Spring Break??

Well...Spring Break came, and unfortunately it is on its way out. And sadly, I did not accomplish anything on my to do list...We started out the break by spending a few days at Jacob's parents. One of Jacob's cousins just got back from his mission, so we went to spend some time with him. On Sunday afternoon, the March Madness brackets were announced, and I had a great time watching Jacob freak out because he didn't think Utah State was going to get in. It game down the the two slots that they might be able to take, and Jacob was pacing the room as nervous as can be. When they finally announced Utah State Jacob jumped on his parent's bed and started screaming! It was so funny! His sister was upstairs taking a nap until she heard the screaming. She thought Jacob was dying because he was screaming so loudly.
Monday night we went to Jacob's brother's house so I could get my hair done. While we were there, my brother-in-law put the two boys into the bath, and left them in there. It was probably about a half an hour later when it was realized that the water was still running. So Jacob ran in to shut the water off, and sure enough it had spilled over the side, and had almost reached the carpet. The kids were up to their necks in water, but they were as happy as could be. Jacob asked Dace why he did tell anyone the tub was full. Dace's response? "Jacob, it's full." And Kale decided to help the water out of the tub by filling up a bucket, and dumping it on Jacob's feet. Sooo funny!
On Tuesday we went to spend some time with my parents. Jacob and I got enlisted to help my mom rearrange the basement. That was...well....it was interesting to say the least. And I was so sad when we ran out of time...NOT... That night we went to one of Jacob's (my brother) basketball games. That was pretty hilarious. Church ball is very special. On Wednesday my dad wanted to take us shooting. And I learned that I really stink at shooting a moving target. Give me a .22 and a stationary target and I will kill it, but give me a shotgun and some clays, and you will have a great waste of money. Oh well, at least my dad and Jacob did a good job....
Thursday morning we came back to Logan, with the intention of doing some spring cleaning and some homework. Instead I decided it was time to use the last of our Bed, Bath, and Beyond gift cards. Much more entertaining. And I got the cutest shower curtain ever. I have been begging Jacob for months to let me get a new shower curtain, but there was no way he would let me pay fifty dollars for one, even if it was with a gift card. But this shower curtain was on clearance plus I had a five percent off coupon, so I paid twenty five bucks less for it than if I had bought it three months ago. And it matches my bathroom so perfectly. I love it. And its probably kind of sad how excited I am every time I see it.
This weekend I was so excited to discover that they put the nets back up at the tennis courts. Jacob has been trying to teach me, and maybe one day I will get good. But for now its just fun to goof around and play! Plus its great exercise. I love it, and now that they weather is nice, we plan on playing a lot more. We can also go on walks without freezing our bums off, which is so nice. I am really starting to love it here in Logan, which is something I didn't think would ever happen. But its so great, and its such a beautiful time of year. The grass is starting to green up and the flowers are starting to come up. I LOVE IT!! Yay spring!!
So I guess our spring break wasn't really that relaxing, but it was fun. We are used to staying busy, so it wasn't a big deal to us. When we find down time we really don't know what to do with ourselves. One day (maybe) our lives will slow down a little and we will get some time to do nothing.
