I know this post is a little late but hey better late than never. I took the boys out of school a few days early and we headed down to Arizona for the first half of Spring Break. Eric's parents just built a house in Snowflake so that was our first stop. On the way there we stopped at one of the arches and hiked up to it. The two older boys thought it was great but Alex was petrified. He did not like climbing up at all. Of course I was the only adult and I did not want Andrew and Josh going on there own nor could I leave Alex. So Alex hiked up most of the way with us. It was a fun spot. While in Snowflake, the boys searched for old pottery pieces left around, went on easter egg hunts and just enjoyed spending time with Grandma and Grandpa. We then headed down to Cave Creek to see cousins. Of course the boys loved that. We had a great time swimming and playing. Eric and I even got to do a little scuba diving.It was only in a 14ft deep pool but Eric loved ut. He was able to be with us for Easter.The final leg of our journey was in California. We went to my parents house. The boys love to ride their bikes in the front at Grammie and Poppa's. You would think that they had never done that before. We spent all our time in front watching them ride. They loved it. We did go to Oak Glen on Saturday and got to see some animals and even feed them. Alex who has a thing with shoes was not to keen on being in with the animals because dirt was getting in his shoes. But my Uncle Mike was so good with him and totally helped him. He helped keep the peace. We loved being at Grammie and Poppa's. My mom then drove back up to Utah with us so that she could see the other grandkids and also be here to help while I had knee surgery. What would I do without my mom? She is the best and she truly was a blessing this last week. She did everything for us and I am so grateful to her. I was sad to see her go but am thanksful she was here. We had a great Spring Break seeing family and being with themDon't we look like a happy family? Smile everyone!We thought this was so funny. Andrew was trying to scare us
Alex's new best friendFinally a picture where they were all happy!!
