Finally, some fresh air.

This past weekend, my parents, my kids, my bro. Nate and his fam, we all went to Red Cliffs and Sand Hollow for the day. It was so nice to fianlly be outside in good weather. Its been nice off and on in Cedar but not like down south. We didnt even need jackets. We took the kids for a hike, ate lunch, let them play in the water, then we ended our day in Sand Hollow for some fishing. The kids had such a good time. My kids have been locked up in doors for so long, Im not quite sure they knew how to act at first. It will be good to get our backyard done this summer so they will have some freedom and not fill like convicts locked up inside. Quin wasnt sure about the water. I dont blame her, it was ice cold. She just played in the sand instead. It didnt seem to bother the older three. By the time we left, their fingers and feet were bright red. They had a good time though. Im hopinf we can do it more often. Any mom knows that getting to that point isnt so much fun and is what holds me back from doing more activities. Getting them dressed, packing a bag, finding them something to take to eat, getting them in and out of the car, etc... Its tiring just thinking about it. I like to think its worth it though once your out and doing your thing. You just have to have the main objective in the back of your mind to get you from point A to point Z without completely losing you mind. Anyways, we had a good time as I previously mentioned. Hope to do it more!

I just read all of your posts to catch up...glad you updated! Your kids are so big...I can't believe how much hair Quin has, and I love the story about Nixon pushing a chair around the kitchen in the middle of the night...at least he's not screaming & hitting like Breckon does!!! Anyway, keep the pictures coming...we miss you guys!
