Some people are given a spring break but with our 4-day school week, we just had to make our own. Ruby and Dalanie caught a ride with Brent to Grandma's early Thursday morning (since he practically lives in Burley these days.) Hudson stayed behind for school and music with the promise of joining everyone ASAP. We were right on schedule when the oil pressure light on my car went off. It was total dejavu. But this time we were unable to make it to Burley before the car started sounding like a diesel engine. We pulled to the side of the freeway, made some phone calls, and waited for our rescue.
Killing time with this sweet baby.
An hour later and here came Wepco with his handy car dolly to tow us in. Once we were at Mom and Dad's, it was business as usual- having fun.
Delsie kept Grandpa's rainbow bugs company.
We all attacked the orchard and made lots of progress pruning. Of course, 4-wheelers and chainsaws were a big draw for the kids.
We breaked for lunch. Nothing says springtime like a good ol' weenie roast. We got to enjoy the fire pit for our first time. The thick cement sides of the pit make help cook up some good dogs and perfectly golden marshmallows. The sun melted the chocolate on the graham crackers and we enjoyed some of the best s'mores ever.
When the work was done, the kids got to have an egg hunt. We had to come home, but the car stayed there.
