Spring Break, and Ali is BORED!!!

Ali was counting down the days till she had 9 consecutive days off!! She was so excited. One thing she loves to do is plan out her day. Which also ends up being my day- but who runs the show around here right!! To all my sisters and friends who laugh at the endless hours I devote to the entertainment of my child I am first to say I am a sucker for my kids!! I love playing with them and if Ali has a plan, I work it into my day-
I get endless grief for it, but it is worth it!!
So as the week approached I told her she could plan ONE activity that she wanted to do a day and One that I wanted to do. That way we both got Our time!!!
See we have a great arrangement!!
So as the week began Ali planned it out as follows:
Monday- Play outside and play tennis and have a picnic lunch-- Done!!
Tuesday - Go swimming at the Legacy Center with her cousins--
We haven't gone swimming as much since our Crypto
incident here a year ago, so I decided it was okay to go,
and get Cam swimming also. My sister Brooke and her kids
came, and we had a great time!!
I kept getting so nervous everytime Cam would
dunk his mouth in the water, or suck on his fingers-
I didn't enjoy crypto, and I am positive he wouldn't either!

He Loved the WAter!!
The plan continues.......
Wednesday- A play day at Kangaroo Zoo with all the cousins--- Done!


We love Kangaroo Zoo, we don't love the kids that pee on the floor
and the parents who act like nothing happened--URGH!!
or the kids with slimy runny noses goobering all over the bouncy toys!
I think I have a germ phobia!
Fro had the day off so he got to come play also,
It was so fun the have him there to play with these guys!


I am no longer the only brunette in the family!!
Where did all the blondes go???
My sisters Brooke and Brittany

Then Thursday we were told about the BYU museum
and the exhibit they have right now. It is the guy
who makes the I- Spy books. They have a display where you can
go see how they are made and play I-Spy with the kids!
I was a little Skeptical if the kids would like it but they really did!


Pictures were forbidden,
but I snuck this before I knew the
No Photo rules!

My cute mom and dad then took us all out
to lunch at the Mall!! That many kids is always
chaotic, but they are always so great to come with us!!
Friday- Was the day we spent at home because Ali
caught something somewhere at one of our many
germ infested adventures, so we spent the day chillin at home
and watching movies!! The theme of the week after getting home
was "Mom I am bored!! I can't believe after all we did, she could
even have the energy to think she was bored!! If this is anything how
the summer is going to be, I am doomed!! It was a fun week though!

You are a fun mom. You need to teach me a thing or two.
