We colored eggs.

 

Connor and Cayden were excited to see that the Easter bunny brought.

Caleb wanted to be woken up later. Much later!

For Narnia!

The hard workers!

 

The very non-fat potatoes.

 

As usual our Spring Break lasted over a week.  The kids got out of school on Friday afternoon April 15 and did not have to go back until Monday April 25.  We did not do much over the first weekend.  Monday I had a regular doctor appointment .  Don took the kids hiking to Valley of Fire on Tuesday. Cody had to work Tuesday and Wednesday.  We left for Provo on Thursday and stayed until Monday because I do not like driving home on Easter Sunday. We went to the movie Rio, went to Chuck E. Cheese, and the boys went for Sushi and Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory chocolate.  The girls went to a baby shower for my cousin and then Suzanna and I went to The Women's Expo at UVU.  We also spent an hour and half at Verizon getting Cody and Connor new phones.  Connor has gone through almost as many as Cody has in the last few years. Cody wears his out and Connor drops his and scratches it up.  Saturday evening we ordered gobs of pizza and then colored eggs. We got up Sunday morning and saw what the Easter Bunny brought (Cody and Caleb wanted to sleep more than open eggs so they saw their stuff later than Cayden and Connor.  Connor woke up at 7:30 all excited which was ok because we had 9am church) then after church we made a killer Easter dinner, the likes of which we have not had before.  We made a tasty ham, incredible scalloped potatoes. asparagus and hollandaise sauce, an awesome pasta salad, the ever delicious strawberry pretzel salad and rolls.  For dessert we had a super yummy and easy strawberry pie and Grandma Penny made a tasty coconut cake.  We seriously ate ourselves sick!   After dinner Connor and Caleb hid eggs for the littler kids and then we had an Easter egg hunt.  The kids played with bubbles and planted pumpkin seeds with grandma. Connor, Owie and Lexie had to do some digging in grandma's flower beds.  Monday morning we drove home after a stop at Chic Fil A.  It was a very fattening Spring Break.
