Here are some highlights from the 2nd week in April.
On Monday, April 8th, there was a solar eclipse. Here in Utah we were only saw a 50% totality, but it was still cool. The clouds were covering the sun most of the day, but thankfully it broke up, just in time to get covered by the moon. Steve, Hudson, and I looked at it for a minute, then Steve got in the car and drove up to the Elementary school so Carter could see it. Carter also got to see it during class time. Nyles was on a field trip for a BizTown event downtown, but they still got to see it as well.
The Solar Eclipse. Later Hudson wearing Steve's slides.
Later Hudson fell asleep on the way home picking up Nyles and Carter from school.
Kaitlyn and Nyles playing outside. Great quote.
On the train. SLC temple still in construction, though they just put the angel Moroni back on top!
At the Delta Center to watch the game! We got a free CrakerJack popcorn and drink.
We were WAY up top, right in front of the stairs. I was a little scared we'd fall, but thankfully we didn't ;) We were right underneath the American flag. The game was close, but they lost unfortunately. We left at half time, since it was a school night. Carter said he wants to go back again!
That same night Nyles went w/ the young men and played mini golf (another deacon Jace Brinkerhoff).
The moon was super cool as we got off the train.
Wednesday, Hudson had his preschool gym class.
Later, they went to the Aquarium for a little bit.
Our Tulips and peach tree and pear tree are blooming!
Hudson found a worm! More pretty Tulips and blossoms.
Thursday after school, Steve picked up Dave (since he had a procedure and wasn't supposed to drive), and then picked up the boys from school, and went fishing at Deer Creek.
They had a great time. Hudson loved watching the fish in the bucket.
They stopped to see Joann in Provo on their way back. She was just moved down to this facility this week to continue to help her w/ her recovery.
While they were gone, after work, I mowed the lawn, then took Piper for a walk.
Friday, Steve went and picked up more mulch. We decided to put a new layer of mulch over ALL the yard. Steve picked up 25 bags, then 75 bags, then another 17 bags! It was cheaper buying individual bags vs in bulk w/ a sale going on at Lowe's. Steve did the entire 105 feet retaining wall all by himself!
Friday evening we went over and helped clean the church (it was our week). Steve also did church lock up the whole week.
Saturday, we all cleaned inside the house, then went outside to finish laying the mulch and clean up the yard further. That afternoon Nyles went to a friend's birthday party, and Carter went and played at Colins's house.
Fresh mulch. We have more Tulips coming in up front.
We also planted a Hydrangea plant by the side of the porch as well. Pretty flowers!
Hudson helping us get a few things at Trader Joe's. He loves the little shopping carts there, and insisted on pushing it. The Hydrangea plant. Nyles helped Hudson put together a rocket Lego set.
The Hydrangea, more Tulips. Hudson checking out the flowers after church.
On our way over to have dinner w/ Diane and LuDean. Hudson fell asleep on our way over.
Hudson wearing a pair of Aunt Diane's glasses (silly kid). Giving Grandma LuDean a hug!
Great quotes.
