Spring Break Contd., Choir, & Easter Eggs!!

**WARNING**
**Long post- lots of pictures and videos**
Since my mom is in Florida I'm trying to keep on the events that are happening here so she can show my grandparents while she is there.


Spring Break
Day Four: We wanted to get out and do something every day of Spring break. We didn't have much money so we decided to take Cayden to the playground at the mall since it was cold outside. Then we found a coupon for a free picture with the Easter Bunny at the mall. We got to the mall and found where the Easter Bunny was. They wanted $20 before we could get our free picture so we decided to just play on the playground and forget about the Easter bunny. Cayden had a blast! The slide was his favorite.


After the mall we headed out to Ideations because Jared had received a call from his boss saying they had a job and needed his help with it. So we drove downtown and Jared talked with everyone about the job and they told him that he would start the following week. Jared is now back to work, at least for a month, and we are praying that they get more jobs so he can continue working. What a wonderful blessing!!!!

Day Five: Just as we were heading out to go to the store we got a phone call from my brother. We had forgotten that we had to take him to a chemo appointment. So our last day of spring break wasn't all that exciting but we made the best of it. We ran around the hospital, took a walk outside, and played in the elevator. The good thing is is that Chris is doing very well on the chemo and feeling good.



As we were heading to bed on the last day of spring break we got a phone call from my little brother Matt. He told me he was coming over to our place. I said ok, thinking I was tired and going to bed and then he said he'd gotten his mission call. He came over and we called everyone and he began to read.....He will be serving in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. He reports to the MTC May13th. I am excited to be able to take him to the MTC. He is very excited to serve the Lord.

Ok.... CHOIR

The other night we had the opportunity to attend Tim's choir concert. He is in the 2 top choirs in his school. The first choir he performed in is the Jazz choir. This first video is of the boys in the Jazz Choir. They did the arrangement and everything. (the video is a little dark but he is the 4th in from the left, black shirt and red tie)




This next video is Timmy's Madrigals Choir. He had a solo and sung AMAZINGLY well but you can't hear him all that well in the video(with the drums and no mic it made it difficult). It was awesome though and I was so proud of him.



Easter Eggs

Last night we weren't sure if we were going to be able to dye Easter eggs or not. On Friday Cayden started throwing up, had a few bouts of diarrhea, and a really high fever. We got him home and all he wanted to do was cuddle. By bed time the Motrin kicked in and he was happy and ready for bed. He slept through the night but woke up only wanting to be held and had a fever of 103. Thanks to some advice from my dad we took him to the doctor.(Thankfully our dr. is open in the morning on Sat.) The doctor said he had a double ear infection and the stomach flu. Where he got either of those I'll never know but we got a prescription for him and by 6:00 last night he was almost back to his perky little self. So before we left my dad's house we decided to dye some eggs.

Ok That's it for now!!!

~LOVE TO ALL~

Nice summary Katie!

Great job Tim. Looks like a fun night.

Glad Cayden was feeling better so he could have some egg dying fun!
