St. George- Day #1





Last week, we went to St. George with some of our friends. Our first day riding was at Sand Hollow. At the end of our riding day, we drove through a hail storm and got soaking wet. We had never ridden in the sand before and it was so much fun.

Just Because...

We woke up this morning and it was snowing.

Destrie says "Why is it snowing?" "That was last season."

The only answer I had for him was- "I don't know, I really don't know."

Seriously, the weather here is crazy.

More Crack Ups from Destrie

#1
The other day we were in the car and Destrie was playing with "Woody" from Toy Story. He's just like the one in the movie, with the pull string that makes him talk. For some reason, Destrie decided to bang Woody really hard on the side of the car. He banged it hard enough that Woody wouldn't talk anymore. We told Destrie he shouldn't have done that because now his toy was broken. He looked at us, shrugged his shoulders and matter of factly said, "Well, it was made in China." This kid kills me. I have no idea how he comes up with this stuff.

#2
We were driving home from St. George last night and Destrie kept asking me if I could get him a "Fat Kid". I kept asking him what he was talking about and he just kept saying, "I want a Fat Kid." After several minutes, I figured out that he wanted a Fatboy Ice Cream Sandwich. Too Funny.

2 Months Until Go Time

Tonight, I have really just one thought on my mind...Running.

As I mentioned earlier, Kile and I are training to run the Wasatch Back Relay Race on June 18th. Today is April 18th. That means we have exactly two months left to train. Things are going good, but honestly they could be better. I am really nervous.

Something fun... and Yummy





I bought this chocolate melter some time around Valentines Day and just barely got around to actually using it. We dipped strawberries and cookies over Spring Break. Madee really loves "dipping" stuff. I think we will try Cinnamon Bears next...

Spring Break

Well, it's officially over and regular life resumes in the morning...bright and early. Honestly, I could go on living Spring Break week forever. Kile had to work Monday and Tuesday, but was off the rest of the week. Monday was cleaning day and we got a bunch of stuff done around the house. Tuesday we went to lunch @ The Olive Garden and did some shopping and then we met up with Kile to see "Alice in Wonderland". Wednesday Kile and I went for a run and just hung out the rest of the day. That night we went to dinner @ Texas Roadhouse with my brother and his girlfriend. Thursday and Friday we just kind of hung out. Saturday we did lunch and shopping again. It was a great week off. We had fun and got a lot of stuff done. It was fun while it lasted. Now... back to reality.

Easter 2010












Easter weekend was fun. We colored eggs, had our own Easter egg hunt in the backyard when it warmed up a little and we left carrots for the Easter Bunny to eat when he came to fill the kid's baskets. I'm curious, do most people leave carrots for the Easter Bunny or is it just our family that does?
