April 1st: Catherine got invited to Gracy's birthday party! So fun that Cinderella came! Also it was April Fools Day, so McKay and I made some Brown Es for the family! haha Naturally we made real ones too!
April 2nd-3rd: General Conference weekend!! Kids are slowly getting better at sitting and listening for awhile! In between breaks we went for a walk and McKay desperately had to go potty! haha
April 9th: Chris has been working on the garden but missed the garden bed and hit his leg with the flat head shovel instead! Ouch! He was hurting for quite awhile and had to ice it because it swelled up!
April 13th: For work Little Road Co went to Utah Food Bank for a team activity! Luckily there is Keana, she keeps things fun and lively!
Later on that day was the Easter program for Catherine at school! Loved watching her sing and dance! They all, even McKay got lots of candy at the end!
April 15th: Christine, Abby, and I all met up with our kids at Altitude Trampoline Park. Afterwards we went to In and Out Burger! The kids all had a blast playing together!
That evening Chris took just McKay rock climbing! He absolutely loved it and did a really good job too! He took him to get ice cream afterwards! Perfect daddy and McKay date!
April 16th: Our neighbor invited a bunch of kids from our ward to do a little Easter Egg Hunt in her backyard! It was fun to catch up with those from our ward! Kids enjoyed getting More candy!
That night it was Catherine's turn to go on a daddy date! They also went rock climbing and got ice cream! She did extremely well rock climbing...She would climb to the top with such ease! She is just so naturally athletic in all areas!
April 17th: Happy Easter!!! We invited Matt+Kaitlin and their kids over for coloring eggs, dinner, and easter egg hunt, followed by yard games! We also invited Matt from our ward to join us as well! It was a perfect evening! All the kids had fun and did so well! They had lots of fun playing the bottle frisbee game! Plus they got lots more CANDY!!
April 24th: We went to Day Break Lake to take some pictures of the kids for their birthday photoshoots. I also needed a couple pictures to send to the head track coach for the website! I had a hard time choosing which one to go with but this is what I ended up with!
April 26th: I took McKay for a walk so he could practice riding his bike! He is doing so well! He feels like he has to pedaling the whole time instead of just relaxing, but when I tell him to stop pedaling he pedals backwards which makes it stop! haha so lots of stop and go action here!
(BUNNY FACE, haha)
April 18th: Spring Break at Capital Reef National Park: Day 1
As soon as we got there we went to the visitors center to look around and use the restrooms. We then made our way to bakery house and got ourselves a pie!! We took that to a little picnic table and started having lunch while waiting for grandma and grandpa to meet up with us! After we had our lunch we started on our first hike that took us along the river to a waterfall! The kids absolutely loved playing in the water!! We loved how there were no other people and loved soaking up the sun!! After the hike we went and checked into our really awesome cabin…the kids loved all the bunk beds!!
April 19th: Spring Break at Capital Reef: Day 2 Hiking Cassidy Arch
Rough hike for little ones but we did it and no one fell off the side of the cliffs! The kids did really well and were super excited about all the different wholes in the rocks! I loved that hike! Never have I ever been on top of an arch before! I felt like I was on top of the world! But it made Chris super nervous with the drop off cliffs and me being on top of the arch! What a great day that definitely wore us out!
April 20th: Day 3 at capital reef: hiking through some narrows! Lots of rock hunting! Chris found a geode and Catherine found petrified wood! I think we were all feeling pretty tired and ready to be going home! On our drive home we stopped at fish lake for 30 minutes and Kerry caught one fish and Caden caught two massive ones all by himself!! Best Spring break! Best part was being together as a family with grandma and grandpa and being in the outdoors!
April 21st: Happy Birthday Jackson!! We celebrated it a week late but it is all on a separate post!
April 23rd: It was Caden's turn to go on a mommy date! We also went rock climbing and got ice cream! He loved it and also did extremely well! I think we were both feeling tired after that....at least our arms anyway!
Later that day we went and picked up Catherine's bed set from RC Willey! I was so excited to get it all set up before she got home from school to surprise her! She was so excited and loved it!! YAY! Caden went to Sams house after school and Catherine had Grace and Andie come to our house! They all loved her new room so much! Catherine was just full of pure joy! This bed set has been a Very LONG time coming!
April 29th: I helped Abby out again by watching all of her kids! So glad I can help, it all feels so fresh on my mind of what it is like to have a baby! Fun group of kids!
April 28th: First day of Gymnastics and Ninja! Both Catherine and McKay loved it so much! We are going to keep doing this for the next couple of months! Catherine naturally did so well on everything...the beams were the worst for her however!
That night I ran 7 miles on a fun little trail! Had to take a picture to show Chris!
April 30th: I went to the Orem track meet! I had to bring McKay and Catherine with me! They actually did pretty good considering how long they had to endure! Exciting part was that I ran into Mary's soon to be roommate and javelin teammate! I also let Catherine throw a couple Javelins, she was Really good! I have a future javelin star in the making! While I was at the track meet Chris took the other kids to go get his new fishing hat and he also finished the garage project! Looks so good, now we just need to start filming for House2Home!
