We traded clothes!

Wyatt and Hallee thought they were so funny when they traded clothes. 
We have been loving the warm weather.  We enjoyed a Saturday at the park.
I was impressed with Wyatt's Ninja Turtle drawing.
We love when Tiff and her kids come over to play.
Caitlyn was thrilled when I made her take a few test shots so we could decide how we wanted to do her hair for her 12-year-old pictures!
She sure is a beauty!
On Friday we went to the new comedy club in Provo with Tiff, Paul, Katie and Ben.  It was so fun. I laughed so hard, the comedians were hilarious.
A couple of weeks ago the bishopbric called Keith and I in and asked us if it would work for us to be a ma and pa for Pioneer Trek in July.  I never thought we would do that because we don't really leave the kids and I thought that would be too stressful and Keith doesn't have much time off work, but I felt good about it as soon as they asked.  I have been trying to plan a trip for Keith and I over Spring Break.  Nothing was working out, we really wanted to go to New York, but that ended up being too expensive and I looked into a couple of other things and we finally decided to bag it after stressing about finding someone to stay with the kids.  When they asked us to go on trek, I knew that this was our trip. It will still be stressful to leave the kids, but my parents said they can come stay there and the kids are really excited about that.
We are both a little worried about being ready physically so we have been trying to exercise more.  I'm able to go to the gym a few times a week, but Keith's work has been so crazy that he hasn't been able to go.  On Saturday we took the kids and went on a five mile walk.  It was a gorgeous day.  We all love the Provo Parkway.  The kids were great sports about it.  Hallee got in the stroller for a while, but the boys rode five miles on their scooters and didn't complain. Caitlyn was at Mel's house.  Keith and I both felt good after the walk, so that was encouraging.  I'm worried about my heels, my plantar fascitis is pretty bad.  I'm hoping I can get it in control before we go.
We stopped for a minute and let the kids climb their favorite tree.  We also stopped halfway and ate a snack and let the kids play hide-and-seek for a while.  It was a great way to spend a beautiful Spring day.
