Utah and Sophie's Birthday

I got to go and visit Heather and her family during Spring Break. I had a lot of fun but the time went by to quick. I arrived on the 16th and stayed until Easter Sunday. Sophie's birthday was on Monday the 17th which was also St. Patrick's Day. Last year when I was there we were at a park and it was pretty warm outside. This year it was cold and it snowed. Heather wrote on her blog that we took Sophie and the younger ones to Pei Wei for lunch. Before that we went to Toy's R Us and Sophie picked out a kitchen for her birthday. I got her a pretty brown sweater that I bought in AZ and then I let her pick out some food things for her new kitchen. When Heath got home we went to an indoor swimming pool. It was to cold for me but I still got in. Ethan is still swimming from last summer. After that we went home to eat Sophie's birthday cake.
We took Tyson and Ethan to see "Horton Sees A Who." Cute movie for you to take your kids too. They didn't get to do as much with me because they were in school through Wednesday. Saturday night we went out to eat at Outback and then we went to Temple Square. It was beautiful, of course. We watched a movie on families and walked around. We then went to eat dessert at an ice cream place. Huge servings but yummy! I'm glad I ordered a child's sunday. On Easter morning before I left to go home we cooked a yummy breakfast and then hid their easter eggs and played with the bubble blowers I got them. I always enjoy my visits with my grandkids. The only problem is they all want my to cuddle with them at night and that can take a long time. So this trip they were assigned a night. That way I can spend some quality time visiting with them. They also like my stories. Probably because I act them out and make them up. (In other words I make a fool out of myself!) The hard part is when I visit another time and they want the same story that I made up. It's hard to remember, but I try. This year it wa s Cowboy Billy!!! After I got home we went over to Ronnie and Aleia's for Easter dinner. It was fun. Jaylee and Faith and ther cousin Chance found tons of Easter eggs. They had a blast. Faith had a hard time when I was going to leave. She had told me on the phone when I called that she had been crying for me. What can I say, they love me!
