For Spring Break we just did a staycation this year. We took off for one day and went snowboarding but for the most part we had fun just sticking close to home.
Saturday Night the girls kicked off their break with a Dance 4 dance off.
It was fun watching them. These three have so much fun together!Afterwards we went to a late night movie and watched Fantastical Beasts.
Sunday: We went to church and then had Lyman, Marilee, Duke, Adrianne, Isaac and Lindee over for a outdoor BBQ.
Monday: The girls enjoyed sleeping in and hanging out with friends while I worked. That night we had their friends over for a FHE movie night.
Tuesday: We headed out early in the morning to Brian Head and spent the day Snowboarding. We had such a blast. It was so much fun and the weather was perfect. It was warm enough that we just needed our snow pants and hoodies.
Getting on the lifts. It was a great time to go, there were hardly any lines.
Adam! This was Adam and I's first time snowboarding (We've skiied before). Our first run was horrible. It took us about 45 minutes to get to the bottom because we were constantly wiping out and then it would take forever to get back up. But on our second run it all clicked and we were able to find our groove. There's definitely a learning curve but once we found it the rest was history. We were able to continue making our runs with out any falls and making it down the slopes in just a few minutes.
It was exhausting and quite hard on the body. We would get to the bottom and just die for a few minutes.
Calli was in her happy place! She snowboards as often as she can. She loves the park with all the jumps and stunts. She was a good teacher and very patient with her beginner family.
Gentry was in heaven. She loved every minute of it. By the end of the day she was making run after run with zero falls. It was fun to watch her get more and more confident.
Sadie made it look so easy. She got up easily the first time and rarely fell. She was so fast too. I had a hard time keeping up with her.
"Hey, mom get us all dabbing on the lift!"
The three girls always jumped on together so Adam and I had a lift to ourselves.
We had a great time hanging out, chatting and just trying to keep up with the girls.
There were times we had the slopes to ourselves.
Halfway through our day Calli said we were ready to graduate from the bunny hills and she took us up Giant Steps. Such an amazing view.
We loved this hill. It wasn't too much harder just ALOT longer. We spent the rest of the day at Giant Steps.
Because this slope is so long the lift is High Speed. It gets you to the top in no time.

After snowboarding we drove past the cabin since this would be the last time Calli gets to see it before leaving.
Wednesday: The girls were so exhausted from snowboarding that they were quite happy to be able to sleep in the next day.
Thursday while the older girls were with friends, Gentry and I had a fun day together. We went shopping at the mall. She found some cute swimming suits for Easter. (Look at her poor face, her and Sadie got snow burned pretty bad)
That night we had a St. Patrick's all green dinner since I knew I wouldn't see them much Friday night which is when St. Patrick's Day was. Later Gentry went swimming with Weston and Shaylee.
Friday: After I got off work I took the girls to the BYU practice they were having at Dixie High School. It was hot and busy but still pretty fun.
Saturday: We worked in the yard and then went over to Issac's that night for Games. Overall, I think it was a pretty fun week. Anytime the girls don't have to go to school is good day.
