Spring Break

Was Spring Break really almost 2 months ago? Yes, it was. However, our Spring Break pictures are better late that never. For Spring Break, we really didn't have anything planned. So I decided to take the boys to Mesa. I asked them what they wanted to do when we got there. They all wanted to go swimming. Caeson wanted to ride on an escalator. They wanted to play with their cousins. Some wanted to go to Chuck E Cheese. Ryan wanted to go out to eat. So, we did a little bit of everything. The first day, we went to Superstition Springs Mall and rode the escalator. I am sure we looked quite funny. Me and 5 boys riding up and down the escalator several times. Caeson thought it was so fun. Oh and the good part was, the ride was free. Then we went out to the area where the waterfall was. I took there picture standing shortest to tallest. The threw pennies in the water. And when Maddux decided to pee in the fountain, it was time to go. Later, that afternoon we met my brothers and sister and their families, and my mom and dad, at Freestone Park. The boys all had a good time playing at the park, riding bikes, skateboarding down a hill, feeding the ducks. However, Maddux was so hungry he wouldn't feed the ducks the crackers, he ate them. After several hours there, we all went to Red Robin to eat. It was yummy.

The next day, we got up and went swimming at the hotel. The boys love to swim and had so much fun. We are already looking forward the this summer, when we can swim a lot. At 11:00 am, we went to Chuck E Cheese. My brothers and their families came too. We ate and played and talked. It was a lot of fun. After Chuck E Cheese we started to head home.

We stayed home for a couple of days to get some stuff done. Then on Saturday, we went to Globe for one more day of fun before Spring Break was over. Ryan wanted my mom to make donuts and embroider his name on his golf wind breaker. Tevin wanted my mom to play cards with him. Maddux wanted cookies. Parker and Caeson wanted to play and eat. My Mom was running ragged to meet everyones needs. And she got it all done. She is amazing and very patient.

Here are a few pictures from Spring Break. They are backwards. Starting with the donuts working their way to the fountain at the mall.

Ryan and his yummy donuts! They were really good.

Maddux rolling out his donut. Look at his tounge it is sticking out.

Vern, Syl and Ryan waiting for our food at Red Robin. Syl is so cute.


Feeding the ducks at Freestone Park. I have a picture of Maddux eating his cracker because he was so hungry, instead of feeding them to the ducks. But it wouldn't fit on here.
