Bahamas

We're baaaaccck! We got in late last night and I must admit, not to happy to be home :) Having the boys wake up at 5:30 this morning didn't help matters. We had such a great time I don't even know where to begin. I think instead of telling a million little stories, I'll just put little captions above the pictures. If you want more details, give us a call, we'll fill you in! WARNING: Lots and lots of pictures!

Mid March update

We are getting ready to drive to SLC to board our flight to the Bahamas! Woo-hoo :) But first I thought I'd leave you with a few pics of the things that have happened so far this month with the Gale crew.
Dave was the emcee for the Drill Review. For those of you not familiar with all things small town, the local high school dance team basically did all their dances again for the community. Dave did awesome and was his usual high energy funny self.

The boys got, what has now turned into annual, beach hair. They both did great and love it. Bring on the sunshine dude.

We (Steph, Grammy and I) took the 4 oldest boys to Thomas yesterday in SLC. We flew down, watched a lame-ass show (sorry for the language, but seriously, lame-ass), then flew back to Vernal. The boys loved it so I guess that's all that counts.

Yesterday Grant decided to demolish the chocolate cake I had on the counter. *sigh* 'Nuff said.I am so ready for a vacation! I'll do a post about Atlantis when we return. Stay tuned :)

Yummy

The Sonora Grill. So we haven't actually eaten at this restaurant yet, but I'm really excited to try it. And not just because it's friends who own it, but I've heard really good things about it. If you're in the Ogden area, or just want a little drive, go check it out.

Lincoln's latest obsession is the vacuum. He loves to vacuum the living room. I made him a deal that he can vacuum anytime he wants (as long as Grant's not sleeping), but he has to pick up all the toys first and make sure nothing is on the floor. Talk about a win-win situation for me! So now not only does he pick up all his toys at least once a day, but my living room gets vacuumed without me having to do anything but sit at the computer and blog about it. Sweet.

(Lincoln hates wearing clothes when we're in the house. It's a fight just to get him to keep his undies on. Oh the joys of a 3 year old.)
