Surprise Snow, Spring Break, Swimming, and Conference

I was hoping for the nice weather to last, but I forgot that that never happens in the spring when you live in Utah.  So instead we got a surprise snow with about enough snow to make everything white plus a little bit.  Oh well, at least we got to stay inside and clean.  We also went out on Conference Sunday when we also got some snow and built some snow stuff and Mark and Dad had a snowball fight.

Hooray for spring break!  This week consists of Planet Earth of Life in the mornings, a little bit of cleaning after that, and more playing following that.  We might even be going to the Hogle Zoo! 

On Saturday we went swimming, and I learned how to do a front flip off the diving board.  I also played monkey in the middle with Mark and Roo Roo (Rachel).  Neil got to try the water out for the first time and was a bit unsure and timid.  By the end he was able to splash the water without crying, and so mom held him and walked out into the four foot area to come be with us.

Conference was a blast!  I was able to get a bunch of great notes, and add another row to my afgan.  I also helped Roo Roo start her own with some really soft yarn that she has.  I think that my favorite talk was Elder Holland’s talk.  My favorite quote is “We should always try to hold Family Home Evening each week, even though bedlam reigns, inflicted by little bedlamites!” 

Hope you all have a wonderful week, and I will hopefully be posting a bunch of fun stuff we did over the break.
