Spring Break - the rest of it....

So, we started Spring Break off in Payson, because Haley's sweet teacher invited the whole class to her reception down there.  I think Haley may be the only one from the class that actually attended.  Haley was loving all of it.  Peter and Caleb went to the Payson temple for 45 minutes of it.  But the rest of the time, Haley's big brothers were patient and supportive of staying there until the very end.  Yup, we watched them dance, eat the cake, do the bouquet, and leave with everyone cheering.  Haley loved it all!  Her brothers, were not excited about the long drive home. :)
After the Provo City Center Temple these kids needed to unwind, just some fun.  Well, I thought it would be a good idea to take them to a brand new pool and play.  Unfortunately, the rest of humanity at Provo felt the same way.  That swimming pool was so crowded!!! OH MY!  Caleb was so burnt out from the temple that he did not even swim.  He just read a book.  But the other kids had a lot of fun at the pool.   It was just what they needed!
 Saturday, last day of Spring Break and we ended it with a WIN!  Caleb and Peter started it off by going to the Jordan River Temple to help with shoe coverings.  Then C, W and H all had soccer games.  After some lunch, dinner with Steve and Jonny we all headed to the Real game.  Yes, we got wet.  Yes, we got home late.  But oh my, it was so much fun!  SO MUCH!  Each of the kids had on field opportunities.  P and W were able to see themselves on the big board.  Caleb (in the photo above, not seen because of the flags) had the cool chance to carry one of the Dream Flags out on the field while they had the team come out and do the National Anthem.  It was raining the entire time, but they had so much fun down there.
 Then, my little Haley?  She was a member of the Dream Team!!  She was so excited!  Not only that, she got to walk on with Justen Gald!  Oh my, so lucky.  Only thing better would have been to be with Rimando.  While watching them battle it out to finally take home the win Haley said, "I think I have a  new favorite player (Glad)." 
It was such a fun night!  We went prepared!  Ponchos, blankets, coats, snacks... it was awesome!
