Fun filled week

While the kids were out of school for spring break my sister in laws and I decided to take the kids to the Living planet Aquarium in Sandy. It was so crowded but the kids still had a fun time.

Look at all the creepy creatures !!!The top left picture was a octopus's so weird looking . Some of the kids were brave enough to touch the stingrays.. The kids loved seeing the cute penguins swim and jump up on platforms then back to the water.


Our weekend was spent at the sand Dunes with my Sister inlaws family,they go every year the weekend after Easter for the Roper reunion.. a lot of people just come on Saturday for the day 113 people total came out to play..My mom and dad also came down for the day Saturday to play with the Grandkids. I'm just glad they let us tag along for the last 2 years:)




The kids loved being out side riding 4-wheelers, playing in the sand in the nice warm weather. Then the stupid wind had to pick up and that was a mess with the sand!!!!



Our friends Tom and Sarah live in Oak City which was only 5 min from were we were camped so we road over to see there little cute house for the first time then they fallowed us back to camp and had dinner with us..

Traditional Easter egg hunt at grandma and grandpa Peterson's... We pulled up to there house and eggs and candy were scattered all over the grass and a few eggs were hidden and Ryker says "That's not a very good hiding job" and he just shakes his head Chace and I just laughed. With 16 grand kids it's kind of hard to hide all the eggs and candy in good hiding spots LOL! The kids had a fun time finding there eggs with there names on it . Thanks grandma and grandpa !


It's that time again to color eggs. Saturday before Easter we went to my moms house and had home made chicken noodle & chili soup and yummy hot rolls:) Then we colored eggs. Ryker had to write his own name on one of the eggs, Jill and Chace got into it too !


Ryker wasn't feeling to good Easter morning as you can see in the pictures. That morning he woke up at 7 so I took him downstairs to get some medicine then I was going to put him back to bed. Well not thinking as we were walking down the stairs he noticed on the couch that the Easter bunny had came. His eyes got all big and he ran right over to his basket and picked up his Mickey mouse and gave it a hug. So there was no going back to sleep now :( so Ryker woke up dad to have him come down to see him find his eggs that the Easter bunny had hide. The first thing Ryker wanted to do after finding his eggs was to watch his new Chipmunks movie ..

Later that day we went to my mom and dads and ate Easter dinner we had ham,rolls,chips and dips and lots of yummy salads. I loved that conference was on Easter this year it was so nice to relax eat some yummy food watch conference and spent time with family.

Our good friends Tom & Sarah invited us to go to the Circus with them. Before the circus we went to Red Robin and ate Chace and I have never been there before we thought it was pretty good:) Ryker loved seeing the circus animals do there tricks and most of all he loved the motorcycles ride in that small metal ball it was crazy I don't know how they don't crash into each other!!

It has been a few years sense we last went to the Rodeo and my mom bring so nice to take off work to watch Ryker for us we were able to go:) We hit the BIG outdoor malls to get some Christmas shopping done while we were there :)

Special Day

This was a special day for our family especially for my brother and his family. The plan was as soon as Kasey & Karen got Mac & Marleigh to the United States they were taking them to the Temple to have them sealed for time and all eternity.. It was a amazing experience and one I'll never forget. Our family is so thankful that Mac & Marleigh are with us knowing that they just barley missed the earthquake in Haiti were they lived in the orphanage 3 weeks ago ! Our Heavenly father has truly blessed our family.

Our Family was so happy that day :) The kids had a fun time being at the temple too!

Our busy day started off with family photos. We kind of went at a bad time of day with the sun and all but they turned ok I guess:)

SnOw FuN !!!

Ryker and dad were having some fun in the snow. They tryed making a snow man but the snow was to soft so they decided to try to have a snow ball fight ! Ryker thought that was funny:) Then they decided to have some fun with the sleigh and 4-wheeler.
Ryker loved it!! We made sure to buy a sleigh early this year because in past years they sell out so fast !!! and I'm glad we did:)
