Spring Break started off with us trying to get rid of the last traces of that pesky eye virus. By Tuesday, we were sick of being inside and ready to play! Daddy and Abbie spent time on the trampoline (Abbie's favorite thing to do now).
Kyle came home Wednesday morning from a short visit with his mom. He was stuck inside part of the time too so he was feeling ready to play as well. We headed out to the Springs Preserve to play with George, Lulu and Ruby.

Thursday morning, we flew to Reno for a short visit. We arrived late afternoon and spent the rest of the day getting settled. Friday morning we headed out for a visit to Virginia City. We took a mine tour and visited the Mark Twain Museum.

Friday night we went over to our friends Katie & Martin's house for dinner. We hung out while the kids played in their super fun backyard.

On Saturday, we met Katie & Caedon at the movies for Horton Hears a Who. It was Abbie's first movie theater experience and all and all a good one. Later that afternoon, we hunted for eggs in Grandma's backyard, colored with chalk on her patio and decorated rice krispie treats before meeting Katie & Caedon at the park for a picnic dinner and some playtime.

Easter morning we had a little bit of time to play and eat breakfast with Aunt Susie before we headed to the airport for the flight home. Reno was a lot of fun. We probably packed too much in as we were all exhausted on the trip home and Grandma's house looked like a tornado hit when we left.

About an hour after we landed, it was off to Grandma & Grandpa Marz's house for Easter dinner. Everyone was there including Aunt Kara & Uncle Allan and Dona Johnson, a family friend, and Cassie, Sam's roomate.

Dinner was yummy and we all got wonderful treats from easter bunnies Grandma & Grandpa. Kyle, Abbie and Daisy were all happy to find that the Easter Bunny didn't forget them even while we were in Reno. They each had a basket of gifts and treats he left them at our house.
It was wonderfully fun but super exhausting. We are all mega-pooped today but enjoying our fun memories.

Reno looks like a fun trip. Glad you guys made it to Easter dinner after such a busy weekend!
Great pics, too.
Looks like the family had a lot of fun. Those Rice Krispies looked especially yummy, they are a favorite in this house. Saige is a sidewalk chalk fan herself.
Great pics ! Wow what a busy time you had. LOVE Abbie's hat and outfit ! Emily still loves sidewalk drawing. Me too actually.
Thanks for posting !
glad you guys could make it home... its never the same without your entire clan!
Glad you guys had such a fun weekend. We noticed that Daisy had 2 fingers in her mouth in the last pic with Kyle. Cooper does that too, I think he likes feeling his teeth. We love Abbie's cute grin, and her hat is awesome!
