Spring Break!
























For spring break we went to Phoenix, AZ. We were able to stop in St. George and visit Grandpa and Grandma Cooper and my cousin Stacie (+ kids). Shannon's kids weren't able to go with us because their spring break was not during this time (but hopefully next time the school breaks will coincide). We were able to visit with Hans and Cindy and all their cute girls and Ian. It was a blast. The highlights of the trip were going to a spring training game, playing in the pool with Mariah, Madison and Annie (also....the chicken fights between kayla and dallin ontop of Shannon and Ian {see picture}), going out to dinner and of course Shannon's favorite was going to Last Chance (basically a Nordstrom outlet). We drove down--everybody did fairly well with the drive. We stopped multiple times to site see and we were able to see someone bungee jump off a bridge near the Grand Canyon. What we loved the most----the heat of course!!!

Happy Birthday Holly!










We had a fun birthday party for Holly at Classic Skating (in SLC). The kids were able to go on the bouncy rides and roller blade. We ate Pizza and had cake and ice cream! Everybody got worn out. Just look at all the red faces!!!

Easter





























We had lots of fun Easter weekend. We were able to spend easter in SLC at Coach and Granny's house! Thanks for letting our huge family crash your house! It was fun to see everyone. Unfortuanatley none of our kids won the "Golden Egg" that had $20.00. Hailey won it and we all vote that she be eliminated from next years' hunt! Ha ha.... just kidding. We didn't manage to get one picture of all the kids together with all the chaos....8 kids now. So here are some individual pictures. Of course the girls wanted to pose in their dresses (except Kayla who was tired). The boys weren't to thrilled about getting church clothes for easter either. Hence, no picture of Dallin except for when he was getting ready for the easter egg hunt outside.
