Spring Break!

Monday:
We met up with lots of fun friend at the pool! Who says you can't swim when it's snowing?
Talitha, Conli, Taylor and Max Easton was SO happy to be back in the water

Tuesday:
this was a more low key day. Amy took the boys to see How to Train Your Dragon and the rest of the day we hung out at home! Tuesday evening Tiff and her friend Kelsey came over and we had a glitter toe party!
My mom showed up a little later and got her toes done too!

Wednesday:
The next day when Hayleigh saw my toes she said "WOW.. pretty toes!" and then she continued with " I wuv it!". After following me around for hours admiring my toes I gave in and asked if she wanted hers done, to which she replied "Yeah sure!"
This is what she did to entertain herself while I did her toesies!
Cute mommy and baby toes!
The boys got to go on a date with grandma and grandpa Knight that afternoon! The went to a park and to get ice cream and they also got to go to the small Dino museum at BYU!
When they got home we had some friends down to make homemade pizza!
It was yummy, and the kids loved it!
Friday:
We didn't really do anything on Thursday so we'll skip ahead to Friday! We met up at the park with awesome friend for a picnic and to play!
The kids hardly went near the playground because they thought it was way more fun to play on the giant piles of sod! Easton was taking care of Conli the whole time, when she was cold he offered her his coat and if she was hurt he made sure she was okay!
Hayleigh marched up and down the hill and picked up big rocks!
and finally all the kids played on the park for a while!
Later that day we met back up with the Garner clan at IHOP for dinner!
Daddy and Hayleigh girl!
Easton with his happy face pancake!
after dinner we said goodbye to the Garners and headed to Build a Bear
The kids took their sweet time picking their bears but after they did they LOVED them!
Hayleigh knew what she wanted the second she laid eyes on it and there was no talking her out of it!
Cleaning up their bears! We got home a little late, but we got jammies on straight away and then got into bed! Easton was wiggling his first loose tooth. He then said that he wanted to tie a string around it, tie it to the door, and then slam the door shut because he was ready for it to come out already! After he let me wiggle it, I let him know I didn't think it was quite loose enough yet. Taylor was giving him tips on how to get it more loose in a hurry. Like twist it in circles and such! Easton twisted it and said it popped, but wouldn't let me feel because it wasn't anymore loose! We'll I tucked them in and said goodnight and came down stairs. About five minutes later Easton comes down with tooth in hand and said "I popped it out!" The kid was determined and had twisted it a few more time then pushed it out with his tongue!
Showing his big brother that his tip worked!
The proud boy with his missing first tooth!
Saturday:
We decided it would be fun to Go to the Living Planet Aquarium and see the new penguin exhibit for a fun spring break activity! While we were there they had an animal show that we got to watch! The kids loved it and even got to touch some of the animals after the show! Hayleigh loved touching the snake!
Easton posing with the big fishes!
The kids by the Penguins!
They boys thought the penguins were pretty cool!
Easton pretending to take a ride down the stream
Checking out the frogs!
And the kiddos favorite part... touching the stingrays!
Hayleigh liked splashing in the water
but if a stingray came by she'd sit straight up, make a face and say " i'm done, down" she didn't like the dark swimming things coming past her!
Sunday:
The last day before headed back to school was relaxing. The kids really wanted to roast hotdogs and Jeff gave in and helped them roast their dinner!

It was a very full and fun spring break! We all had a great time!
