Sarah turns 15!

 Our cute Sarah turned 15!  She is such a good kid.  We celebrated at home and then she had a friend swim party in the evening.  Sarah is patient, dependable, kind, smart, a good runner, and just a great friend to all of us.  We love her very much.  Happy Birthday Queen Bee!

Weekend trip to Los Angeles

Sarah had the opportunity to go with her school's music program on a trip to Disneyland this year.  The only problem was that part of the trip landed on Sunday.  We decided that one of us could drive down and pick her up on Saturday night and then they would drive home together.  After talking about it we decided it would be a lot more fun to go all together.  Dad had heard about the Space Shuttle Endeavor being in a museum in LA, so we looked it up and decided to put it on our itinerary.  Mom wanted to spend some time at the beach, so we put it on our itinerary.  It ended up being a really nice weekend together.  We felt like it was a blessing for making a good choice. There aren't any pictures of Sarah because she was in Disneyland and Disney studio's recording music.  She did drive home with us though and slept most of the drive home.  

Easter

We decorated our eggs the day before Easter.  There seemed to be a common Star Wars theme with a lot of the eggs.  

On Sunday the kids went to find their baskets hidden in the back yard. 

Then after Church we had a delicious dinner with the Missionaries.  We gave them both baskets with treats and new ties in them.  

Ski Trips

We had lots of fun Ski trips this winter! We love living so close to lots of ski resorts in the Sierras.   Dad took Alex this year for lessons and then Mom and Dad each went with Sarah.  Lily really wanted to go this year, but we just didn't have enough days off.  So, next year she will get to learn too!  Here are some pictures from all of our skiing adventures.
