What's been um...going on

    So I haven't wrote in here for a while which you probably already know. I didn't plan to write in it for a while either. But, Mom is wanting me to write in this and so here I am writing it out. Last time I wrote was Christmas...yeah...it has been a loooong time.

    Spring Break happened and I did fun things everyday! Monday we had Grandma's easter egg hunt and the candy was gone shortly after. Tuesday Mom took Emma and I down to City Creek. We shopped and shopped and shopped until...we found the Disney store! I was so excited! Then....my dreams were crushed! Just kidding it wasn't THAT dramatic. It just was full of all these little kids toys and SMALL pajamas and SMALL swimsuits. It was so sad. My life soon turned happy though because we found the game store! Wow. That was all I could say. There were probably hundreds of games and toys!! I found so many wonderful things that I fell in love with. Then Mom found these things called Bucky Balls. Bucky Balls are small magnet balls that stick together. They are so addicting to play with (witness: Tara)!!! Emma later found Jenga and so I bought that too. And what I found? Silly Putty. Which Mom said I couldn't buy even though I was buying it with my own money! (Later I got Silly Putty in my Easter Basket.)

    After City Creek Mom dropped me off at Tara's house. We played and played and played all day long! At night I slept in Lily's room...on the floor. Not like there is anything wrong with that but it wasn't that comfortable. And I went to bed at 8 which isn't what I'm quite used to...it's usually 11 or 11:30. I woke up in the middle of the night around 1 am, and I had a pounding headache which made me stay up until around 3 am. I didn't want to walk over to Tara's bedroom because...well...that would be awkward. So I called Tara. I could HERE her phone ringing yet she didn't. So I went to bed and slept well for the rest of that night. Morning came and we played some more and had loads and loads of fun!!


    Then we decided to do a craft. We made these things called Boogie Monsters. They are little pipe cleaner Monsters that look like they are dancing! Mine was blue, Lily's was orange, Jackson's was green, and Tara's was red. They were so so cute and a lot of fun to make. We then decided to hide them around the house to see what Tim would say when he got home.

I hid mine on a shelf sort of thing above the door...so did Jackson.

  Lily hid her Boogie Monster on the stairs.

  Tara hid her Boogie Monster on a shelf by the candles.

    It was really funny walking around that house where almost wherever you looked there would be a Boogie Monster. After that we played games outside and inside, we danced and tickled and laughed and had so much fun!!!

   Until I decided to play the piano. I was trying to remember one of the songs I was going to play at my next recital (which turned out great) and I didn't quite have it memorized at the time so I did as much as I could. I gave up I couldn't remember parts of so I start playing that chopstick version of Heart and Soul. It's a really catchy tune and soon Lily came in. She told how she had always wanted to play that song on the piano, so I thought that I could teach her! (It IS a really easy song to play) and she practiced the whole night and was so excited to play it in front of her Dad.





                                                             Afterwards, Beth tried.


   So we had such a good time playing after all! It is so cute watching Lily and Beth play the piano and Jackson run around saying, "I'm going to work...come and catch and me!!" I love these kiddos so much!

   I come into the kitchen after I finish playing the piano and find Lily writing squiggles down a piece of paper. I look at her and than say, "Lily what are doing?" She than tells me that she is writing down what she has to do everyday.  She told me that everyday she has to brush her teeth, get dressed, play with Beth...than she let out a HUGE sigh and said, "It's VERY exhausting!" As she turns the paper over and it's completely filled with squiggles and dots.


   Beth is another whole cute story. She laughs and the strangest times and is nothing more than smiles and joy. Although she cries and begs, she is such a doll! Anybody that is with Beth for more than one second, can understand that she is so cute and happy...unless it's her bed time. Silly silly little things that silly little girl does.





   Lily, Jackson, and Beth what a load of fun to be with overnight. They all have done some cheeky things here and there but so have I so...it's okay. That was the main highlight of my week they are so darling and so cute to be with. Tara, I love your kids!! (don't worry I love you too)

   Now that is really all the pictures I have because after I was at Tara's house my camera died and I just barely recharged it! So just use your imagination for the rest of my week. I stayed at Tara's house until Wednesday night at 6:30pm. So than Thursday I babysat and Friday I babysat oh and Saturday I babysat some more. Yes I HAD a lot of money now I only have 45 dollars just joking that's a lot compared to negative 5 but I used to have 80 dollars. Okay now I am just bragging. Any who, Spring break was a lot of fun and I really liked it. Oh! Also, Saturday before I babysat Mom had her easter egg hunt and Amy helped Emma and I hide the eggs little did she know that the oldest was 3. No worries we found them eventually. Well that's all for now! I will write again probably in another um 6 weeks (you know the usual.)
