Spring Break




This is Katie and Lindsey. So, here's the low down on what we have been doing over spring break. Matt got to go to Park City with his friends to go skiing. So we had a "girls fest". First we got checked out school early on Friday (because Mom is so nice) and we came home and ate Ellie's easter candy from school and watched August Rush. We do not really recommend this movie. It wasn't that good. Friday night we watched Martian Child. It was good. We liked it. Then, Saturday night we went to the drive in. We saw Horton Hears a Who, we LOVED this one. The drive in was FUN... we also saw Spiderwick. It was NOT so good. I (Katie) read the books -- the movie was TOTALLY different.. We had carmel popcorn, m&ms and sour patch kids... Uncle Rich especially liked those...
Then Sunday was church... we played cards (Skip Bo) at night with MORE carmel popcorn (I guess Mom and Dad are NOT doing the diet anymore?!)
Monday day we watched Nancy Drew (very good). Monday night me,(Lindsey) gave the FHE lesson.. we did scripture mastery scripture chase, it was fun.. I think the winner was... MOM! :)
Tuesday Spencer and Sam came over and played in the morning. We played lots of board games. They are cute! In the afternoon we watched Dan in Real Life (it was just okay, more for grown ups we think), then we went to the park and went running due to all of this lazy movie watching. Then we also watched Pride and Predjudice--we really liked this movie. It was very good.
Wednesday we went to piano lessons, Target, Old Navy and Cafe Rio. We also went running at the park with Maggie. This day we watched Disney's Hercules (we had never seen it before)-- we REALLY LOVED Hercules... we recommend this one. We also watched ENCHANTED -- a great GIRLY movie! :)
Thursday we watched No Reservations(This one was just okay, we did scrapbooking and played Rollercoaster Tycoon and then we watched Mr. Magoriums wonder emporium (this was EXCELLENT)... then we babysat Sam and Spencer... it was fun (other than Spence biting me (Lindsey) in the armpit.)
Friday we colored Easter Eggs with our friends the Jones and got our pictures taken by the amazing Sis. Jones... then we had egg salad sandwiches for lunch, and then we dyed more eggs, and tonight we are going BOWLING! yipee!
Tomorrow night we get to go to a play! YEA! and then Sunday it's Easter! We get to have an Easter Egg hunt and then we are going to have our Easter dinner with Rich, Heidi,Spencer, Sam, Warren, Nikki and Jordan...
It has been a BLAST this week. We have watched TOO many movies, we are all burned out on movies, but it WAS relaxing.
Sunday night we will have the SUNDAY NIGHT BLUES as we call it in our family... But it was fun while it lasted!!!!

Well, here we are on Sunday at 4 p.m. and we still haven't dyed eggs, had the hunt or cleaned up from the last vistages of the Easter Bunny. We're way behind schedule. You guys are on the pelota.

What a fun week! Thanks for the movie guide! We had a great time with Matt. We are hoping the math homework wasn't too much and that the extra day skiing was worth it!
