too much snow in the yard so we bundled up and everyone ran and grabbed eggs as fast as they could because it was still a bit chilly!

Grandma Cindy trying to steal candy from the little kids!

Mason and Emery dying some Easter eggs!


Aidan and Hunter gettin' their dye on! Thanks Tennant's for hosting the Easter party and thanks to the White Family for making it so much fun! When we went through all the candy we ended up with 4 big zip lock bags full of candy! So spoiled!
Saturday in between conference we headed to the Frank Family Easter Party and once again the kids had a great time and got spoiled! The great thing about the Frank family is the Easter Egg hunts.. it takes forever to find the eggs because the uncles hide them all and it's never easy!

Aidan's basket was the only one actually visible this year!


Emery and Aidan showing off their goods!

After Hunter and Aidan found their baskets they walked around the yard like it was the hardest thing they had ever done! haha They were a little bit dramatic!


The guys hide the baskets so well that we had to stop and figure out where the last ones were hidden and who hide them! Makes it more interesting that's for sure!

We all had a great Easter and a fun Spring Break! Mason and Aidan head back to school tomorrow morning and Emery and Hunter still have another day to go and then back to the grind and crazy schedules! Never a dual moment that's for sure! Only a week or two until Ben comes home and we are all super excited for that!
Last but not least to end this post is Miss Emery...

She finally had a loose tooth... not one but both bottom teeth were loose! They were starting to drive me nuts because you could see how loose they were and weren't budging at all... so I grabbed a tissue and twisted them both out! She was a brave girl and didn't cry at all! The tooth fairy visited that night and in my opinion spoiled her!
