Spring break...
Spring break has come and gone too fast! We were able to go to Vegas for 3 days and stay at The Mandalay Bay again (we went 2 years ago and stayed there and my kids LOVED it). It has such a fun pool for the kids. This year we rented chairs right in front of the pool so the kids could play and we stayed and lounged and watched. The weather was chilly but when the wind died down it warmed up a bit. Marc and Taylor got a little, um... burnt and Bryce and I got a pretty good tan. It was a fast trip (we wanted to stay longer but there were no open rooms later in that week)and we had a BLAST!!! And we ended up seeing people from our ward there too. Such a small world when you are Mormon!! So yummy food was eaten, miles were walked on the strip, and I was spoiled because my husband bought me a Louis Vuitton purse (I have wanted one for many years). He is soooo good to me! My kids love going to Vegas and are asking when we can go back again.
School will be out in about 24 days, and I will be the mother of a 3rd grader and a (gulp) 7th grade Jr. High girl. I am not going to lie... my heart is breaking a tiny bit! Taylor has changed so fast since turning 12. Contacts have replaced her cute, innocent looking glasses, she now wears a shoe size bigger than I do and I actually put on a pair of her jeans that fit (tightly) me. She is still playing basketball and makes me so proud daily.
Bryce is a TOTAL crack up still. He has been blessed with the gift of making friends everywhere! He LOVES our neighbors (Brent and Sonya) that live next to us and sits with them every Sunday in church (we have adopted them as grandparents)and colors and practices writing with Sonya. He will be taking a reading camp for the month of June at his school and is really excited to do it! He will be turning 8 in about 2 weeks and will be getting Baptized June 12th. Then Cub Scouts! Life is fun for a soon to be 8 year old boy!
I am still hitting the gym hard and daily and just loving being a mom. We are trying to have another baby so if it is meant to be it will happen. I am truely blessed in my life with all that I have been given and I LOVE my family SOOOOOOOOO much!!!!! I also teach the 12 year olds in Sunday School and am soooo humbled by their strength and how GOOD they are. THEY are such strong exmples to me.
Marc is BUSY with the work season starting up. He has already landed a few big jobs and is almost daily landing more work. We feel so blessed and I am so proud of what a hard worker Marc is. We know how lucky we are to be so busy when others are are struggling to find work.
I hope you all are well and life is good for you also... Love, Sarah
