Spring Break

WE have been "STAY-CATIONING" the last week as the kids and I have both been off for Spring Break. We have been trying to have as much fun as we could here in town while spending as little as possible at the same time. I think we have done a pretty good job of it. Here is what we have done...
Monday-We went to jumping jacks with Tyler and Sam (it was free thanks to Dixie Direct).
Tuesday-We went to Fiesta Fun (free thanks to Report Cards)
Wednesday-We went out to eat at Chuck a Rama with Grandpa Leland (the kids ate free thanks to the summer reading program) The kids LOVE chuck a rama it is like their favorite.
Thursday-We went to the Washington Rec Center to swim (had to pay for this one-dang) and Tanner went to mow Grandpa and Grandma's lawn while Chloe went to the park with some friends.
Friday-This was our big day. First we went to Laser Mania with some friends(lots of coupons and discounts here but not completely free), then we went to Frostop with the same friends (more discounts), then while at Frostop the kids schemed up a sleepover. The girls, Chloe and Gentry, ended up at our house. While the boys, Tanner and Gage, went to the Brinkerhoffs house. I jokingly told Tami that she got the easier end of the deal because the boys are such low maintenance compared to the boys, however not so sure I was joking. HA The kids had lots of fun though and I think they were even a little dissapointed the next day when it came to an end.
Saturday-We just kind of hung. Landon had to go into work for a few hours when he got home we got some PANDA for lunch (used a coupon free lunch for the kids). Then Landon and Tanner went and helped do a little yard work for Grandpa Leland while Chloe and I went shopping with Grandma Tawny to Old Navy. We scored some really cute skirts (onces again used a coupon) and Grandma has even already taken Chloe's in so she can wear it to church without it falling off. After that Landon and my Dad took on the project of replacing the Slav Cylinder in Landon's Transmission this took them until after ten. While they were out in the garage slaving away the kids and I relaxed on the couch and watched a movie.
Sunday-nothing much to speak of yet, we all slept in until 9:00! A record at our house. We are still just lounging around until it's time for church which doesn't start until 2:00-lucky us Landon and I have to give the sacrament prayers today. After church my Dad, Mom, and Grandma are going to come over for dinner.
So that's our week in a nutshell!
