EaSTeR FuN!

Aaahhh, new discovery and so much fun! The night before Easter, Aunt Kristin called me up and said that her neighbor has a little car out in the yard for FREE! I went and got it! Doesn't get any better than FREE! The only catch: didn't have a charger. But, I brought it home anyway. Bryce ended up finding a cord that would work and well, it worked! We put it under a blanket while it charged, hoping the girls wouldn't find out about it until Easter morning, but...the little stinks...I caught them out of bed...IN it in our living room. Oh well, so much for surprises. They were all excited and that made it even worse to try and get them to bed.

Here is their first ride. Note: in this experience, if it is any indication of how it is going to be when they are 16, YIKES! They were all over the place, running into, over, and on things!

Driver switch. Savannah's turned into the dominate one and has to be in control...well, so it appears. She is the driver, yes! But she can't reach the pedal, so Saige pushes the pedal and changes it from forward to reverse. Hahaha, smart little cookie, that little Saige is! Sometimes, Saige will pull a fast one on Savy when they are stopped. She will put it in forward when I told them to go backwards, so Savy would be looking backwards while the car is going forwards! LOL, I need to get a picture or video of that! Its hilarious!
Mom decides to test the new wheels. All of me can't fit, but I made do the best I could!

Easter at Panka's!

The PERSON taking the picture isn't the greatest photographer (ahem, BRYCE) but it was all I had to work with!!!! Well anyway, while we ate dinner, Panka hid all the Grandkids' Easter Baskets. Then before he sent them out, he had a discussion with them about Jesus what the meaning of Easter is all about. Panka asked,

"What does it mean when Jesus was resurrected?"

Saige said, "Scottie is helping Jesus!"

Gotta love that kid!

Saige after she found hers. I was holding the video camera and video'd Savy, but I haven't figured out the new video camera to ge the movies on!

It was a good Easter. The kids had fun, it wasn't to over-whelming and I owe a lot of thanks to my sister-in-laws for organizing the whole thing for the kids! THANK YOU--Jennie, Em, Rach, and Michele!

Mexico Cruise

Well, we finally made it on a cruise! During spring break, we went on a cruise to the Mexican Riviera to Puerto Vallarta and Cabo San Lucas to celebrate our 10 Year Anniversary. It was fun!

A first glimpse of our stateroom with a veranda!

This is where I was most likely to find Bryce.

One of my favorite dinner nights, with our server, Pepe from Indonesia. All the servers are from Indonesia. Us.

This is where I spent a lot of my time, when Bryce was spending his time sleeping!

Sailing off into...well, the sunset is already gone!

A formal night at the best restaurante...mmmm, I had Filet Mignon, Bryce had crab legs...YUCK! Bryce's desert...on fire fueled by Brandy!

To our excusion destination....headed to the little town of Yulapa and a snorkling adventure.

Bryce, snorkling...I only stayed out for a few minutes...too merky!

The town of Yulapa! They just got electricity about 8 years ago!

Pipi's! Our favorite restaurant in Puerto Vallarta! They have the best flaming fajitas!

Pipi's from the outside.

Downtown Puerto Vallarta...on the boardwalk, searching for shoes! Yes, I did find them, I was too excited that I found them, I forgot to take pictures!

Morning from our balcony on the ship, Puerto Vallarta.

Lizards are bound to turn up...anywhere! Iguanas are all over and probably provided dinner for a family that night!

The coolest place to hang out while spending a day at the beach. This was a pool with a swim up bar right on the beach and anyone is welcome. Cool hotel, if we ever come here again, we will be staying here at the Crystal Hotel! Our ship is in the background.

Leaving Puerto Vallarta, on our way to Cabo San Lucas.

Dance Club...notice there are no people there...if there were, Bryce would feel weird! That night was supposed to be Dance to the 80's, I couldn't get him to go when all the people were supposed to be there! I had to make due with this!

Desert, we had to!

Funny, very funny! At the Marriage Game...19th hole???? Who woulda thought...inside joke!

Sailing into port at Cabo San Lucas. Loved the balcony!

This is the view we had from our room...all day long.

Going exploring. To find a beach. Find guacamole!

On our way to Lovers Beach. Our tour guide!

Arch at Lovers Beach. The waters were too crazy to actually get out, so we saw the backside too!

Found some musical entertainment while I was enjoying my guacamole!

Random pictures of one of the restaurants in the ship. Was very pretty.

Now, sailing off into the Sunset...on our way back home.

Little room guest we found in our room after dinner!

The morning approaching the San Diego Port.

On our way home...Beaver, UT...SNOW, really?
