Spring Break

For spring break we didn't really plan anything - just a quick visit to Thatcher to see Paul's family. And the exciting part was going to Duncan where my brother in law and sister in law run a dairy farm. This is always our kids favorite part - forget Disneyland - let's go see all the animals! Unfortunately Joel contracted pink-eye about 2 days before we left and looks a little miserable in the picture below. It was one of the worst cases of pink eye I have ever seen but thankfully Paul hooked him up with some good eye drops and within 24 hours he looked so much better.


He is still a cutie anyway!



I love this picture of Joel looking up to Jarom



The girls insisted I take a photo of their dogs dressed in
Christmas scarves and hats



At Duncan in the back of Aunt Lucia's truck. This is
one of the things my kids love about the farm - riding in
the back of a truck with no seat belts.



This huge stack of cotton seed makes for some fun times-
very dusty-but fun



See how happy Joel is that he can ride in the truck, on the
farm without being strapped into a carseat



Lacey making her way up the mountain of seed




Lacey & Jessica riding in the pack of Aunt Lu's truck




Joel was thrilled by the baby cows




One of the big cats had some kittens and Jarom carried this
one around for about an hour - he was quite attached to it



Jessica finally got over her initial hesitation to hold the kittens
and posed for this picture
