Spring Break started out with a fun little Easter egg hunt in the house. We then settled into the office in our pj's, moon chairs and snacks for a wonderful weekend of conference.
Tuck ditched conference for some lego time. He tells us that he has given up on trains...I sure wish he would have told me this last November (Christmas + birthday = a heck of a lot of trains) He spent 8 HOURS putting star wars legos together that Saturday.
Dave and I enjoyed an evening of Micheal Buble and sushi! Don't know which part I enjoyed more - the sushi was that good.
We got word that Dave's grandmother passed away and we headed to the Tri-Cities for the week. I forgot my camera and realized that I had no documentation of this wonderful trip until the end. Words cannot describe how wonderful that little trip was. It was filled with much love, tears, and a lot of fun. The picture below is our hotel. It was a cute, new little place that had only been open one month. The kids said it was the nicest place they'd ever been (I think they just loved the new smell:)
Since we were there mid week, we had the pool all to ourselves. I think they swam a total of 6-8 hours!
We hit this terrible thing on the way home. The emergency radio channel announced "chains required" to go over the pass. Fortunately, they let us through and we gently crept our way over the slick mountain. Thank goodness for dual screen DVD players.
Back at home-Liza modeling a hand-me-down dress from Eden. Grandma Liz made this special piece for us 6 or so years ago.
Took the kids to the science museum on Friday. These are pics from the butterfly exhibit.

The creatures ALWAYS land on Eden. She has a gift...they love her.
Butterfly on Makay's shoe.
Luke is quite the scientist. We couldn't pull him away from the experiment tables. He can't wait to go back!
