Spring Break Fun
Is it possible that spring is already here? Hasn't really been feeling like spring, but I am grateful for any warmth, any sun. Shane was able to take a couple of days off to spend with the kids. We had fun going bowling, dyeing eggs and seeing a movie. Good times!

Davin the Chef!
Davin has always liked to help in the kitchen. He even once took some cooking classes, but got mad because they did not actually let him cook (use the stove). So he asked me this week if we could make homemade pizzas. I wasn't feeling good on Sunday (Valentine's Day) but he really wanted to do it, so he basically did it all himself. He made the pizza dough and then spread them out and added all the toppings. He even took things in and out of the oven and cleaned up after himself. I told Shane that now there was a chance that a man would cook me a meal in this house! (ha, ha) Oh, and Davin cut all of his hair off. He looks way too old for me!
Sophia's Valentines Spa Day
The kids have D track this year, and the one down side to that is that they don't celebrate Halloween and Valentine's Day at school. So I thought it would be fun if we invited the girls in the ward that are also on D track (there are 6 just on D) and have a little party. Of course, if you know my Soph, everything is taken to the next level. The fancier,the better. So we started by doing a craft (everything chosen by Sis) where each girl could decorate their initials that we had spray painted white with jewels and glitter glue. Then we frosted cookies. Then we painted finger nails. Then it morphed into, "Why don't we do a spa day and don't you have a cucumber for our eyes?" Well, I had to improvise there (hence the apple slices) but the girls had fun laying on the beach towels, getting their toe nails painted while they read magazines and relaxed. It was a huge success. Watch out world for this group. Can you say high maintenance? Actually, they are all really sweet, but definitely like to be pampered. Don't we all?
