Fun Weekend

I usually make the kids do a lot of chores on Saturdays, but this week we decided to lighten up and work a little in the morning and then have some fun! The kids didn't have school Friday, so Taylor took the 4 oldest skiing. T.J. was excited to go to the "Bunny Hill" because he said he "would probably find lots of eggs!". I hope he wasn't disappointed! :) The kids had fun skiing and sliding down the hill on their behinds when they had finished skiing. On Saturday after doing a few chores, we took the kids downtown to a big party to celebrate the BSU Bronco's Fiesta Bowl win and perfect season. Tylor especially enjoyed that (he is our sports nut!). After that, we went out to eat at a Mexican restaurant and then went to an Idaho Steelheads hockey game. We stayed until the kids started to "melt down" because they were too tired, and then we headed home. It was great to spend the day as a family. I loved watching Jaymon rock out to the music at the Fiesta Bowl party, seeing Tylor cheer as he watched the BSU football highlights, having Jaymon hold my hand and say, "Rock and Roll, Mom!", watching Taylie and Coleton get so excited to go buy popcorn and candy, seeing T.J. get piggy-back rides on Taylie, and hearing all the admiring comments about Ray in his bear-bunting as we would walk by. I am incredibly blessed and so thankful to have these sweet kids and wonderful husband!
