Happy Birthday Viv!

 
Happy Birthday Vivian! We sure love this girl! She is spunky, witty, funny and so smart! She completes us. This year she said she didn't need any toys, because she already has enough. She asked for books, games, puzzles, and a drum set. She was very happy with the little electronic drum pad we got her.

Also, Kailey married Trevor Truscott on April 19th in the Saratoga Springs Temple. Then had their reception in Joys garage. It was a great day!

Spring Break Day 4

 We started the day off with some General Conference. Then we headed over to the Dam visitors center so the kids could get their Jr Ranger badges. Today we hiked Wire Pass/Buckskin Gulch. We put in for the Wave lottery, but none of us got it. This was a great hike, the kids loved it! We went in about 3 miles. Most of the kids wanted to keep going, but we decided to head back. It is a good thing we did, the little kids were dragging the last mile back to the car. After we hiked we headed home. 

Another awesome Spring Break in the books!

Spring Break Day 3, Sedona

The drive to Sedona was beautiful. We started our Vortex tour with the Chapel of the Cross, then Airport Mesa, Bell Rock, and Cathedral Rock.

It was pretty windy and cold all day, so most of us weren't feeling the vortex's. Bensen did get a little teary eyed at the Chapel of the Cross. Viv complained about her arm hurting, and Grandpa Max's hearing aids were buzzing at Airport Mesa. My lungs were burning at Cathedral Rock...not because of the vortex, but the straight up hike to get there!

On our way back to the house we stopped in Flagstaff at Big Foot Barbeque. It was pretty good.
