This is the shortened version of our vacation/time off school. This year we spent Easter in Utah. It was cold and snowed that morning. The kids still had good time. It's so fun watching the wee little ones running around, Tyler and Hayden had a blast. Ashley left the easy ones for the boys to find and she went for the harder had higher ones. Brooklynn didn't do much hunting she didn't really even want to get up and see what was in her basket. It was sad to see her so sick. Later on that day we took her to the doctor and found out she had the true flew and a really bad ear infection. She started feeling better the day we left to come home.
We came home to a big surprise (for the kids) Grandma and Grandma Dribnak were at our house from Minn. along with Kody, Bethany, Gavin and Zoe from Calif. The kids were so excited. They had a trip to the war hawk air museum (papa's favorite place). They got to go to the store and pick out a BIG treat/toy. Swimming at the hotel pool and a basketball game. What a great spring break.
The snow pictures are from the Andrews cabin in Garden Valley. The cabin was huge! We joined some of our friends up there for some fun in the snow, hot pools, and games. Thanks Carter and Tendra for a great weekend!

So have you been wondering where we've been? We're still here, just really busy. Soccer started back up for one and ..... ahhh.....ahhh... I can't think of the other stuff right now but I feel like I have no time to get things done. My house at this moment is crazy dirty. My bed still isn't made (don't tell anyone but I didn't make it yesterday either). Visit soon! I'll be back blogging!

The Canyonlands Half Marathon
Last year after the race, I decided to show my girls how far 13.1 miles actually was. We left the Boise Town Square Mall and started driving the direction of home. It turns out we live almost exactly 13.1 miles from the mall. Big mistake! That stuck in the back of my mind and I chickened out this year and did the 5 mile with my mom. We had a great time! It was fun to run with my dad across the finish line and cheer him along. Way to go everyone! Who's in for next year?
This is us waiting for the rest of the 5 milers to be bussed up the canyon.
Ready, set, go!

It's My Brirthday!
"I'm 6 today!" Brooklynn has been glowing all day just like the candle on her cheesecake. She could not wait any longer for this day to come. She's had a count down since Christmas. These last couple of days when ever I would be talking to somebody, she would quietly (just loud enough for the other person to hear) talk about her party or that it's her birthday tomorrow. At school she got to hear her name over the intercom and bring treats for her class. Dinner was at The Cheesecake Factory (yummy!!) and a slumber party with her cousins this weekend. So we'll be celebrating for a couple more days.
