Yay for Spring!


My favorite season is finally here. Spring is such a fun season. The weather, the smells, the birds, I just love everything about it. Alexa, Walter, and I have been spending a lot of time enjoying the nice weather. Doing things like playing catch, swimming, going to the park etc.

Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Winston came up to Salt Lake with Grandma Zentner and Aunt Mary on Easter weekend. We all went to the Red Butte Garden, it felt so good to get out and enjoy the beautiful flowers and plants. Alexa really enjoyed smelling the "pretty flowers" whenever she got the chance. We also set up Alexa's pool for the first time this season. she had a blast playing in it and I can't wait until be have the opportunity to set it up again. Unfortunately, Walter and I have not been able to set up the "white trash hot-tub" yet, but hopefully soon. for those of you who don't know just how cool we are, the white trash hot-tub it Alexa's pool blown up but we connect the hose to the washer and fill the pool up with hot water. it is really fun. I am pretty sure our neighbors think we are crazy, but no, they are wrong, we are cool!

Anywhoo, I am really looking forward to the fun things we are going to do this Spring and Summer. I am going to make it a goal to do things this year like hiking, camping, fishing, maybe even tubing down Provo river etc. Last weekend, Walter, Alexa, and I decided to go for a drive on the upper East end of the valley to look at the big houses, and we ended up venturing through a canyon that neither of us have been to. It had lots of different hiking trails and camping sites and picnic areas. we drove through the canyon for a ways and looked at a couple of hiking trails, I hope we can maybe check a few of them out this year. Both Walter and I have been itching to start up some hiking with our dad's and since we don't have the convenience of them being close, we are going to have to go at it alone.

Well, I hope that everyone is enjoying their Spring weather as much as we are. Love ya lots and hope we see ya'll soon.
