Spring Break

Yeah! Spring break is finally here! We didn't have any great big plans or anything but we did decide to take off to a hotel overnight and spend some time OUT with the kids. At the hotel, the kids swam all day and evening. Then back at the hotel, they watched Disney channel until they fell asleep. Now, I know how unexciting that sounds...watching Disney. But my kids loved it because we don't watch much T.V. at all at home. Nor do we have cable.

This first picture is Jaden and Maddie at the movie, "Monsters vs. Aliens". It was in 3D and the kids thought that was awesome.



This picture is of me and Maddie right after we got finished doing "Dance Revolution".


Jaden bowling...



Maddie bowling... She won all of us!




So recently I took some family photo's of my neice, Havelah and her family...and they turned out great! So that gave Maddie and Jaden the idea to go out and do a photo shoot of each other. These are a couple of shots that they came out with. Impressive!!!!

Yay for the blogging!!! Spring break is great. Sometimes the best thing to do is relax and not try to fit a billion things into a week. The children are beautiful. How is Colton doing? We need to come and visit again sometime and see how the house is coming along. Love ya, oh yeah, this is Joel, not Kally.

Your Spring break looks like you guys had a lot of fun. I'd like to see Monsters and Aliens too.

I loved the pictures of Jaden and Maddie. They are very talented. I wish they could teach me to take pictures.

I'm so glad you guys got to get out of the house and away from everyday life for a little bit! Sometimes you don't need to take a big trip to relax and get rejuvinated - these little overnighters are wonderful! And Maddie and Jaden look like little hotties - they both have some talent! Love you and miss you!
