Spring is coming!!

We had a beautiful day here today. Temperatures were in the 50's and the kids were in heaven! They rode their bikes and explored the woods on and off for about 6 hours! Cooper was a little afraid at first that he would not remember how to ride his bike, but the old adage is true- he was the one begging the other kids to go out and ride again. We live on a CIRCLE now, so it is really easy for the kids to ride! The kids were complaining before bed about their bums being sore from all the riding! Sore is good!!
Tonight while Adam was at Stake Priesthood meeting, the kids and I went to Petco to buy some new fish. They were having a sale on guppies- 5/$5.00! Emma got a black one and named it Peach. Cooper's is orange and named Toad. Bekah's is yellow and named Alex. And Brayden's is blue, named Blue Streak, but is calling him Streak for short! I'm hoping they don't die quickly. I thought we still had fish food, but realized when we got about 5 minutes from home that we had given our fish food away with our goldfish when we left TX. I'm hoping 4 tiny guppies can make it til Monday!

It was beautiful here today too - Anna loved being able to play outside..almost as much as I loved sending her out there ;) Bike bum hurts at first - definitely something you have to get used too. Love the temple video and good luck with the fish!

We hit 80 this weekend!! It was beautiful. I had a garage sale Saturday to pay for some of Jordan's many activities. He is doing Scuba with Bobe's family. He is playing baseball and has a tournament coming up. Plus let us not forget Mountain Men. They just keep getting more expensive. Being that Jordan is the last one at home you would think that I would be used to it but I think that because he is the last one home he gets spoiled with doing a ton more than the others did. Anyway, good to hear that all is well with you and your cute family. Love ya!
