I really am a terrible blogger. Most of the time I think there is not to many super exciting things to report. However, the last few months have been super busy so I am only offering a tidbit of our activities. Zillah High School had their spring play. One of my Laurel girls had the lead role of Cinderella so we all went to see her. It was wonderful.


Tim showed up from work yesterday with this.





Today we went fishing. The kids LOVE it. It is pretty hard to take them all unless Tim and I are both there. I think we caught about 15 fish. The last one was a trout. I am sure they will want to go again very soon.
This weekend we are just relaxing. Won't that be nice!!!

We had a fun trip to Seattle this last weekend. Fun and exhausting! Tim took Friday off of work and we left that morning. We stopped at the outlet mall in North Bend. That was actually the first time I have shopped there in the 4 and some years that we have lived here. We stayed in Bellevue right by the Seattle Temple. I love the hotel we stay in. Huge breakfasts and a fun pool with a waterfall and really nice rooms. We hung out and went swimming then got ready and went to California Pizza Kitchen for dinner. That was also a first. I have never been to a CPK before. I like it. Then we went back to the hotel and went to sleep.
The next day we had a huge breakfast and then loaded up and went to the Museum of Flight. That was pretty awesome. There is SO much to see there. We stayed for about 3 1/2 hours. We got to go into a real Concorde Jet and a jet used as Air Force One for JFK and Nixon among a few others. After the museum we went to lunch on the pier near The Public Market Place. And we walked around for quite a while. We wanted to take a family picture so I noticed a guy who was wearing a U of U jacket standing 15 or so feet away from us with a stroller. We asked him to take our picture. We said thanks and mentioned that we were from Utah and Tim graduated from the U. After a few seconds I realized that I went to high school with him and then he light bulb went on and we said each others name at the same time in shock. Then his wife walked up and same thing, we said each others names. Weird! It was pretty crazy running into them. I went to high school with the wife as well. I didn't know they had married each other. It was fun to visit for a few minutes. We headed back to the hotel for a swim. Then we loaded up again and headed to Bellevue Square (Mall) for shopping and dinner. We decided to go to the The Cheesecake Factory. Yum! Then back to the hotel. We were all TOTALLY exhausted. Sunday Morning we ate another huge yummy Breakfast and packed up to head home. All in all it was fun. There were a few meltdowns due to being tired but what can you do? Now it is time for laundry and catching up on Conference. The kids are back in school this morning after Spring Break and we all survived,,, BARELY!

Big Buddy

Landon had a tooth pulled out at the dentist on Monday the 21st. This is the first tooth he has lost so it's a big deal. The tooth fairy remembered to come at about 6:15 a.m. after being "so sure" not to forget. I keep reminding Landon that he is supposed to stay small and he won't listen. Now he looks even older. Anyway here is a photo of that.

Before, The tooth was not pulled due to this large desert.


After.
