Arizona, Easter, Logan

Hey everyone, there has been a lot going on around here and I thought I would catch everyone up. Me, my mom, and my kids went to Arizona to see my sister who lives down there. It was so much fun. The Arizona weather is amazing and perfect. We caught it just at the right time before it gets hotter than you know where. Anyway, it was great to see my sister and her family and fun to get away for a while.
Easter was great too. The kids loved the easter baskets, church was wonderful and dinner at my sisters was great too. I made rolls and they actually turned out this time. On Monday Steve was offered a job! It has been about 2 months now of applying and interviewing like crazy. The job is a great opportunity and really close to what he was doing before. We are very blessed and it will be great for life to get back to normal.
We decided since the job didn't start for a couple of weeks we would go on a little family vacation since Steve wasn't able to come to Arizona with us. We went to Logan for a couple of days and the kids loved it. We went to the little zoo, Cox Honey (You can see a beehive and learn how honey is made) the Cheese Factory, the Temple, and Aggie Creamery. Of course the best part for the kids was the swimming pool. The best part for Steve and I was that most of the things we did were totally free. It is great place to go get away for a while. The canyon was beautiful too, even though it snowed most of the time.

So here are some pictures of what has been going on with us, they are totally out of order because it wouldn't let me move them around. Anyway....you get the point.

All ready to swim! Remember how exciting this way when you were a kid?

We went to the Easter Pageant at the Mesa Temple. It was so good!

My sister has a pool in her backyard. Needless to say it was a daily thing even though the water was still cold!

On the way down there....they actually did pretty good for a 12 hour drive.

I was about to email you, but decided to check your blog first. Looks like you've been busy with having fun. That's good because I was feeling bad that Jaron & I hadn't found the time to come visit yet. Yea, a job!! Did you ever think you'd be so excited for your husband to be gone all day? Congratulations!
