Our Annual Easter Scavenger Hunt

I have to admit that I haven't been as dedicated as I should be in keeping up our family tradition but my kids were not left wanting. Kelly came down for Easter and brought her wonderful scavenger hunt clues and prizes.

The weather was chilly but not bad, and the kids didn't seem to care s they ran around chasing clues.

We went back and forth from our house to grandma's house. In the wood pile and around the tractor. Poor Bentley and Peyton had a hard time keeping up with the big kids.

The highlight of the weekend I think was that the kids set up the trampoline. This year the snow melted and so we were able to put it up earlier than normal.Thanks Kelly for helping keep the Easter tradition going.

What Happened In Vegas Part 2

 On Sunday Tia and Voi came to visit. We played games and Suz made some yummy cookies. On Monday we went to Circus Circus to play at the Adventuredome. Our favorite ride was a pirate ship that swings back and forth.

 For lunch we went and got the kids Chinese food. Britnee wanted to learn how to use chopsticks with her noodles. Voi was so patient in showing her and she was thrilled when she finally figured it out.

 We spent the afternoon at the Mirage watching the dolphins and the Secret Gardens.

 On Tuesday Bart and Michelle brought the girls over. We went out to Blue Diamond and Bonnie Springs to play.

 The weather was beautiful and we had so much fun at the little park in town. The kids played and played on the skate park there.

What Happened In Vegas Part 1

 Spring Break finally came. Yeah! We have been so excited about our trip to Vegas. As the trip got closer, we made all the arrangements to go to California but when we saw the weather report we decided to stay in Vegas. It ended up being cold and rainy in California but pretty nice in Vegas.

 So onto plan B. We ended up doing a couple of little things that turned out to be pretty fun. We played in the backyard with a hose and some balls the first night. We went to Suzett's brothers house to swim in the pool and have a bar-b-que the next night.

 On Saturday we ventured onto the strip just far enough to go to Johnny Rockets for some yummy lunch at the mall. While we were there they had a fashion show where the floor rose up to make a run way. The kids all thought that was pretty cool. Cody tried to show us later how the models walked and we got a laugh over it.

 Then we all headed over to the Mandalay Bay to the Shark's Reef Exhibit. We got to see lots of great aquamarine mammals and Brit and I even braved touching the backs of some sting rays.

 Jaycee and Britnee got to play beauty parlor and get their hair done. It was Brit's first time. Anyway, tha'ts what we did instead of going to California. Not bad huh. Tune in to the next post for the rest of our adventure's in Vegas.
