Spring break

As you can tell from this picture Ethan is trying to hide.



This past weekend Gonzalo had to go to Salt Lake City to work for a couple of days. Since the kids were on spring break, we decided to join him. This way we could spend time with Gonzalo while he works. So Sunday morning we headed off to Utah. It was a painful drive, there is a whole lot of nothing to see while driving through Wyoming. The kids however did great. We packed lots of snacks and movies to keep them busy. We also had a two hour delay due to a terrible accident that had occured early that morning with a diesel truck. While sitting in the car for an hour and a half we pasted the time by playing games and making each other laugh. I'm not sure that was a good idea since most of us had to use the restroom. Little Ethan was the only one who could successfully go to the restroom while we were parked on the road without anyone seeing. The rest of us just had to hold it.

The first day we were there we went to Temple square. This was our second time to Temple square as a family. The kids enjoy going, they love to see the Temple and visit the visitors center. We also went to see the Joseph Smith movie. The kids loved it so much last time that we went to see it again. Marissa had brought her friend Nicole from church who had not yet seen the movie.

That evening Gonzalo the kids and I took a drive through Murray, Utah. We were looking for one of our favorite places to eat (Sweet Tomatoes). While driving we pasted Murray High School. If anyone has been watching American Idol you know that David Archuleta is from Murray, Utah. He has become our favorite, plus our little Marissa has a slight crush on him. I told her we need to come back after dinner and take a picture of her next to the school sign that has David Archuleta's name on it. She declined stating she was to embarrassed.

The next day we joined our friends from Aurora,CO that were also in Utah for a day at BYU. We were able to tour the campus and enjoy a nice lunch with friends.

All in all we had a great time in Utah and like joining Daddy on his business trips.
