The first two days of spring break

This year for spring break since we weren't going anywhere cool, I decided we should do something fun everyday. Today was the first day and we went to the park on cliffside. It is a very nice park and the kids had a lot of fun. They of course did not want to go home so we had to bribe them with slurpees (it works everytime)! We will definitely have to go to that park again. At the bottom of this post there is a video of Abbey. When we were at the park all the kids were running down this big hill. You will see in the video that Trevor was the first to come down, then Kyra, then Jakie and me and then finally Abbey. Boy did she fall hard or what. We are seriously going to send that one in to America's Funniest Home Videos. We all had a good laugh (even her-after it stopped hurting)!






Day 2





Tuesday, day two we rode our bikes to Mt. Logan Middle School and made sand castles. They have volleyball nets there in a big sand box. We took all the needed equipment like bowls, spoons, water, empty flower pot to make something cool. Above are some of our creations. First we made this awesome sand castle. Then, we buried all the kids, except Jacob who doesn't like to get dirty. After a couple of hours we rode our bikes to Mcdonalds (my kids' favorite place to eat) and had dinner. I think the kids had a lot of fun playing in the sand. I don't think they will have fun trying to get all the sand out of their hair! Jacob's favorite thing to do was to throw the sand on everyone!
