Spring Break (for my Family!)

This past week my family came out to UT for their spring break! Although it was a bummer their break coincided with finals for us BYU kids, we managed to have an awesome time. I'm so grateful they make the drive to come visit us so often. And we are so excited to be joining them in sunny California very soon! Here are some snapshots of their visit:

^We started off by visiting Trafalga for a game night! Brie wasn't big enough to drive it by herself, but she still wanted a picture^

^Speedy Petey^



^Andrew was a speed demon, and won the race against Clark and I!^





^It was a close race, but David ended up winning!^ 



^The Smyth cousins met up with us in time for glow-in-the-dark mini golf!^


^The next day we met up for the BYU Baseball game! Even though we lost the first game of the series against Loyola, we had a super fun time!^



^Then on Thursday we dyed Easter Eggs at Kiwanis Park!^








^We were pretty match-y!^

^Three of my favorite eggs!^


^On Saturday we went to the Thanksgiving Point Tulip festival. It's my favorite annual event in Utah!^


^These were my favorite tulips!^


^Forget me not!^



^Brie was pretty excited to see the tulips!^

^Don't these look like they were watercolored?!^





^We were all very entertained by the koi pond too!^

^The boys were posing as Greek heroes^






^Inside the Secret Garden!^

^There was a collection of bronze statues called "The Living Christ"^



^Titled: Because of Love^



^After the gardens we made our way to the Thanksgiving Point Dinosaur Museum. Parasaurolophus are my favorite type of dino!^

^The boys had a ton of fun playing with the toy dinosaurs!^



^Brie's favorite dinosaur^



^David HATES sharks.. So he wasn't too happy to see this big guy!^


^Easter Sunday! We went to the midway ward for church and then to the Peterson's house for our egg hunts and Easter dinner!^

^We all got Nerf guns! You better believe we had a HUGE nerf war. It was the best!^

^Clark and I meant to match... Emy must have got the memo too!^





^Pro Easter Egg hunter... he only goes after the most difficult-to-find eggs!^




^Searching high and low!^






^Too cool for Easter candy^


^And can I just brag about how handsome my little brothers are?!^

^I mean check these boys out!^


^Yummy cupcakes for dessert!^

^That concludes our Easter celebrations! So fun!^

^And yesterday we met up with Brit & Spencer, and Ash for a roomie reunion dinner! I'm going to miss these guys so much. Hopefully Ash will be in NY at the same time as us!^

^I love these girls so much! They are the sweetest!^

^Oh, and another bragging moment, Clark got a BIG check from BYU for being such a smartie-pants. His team won first place in a state-wide private equity competition!!!^
