Spring Break 2025

 We never travel for Spring Break, but we usually manage to fill it with several exciting activities. 

The first weekend of Spring Break, Matt and Samuel attended Trail Life's Count It All Joy campout. The trailmen completed a simulated mission to rescue missionaries. It was an exhausting weekend, since after the training, the mission began at dark on Saturday night. After all, you can't rescue missionaries in the daylight. 

Sam had an incredible weekend. He couldn't stop talking about it for days afterward. Matt was exhausted and cold, ha!





Matt and Samuel napped for a few hours when they got home on Sunday, so they could be rested for our visitors who arrived that evening, the Flamings! We always look forward to their Spring Break visit. 

The girls played so well together. 

They visited from Sunday-Tuesday of Spring Break and it was filled with board games, Jackbox, learning new video games, eating, chatting, jumping on the trampoline, and relaxing. We never left the house, and soaked up every minute we could be together. 



The goodbyes on Tuesday night were so hard. There's just never enough time! Thankfully, before they left, we scheduled our next visit which is only a couple of months away. 



Thursday of Spring Break was birthday party day. Katherine went with Kyla and friends to Urban Air and out to lunch afterward. She had the time of her life with her little best friends. 





That same afternoon, Elisabeth attended Grace's 11th birthday party. She had a blast catching up with all her friends during Spring Break. 

We had an unexpected free day on Friday, so I took the kids to the Gathering Place and Discovery Lab. Elisabeth got to be a volunteer for a funny, little magic show. 







The kids split up into teams and played hide and seek, and Sam and Elisabeth hid in this same place forever! Katherine and Nathan walked past them so many times and could never find them. It was hilarious. I can't believe they were so patient to wait so long. 

The rest of Spring Break weekend we spent with the Evetts who came up for a quick weekend visit. Spring Break 2025 was a good one!
