An Update--Finally

Obviously, I have been in a little bit of a blogging rut. I guess winter just does that to me. I decided today that an update is LONG overdue. So, here it goes. After the ice storm things were bleak for several weeks. The kids missed 10 days of school and unfortunately they have to make them up. BLAH! My kids will be in school until the 2nd week of June. What do you do? After the storm Nathan and I took a whirlwind trip to Salt Lake without the kids (thanks grandma and grandad!) We were so excited to see family and friends and satisfy many of our Utah food cravings (can anyone say Bajio???) Here are a few photos from the trip:

The night we arrived we had dinner at my brother Dan's house with my mom, dad, and grandparents. So much fun to see everyone!

Lunch at Sweet Tomatoes (so yummy!) with Nathan's brother Will and his wife Kristy

After we came back it seemed like we just couldn't get the whole family healthy at the same time. All three kids had the stomach flu (one kid a week) and I had a sinus infection. We are now finally feeling healthy and we have been enjoying some beautiful spring weahter. Here is a picture I took of Rachel and Alison a few weeks ago--notice the coats--it was still cold outside. I make the kids play with their moon sand on the back portch (regardless of what the weather is like). I definitely don't want that mess in the kitchen!

Princess Hailey has become obsessed with dressing up. Everyday it is something new :)
Anyway, sorry about my lack over posts over the last couple months. I will do better! We have lots going on with soccer, dance recitals, and lots of fun summer activities to look forward to. Our biggest news is that we booked a vacation to Disneyworld in September. I am thrilled to not only have something to look forward to, but something to plan over the next several months! So fun! Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well!
