Just Enjoying Spring

We have been enjoying some spring weather around here the past few days.  It is have been nice to be able to open the windows and doors and enjoy the fresh air.  The kids had spring break last week and did a bunch of stuff having fun.  I took them skiing one day to Alta and had a good time there are well.  They are great kids and picked up the skiing really fast considering we have not been this year.
We also enjoyed our conference weekend while the kids made a fort out of blankets and occasionally listened which is pretty good for them.  We had real gourmet waffles at the Brimleys on Sunday morning--they are good people to let us come over with our four kids and invade their house.

Joaquin also had Pinewood derby and I don't think I helped him much getting his car in order.  We tried a bunch of new tricks this year, but it did not seem to help much so back to the drawing board.  Joaquin really wanted to win, but he handled his middle-of-the-pack finish with grace and aplomb.

They are turning into really good kids that care for each other--except last night when Joaquin kicked the soccer ball into Laney's head while we were on the trampoline.  Oh, well can't win em' all.
