Spring break

Playing at parks, playing at Toys R Us and the theaters, going to the cemetary (where we did find some family names - I remember 2 Lydias, one was a Stacey and one was a Turner; but I don't think we brought any new info. to family history), family sleepovers in the family room on the air mattress, and a sing along at the library made up a lot of our spring break. Cliffton didn't care to get involved much at the sing along and Violet wanted to climb up the steps to the stage which we were explicitly told NOT to do. :) I think they really liked London Bridge. It was the first time they'd ever played/sung it. And of course, "if you're happy and you know it", and, "the wheels on the bus. "

Oh yes, and our first drive into the city (minus the kiddos). That was um, fun. We got to the temple on the 21st of April after being in the car for some 2 hours but could only stay a very short while. I was able to do some temple work for Stacey relatives (awesome!) but Richard could not because there weren't enough people working at the moment. It was good simply to be there for a short while. He talked with a man who was serving a mission there with his wife and this man had gone through law school and was telling Richard about some of his experiences. We then watched the kids of the Liza family whose eldest daughter, Alida, had watched our 2 kids and her brother and sister while we went to the temple. Alida is a great babysitter and she was able to go to the temple with her parents that night. Stefano and Gianella had fun at our house and Stefano let Cliffie play some games with him on his wii.
