THAT Day

I am so glad THAT day is over!
Thursday was crazy from beginning to end.
Blake forgot his swim stuff,
I was asked to do a group for church that day.
Swim meet for Brayden & Blake,
Benson's Baseball try-outs, where
Bradley pulled the fire alarm.
Evacuated the baseball try-outs
and the swim meet.
Did they have to bring ALL the cavalry?
Ambulances, fire trucks, police officers...
(I think we have a higher percentage of officers here)
While the officer was talking to Bradley - Bryan disappeared into the church to set up a computer projector for me
Benson thought he had been forgotten and left behind.
(Fix that broken heart)
Benson to soccer,
Brayden & Blake from swimming
"Mom, we had to stand in the cold for 30 minutes cuz some little kid pulled the fire alarm!"
Brayden to cover Benson's game & treats
Blake to baseball try-outs
Turn the boys over to Bryan
(no, you can't babysit your own kids)
Me home to change,
Stress about getting an Internet connection to work through the cinder block walls in the church
But it worked. Thank Heavens. (Really.)
Done. I'm done.

Spring Break

Yea! The first day of spring break...
The Wyoming Way
8 inches of snow on the driveway.
(Oops, I mean on the gravel - hopefully cement in a month - or when the snow melts - July?)
Brayden shoveling the "boardwalk"
The boys thought it was great

We have our own sledding hill

Blake & Benson love it

Benson

(It will be a pain trying to make it not such a hill when it comes time to landscape)

Brett knows what that button does!

(Bryan knows that he knows too, the brake is on and it is in park)
After the plowing, the real fun comes
Our toboggan team!
General Conference was awesome,
I especially loved President Monson's Sunday morning talk
(with the buckets of tears and all)
and President Uchdorf's talk.
