Spring Break

Well, we decided to make a quick trip to Utah for
Spring Break and had a great time. We started out
by driving straight to Logan. I went to Utah State
and I haven't been back for over 10 years. We drove
in from Bear Lake and I loved it. I had wanted to
take a picture of first dam, but we just drove by
way too fast. Then you just come upon the
University. And it really is such a beautiful campus.
I got so excited and we drove past the dorms and
some of my old apartments before we even got
to Traci's. (The main reason for going to Logan).
I was really nervous about going back to Logan. I
have some really great memories, but honestly I
also have some really bad memories and I wasn't sure
which ones were going to manifest when I got there.
Luckily, for all involved all I felt were great things.
After going to Traci and Collin's we all went out to
dinner and then we drove around town again. I think
I drove up and down main street like 3 or 4 times. We
also went up to the University and walked out to "The Quad".
I made the kids get up on the A and take a picture. This was not
the location of the A when I went to school here. I loved seeing
Old Main. What a Beautiful building.

We even got Traci and Collin up there and he
just attacked her. WHOA Dude!!!!!

Oh my goodness aren't we cute? Gotta love
True Aggies!!!

At Traci and Collin's we did a lot of this.... WII, wrestling,
jumping and laughing. We had such a good time. My kids
just love Traci and Collin.

We also went to a really fun park

visited the Temple. Ruby is really into Princesses right
now so she thought this was a castle and when we drove
in to Town there was a wedding and so she thought the
bride was a princess. I told her she was absolutely right!!!
I think this is absolutely beautiful.

My kids never giving collin and inch to himself.

And Traci doing Ruby's nails. The rest of the trip she showed
off her nails and told everyone about Traci doing them.

When we left Logan we went to Bountiful to see our friends.
First we met at the park and had lunch and then went back
to the house. It was cold and rainy outside and the kids didn't
notice a thing. They played outside for hours and we just got
to hang out. Of course it is never enough time.

Don't Dawn and I still look like we are in College.

Then we had dinner with Brandie and Kevin. We were there
for hours, luckily no one sat by us to be disturbed by our
children. Of course, kevin is a laugh a minute. So we were
laughing all night long.

The kids became instant friends.

The next day we went to the museum and spent the day with
Amanda and the kids. Jonny was out of town of course.
We had such a great time.

Emma posed for me the whole day.

Growling!!!!!

One of our favorite things to do is to go to Temple
Square. Some stranger took our picture. So we are
cute, but fuzzy.

Sadie and Ruby in front of the Temple.

After we left Logan, We stayed at Amy's parents
house in Alpine. It was really nice of them to
let us stay there. We had lots of space and they
even brought in some cats for my kids to play with.
Amy came in the day before we left so we got to see
her too. She came to speak at BYU about Rising Star.

Cory and I had a great time visiting with friends
and can't wait to go back.
