Our Weekend

Thursday was Ethan's fifth birthday! He was so excited to open his presents in the morning and continually thanked me all day long for his presents.
Later that night we went to Planet Play to have pizza and play games. He was in heaven and was especially excited about the stuffed animal snake that he got to bring home. I was also informed throughout the day that five year olds are:
*Braver because they are five.
*Can run WAY faster...proceeded by him running from our front door to the back of the house as fast as he could.
*Don't cry because they aren't babies. (I'm still waiting for this one to become true)
And I'm sure throughout the next week there will be more things that five year olds can do.
Friday Ethan and I went to Kindergarten Orientation. It's weird to think that he's going to be gone to school every day. He had fun and got to visit different places through out the school. After that Kurt and I headed to Desert Star. It was another great play. I've been impressed with the two this year so far and most of all I love knowing that we have a date night with just the two of us.
Then yesterday with the record breaking 80 degrees we decided to go take the boat out and make sure everything was running as it should. It was a beautiful day and I was SO tempted to get in but the water was FREEZING and I just couldn't do it. Everything went good despite Kurt not hooking one of the pipes back up and letting the engine almost fill with water. So after pulling off of the lake a few times to change oil and fix the pipe, we were good. The boat was awesome and now I can't wait to get out on the water.
Later that night the boys all went to Priesthood and us girls decided to make a wreath we had seen on Pintrest! It turned out pretty cute.
And today we've enjoyed more great sessions from conference (while playing with marbles)! I love hearing from the leaders of our church. They are so inspiring. I feel so blessed to have the Gospel in my life.

:( That is all.
Just kidding! That was an eventful weekend; and though I'm totally sad I couldn't make a cute Easter wreath with all the girls, I'm so glad you could all get together!
