A 4 Day!!

This weekend has been wonderful! Steve had Friday and Monday off for the Easter holiday. Hence the title a phrase taken from the Army, "A 4 day." It was way nice since he is leaving for some more training soon. We had a great time doing yard work, going for bike rides, playing at the park, listening to conference, going to Lowes and having the annual Easter egg roll. Its weekends like this that make you realize what a blessing families are.




We went over to a dirt hill by our house to roll our eggs down the hill. Its a family tradition that my family was introduced to when I was a teenager. We had a great time. This is not the best family picture, it does not help that my eyes are closed and we are all about to be blown away. We are learning that it is SUPER windy here in the Spring time!



I think over the weekend we went to Lowes everyday. Its so close and has everything we need for the house projects, plus lawn mowers for the kids to ride on and best of the all 'race cars'. Sabrinna and Tanner love riding in the race cars. They are so cute!!



Steve built me a garden box to plant some vegetables in. We have terrible soil so nothing will grow unless you have tons of compost and other things to help the soil. Anyways, the kids have been a big help in getting it all put together and ready to plant.

We had a wonderful weekend together. We created a lot of great memories!!!
