Since we last chatted we had a week of spring break where we didn't do much but for now I think that is okay. I see many people who go out and have these grand adventures and think maybe we should do that too but then I think about the grand adventures we have here in our home. Last night we got to see a moose ski and learned about protecting the environment from the Lorax. During the day we dug in the dirt and got to be super heros. I think that is my favorite because they all look so cute!
See aren't they adorable! Sophie was running around saying "La la la....underpants!" For those of you who don't know in the new movie Captain Underpants every time the principal turns into Captain Underpants he says "La la la" It is the cutest thing in the world to hear her say it. Emmagrace loves being Princess Ballerina Owlette and Lehi is just crazy!
On the last day of spring break I had the day off and Drew had the entire day off which is rare that he doesn't have a soccer game in the evenings so we decided to go bowling together as a family. It was so much fun watching the kids bowl. They loved pushing the ball down the dinosaur ramp toward the pins. Emmagrace wouldn't even watch as the ball went down the lane she would just start yelling that she got one. It worked for her I guess because she totally creamed Lehi and I. I mean how does a 3 year old get two strikes in a row! We then got pizza in their little arcade place and got to play arcade games and watch Disney Channel. It is days like this that makes me fall in love with my family even more!
This girl would not let anyone help her take her ball to the ramp
As you can see she is cheering before her ball even gets to the pins
Lehi dancing as well as he waits for his ball to get to the pins
Sophie yelling "I did it"
As you can see Emmagrace totally kicked our trash

We also played outside a lot while the weather was really nice and Sophie really enjoyed driving her siblings around.
Recently I was called as our ward Activity Day's leader and I have loved it so far. We have only had one activity but that one activity really helped my love for the girls and for Jesus grow. Our lesson was on the events leading up to the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ. Most of that morning and early afternoon I was having a really crummy day. I didn't feel that great emotionally and was just really angry and annoyed at my kids and at my job. As I was getting the lesson ready I was still feeling that way. When we got to the church and started talking I was able to share my testimony with the girls and I could really feel the spirit there with us. We then made Easter lilies with our hand prints. Lehi really got into it as well. I love being able to share my testimony with those girls and hopefully my kiddos get a little of it to.
