This year Kinley did hip hop instead of ballet and she loved it. The dance was super cute. (I haven't been able to get the video to upload I will keep trying)
Every year we hike a canyon with Larry's side of the family for Easter. My kids are to the age they don't want to walk with us any more so there is not many pictures. This year was a little crazy because of all the water. The young boys carried all the kids and some of the women across a pond of deep water, it was really neat it reminded me of reading about the hand cart company where the young men carried people across the icy river. The boys were so cold but they kept going back and forth until everyone was across. By the time they were done their legs were bright red and hurting. Talk about selflessness. Larry's sister Shauna took the kids out lizard hunting the kids loved it!!! Look how cute
Yes this year we caught the leprechaun. Last year we only got the shoe, but this year the boys made a good trap and we caught him. He had a little card in his hat and it said he will only stay for a little while and when the kids aren't watching he will go back to his family. They are keeping a close eye on him they don't want him to go.
My kids love Las Vegas. Two years ago on our way home from California we got stopped in a traffic jam for 4 hours on the freeway right outside of Vegas, so because it was so late we decided to stay there. We stayed at Circus Circus and because it was midnight we were able to go play games and win everyone so of course our kids thought it was so fun. We stayed in Vegas one night on the way out and 2 nights on the way back. We did discover an amazing hotel on the trip back and will stay there from now on. They had an amazing pool and a full basketball court. Speaking of that Larry took the kids out to shoot hoops while I napped, about 15 min. later they were back and Larry was telling me to go get ice. Easton had got hit in the head with the bar you turn to make the the basket go up and down. It didn't break the skin but it was a huge lump then 2 black eyes followed. We had so much fun just hanging out and enjoying the good weather.
Our trip to disneyland!! So much fun I wish we were still there. The weather was amazing the whole time and the lines at disneyland were really short. My kids are already wanting to go back. Larrys parents went with us and we were able to see Melissa's new baby and hang out with larrys sister and another niece that lives in Gorgia. We love spending time with family that we don't get to see very often.
Makinley and Kyson were tall enough to ride everything and they did. They were so brave and loved all the scary rides. Easton on the other hand is our scared child he did not want to ride anything we had to force him on the first ride I think people thought we were abusing him because he was screaming so loud, but I knew he would like it after he did it and he did.
