Our first April zoo visit

Checking out the daddy lions.

Finally got to climb on the elephant statue.
Adeline was too nervous to get on the trunk ha ha.
Evelyn liked pushing the stroller. This is the first time in a LONG time I just brought a single stroller. We did fairly well. Is it possibly time to retire the double stroller after 13 years?

Pretending the rocks are moving.

Climbing the rhino. Another first in a year.
Hugging otter friend.



"cleaning" the polar bears with the water dripping from their hands.

Seeing the gecko!
 

Easter 2021, and we get Who Who back from the Moab hotel!

Doing a little mini Easter egg hunt that morning.
Being silly.


Everyone loved the candy!
Doing conference bingo sheets from the Primary.
Long story, we "left" who who in the hotel in Moab. We didn't realize it until the next night in Price. Due to a TON of phone calls and investigation and a trip to the post office and some money, we waited for him to be returned to us. It was SO SO SO sad for a couple of days, but then Adeline realized he would be coming and we just had to be patient.

When she got him back, it was so sweet. "I love you so much who who!"



Working on our name.
Dancing around.
She missed her Easter preschool activity, so Miss Jennifer had a fun little Easter sack for her. She LOVED it!

The second half of Spring Break we spent in Idaho

Since we had SUCH a long spring break (week and a half, which was TOO long!) I decided last minute to go up to Idaho for a few days. It was good. We went swimming at Colette's.

Sadee has a CNA class and so she tested out her skills on the girls.
Adeline was so brave to get her blood pressure taken. I hope that is the case when she goes to Dr. Cox next time!



And we went to a fun outdoor park, but for the most part, just hung out at Grandma and Grandpa's. house.
 

Arches National Park-Sand Dune Arch and Sand Hill

The last hike we did in Arches was Sand Dune Arch. Of course, this little hill on the outside of the park the kids had to climb.

Look almost everyone is smiling!


More arch climbing once we got to the sand dune part.

The boys climbed CLEAR up on these ridges. It kind of made me nervous.

I had heard so many things about "Sand Hill" which is a massive sand hill right across the street from the Arches entrance. But, it had rained a bit before so the sand wasn't as smooth. But the kids still had a lot of fun climbing up. Even Adeline climbed up the entire hill.

The pictures don't do it justice, but it was high.
We had a fun time! Then it was on to Price to stay for the night in a cheaper hotel room before heading home on Sunday.
