Spring Break?

Randy and Jared both had spring break the same week, even though they go to different schools, so Blake, Brian and Courtney took some time off work and we all headed to Garden City Utah, more commonly known as Bear Lake on Monday, March 21st.  We stayed at the Worldmark resort.  Brian and Celia and Randy and Courtney fixed some really good meals.  I appreciated having them do a lot of the cooking!  Thanks guys!  On Tuesday, Brian, Celia, Randy and Jared went out into the fresh powder.  It had snowed all night and there was plenty of it!

Brian in deep!

Just stopped in the powder.

Randy pointing something out.

Jared resting.

Even saw a lot of deer.

While they were out in the mountains, Blake and Courtney and I were entertained by Maden!

He sat on Grandpa's lap and sang songs and played with Grandpa's comb and pen.

He loves my camera and would come running as soon as he saw it to put the lens cap back on.

He thinks my reading glasses are funny.

He had a grand time opening and shutting the cupboard doors.

Wednesday, just the men went out on the machines.  It was a bright sunny day, so Celia dressed Maden up in his snow clothes and we went outside.

He wasn't sure what to think of the mittens. 

He really wasn't too happy about it all for a little while.  He didn't even appreciate that someone had made a snowman for us.

Finally we took him to the sidewalk, and he decided it was kind of fun.

Celia wanted him to pose for a picture, he didn't like that idea too much, but it's a really good picture of Celia!

Brian, Celia and Maden left on Thursday morning, so the rest of us went out on the sleds. It was snowing and fogged in the mountains, so we couldn't see very good and didn't stay very long.  We went back into Garden City and had pizza at a little restaurant.

This picture was actually taken on Tuesday. we didn't take any on Thursday.  But Jared had a great time in all the snow!
