Easter Weekend

Easter weekend at our house was very relaxing.  The weather was perfect!  The weekend was filled with the usual activities of dying eggs and hunting eggs followed by church and eating out after.  The weather was so nice on Sunday that the kids and I went for a bike ride around the park together.  This was a first for us! 








Spring Break

This year for Spring Break, we hit the slopes again.  We drove to Colorado and stayed at the base of Copper Mountain.  The kids spent 3 days in ski school and the fourth day we all skied together.  They learned a lot and were very impressive by the end of the week.  Andy even skied his first blue run, appropriately named Andy's Encore!  

The highlight of the day was always when we picked them up from school.  The lifts were always open for another hour, so they had a chance to ski with us and show us all of their new tricks.  For Andy, this usually involved tree trails and jumps.  It won't be long before they will be out-skiing their parents!

Arizona Day 2

Our second day in Arizona was another busy one.  We checked out mom's new house and then headed out for some family pictures.  The kids all did remarkable well!  We ended the weekend with a birthday dinner for mom back at Matt's house.  The kids were exhausted by the end of the weekend, but can't wait to see their cousins again!
