What we've been up to

It's the first week of Jack's spring break and since we just got back from Utah, we decided to stay home and take it easy :)
The week before spring break, Jack had a field trip to Superstition Farm and I got to chaperone. I sure love my cute kindergartener and watching him interact with his friends!







We were in Utah over Spencer's birthday and we didn't bring any of his birthday presents. He opened them when he got home. MY favorite gift he got was his roller blades :)
Looking so fine in his new "fruit boots!"


The 6th graders at Jack's school performed the Lion King Jr. last week and Jack got to watch it during school but he could not. stop. talking. about it! He begged and begged for me to take him again for the night performance for the families and I really didn't want to go because Spencer had a late meeting so I would have to take Kate too during her bedtime. But he was relentless so Jack, David, Kate, and I all went to the Lion King Jr. and we loved it :) Mostly because Jack and David were mesmerized by it, because of Jack's play-by-plays of every scene, and because after every seen Jack would clap and cheer so loud and say, "I told you it was amazing mom! I TOLD YOU!!!" We went to a really amazing Lion King show two years ago at Disney World but Benjamin Franklin Elementary School's 6th grade's performance took the cake ;)

I've been enjoying blogging outside these last two weeks while the weather is still amazing.


We went to pick more citrus at a friend's house and Kate was such a good helper... NOT!

David LOVES the skate park! We try to go early in the morning before the "big kids" get there. We took David's cute little neighbor buddy last time and they rocked it :)
 
We tried the Toasted Mallow (gourmet s'mores and marshmallows) the other day and none of us were huge fans... maybe we got the wrong thing???

Kate is already obsessed with phones and ipads #momfail. But it was so cute watching David help her play "Temple Run" the other day! haha

We hiked the hieroglyphics trail on Saturday and loved it! David hiked the entire 4 miles round trip by himself and with very few tears! (Thanks to about 50 jolly ranchers!!! haha)














My favorite screenshots of the week:

Also, very very very grateful to not be participating in daylight savings this year!!

And here is another photodump of pictures of Kate!!! I have never let her play in the sand before and here is why...








This girl loves sand!!!
... And swimming and bear crawling :)


And she HATES dresses. I didn't realize how cute-but-not-functional dresses were on crawling baby girls!!
