Zip Lining with the cool kids.

Last year we had spring break in London, Paris and Senlisse, France.  This year it was stay at home and enjoy an early spring.  We are hoping we don't get a late frost in the valley as things are blossomed out already.  In the foothills there is still some snow, as you can see.

There is my Go-pro of the zip line on you tube:  Zip Idaho

Meg at the Boise Temple Friday Mar 20, 2015

We had a family gathering for a long weekend.  Anna brought Charlie and Iva;  Laura and Kate came by themselves so it was lots of fun and not so many to worry about.

Morgan's Birthday on St. Patrick's Day 17 Mar 2015 Iva and Meg visit.

Morgan and Levi still get into watching for leprechauns, they come and turn our milk green for her birthday.  Morgan had her 8th birthday with cake and ice cream.  We had family dinner at Applebee's on Tuesday and then the cake at home on Wednesday, so she strung it out just a little.
Rainbow cake with coins inside.

Anna was home for birthday cake too.

Back to the 80's- March 14, 2015

Our ward had a dinner go back to the 80's, we had a live band made up of members from our stake and everyone had a good time.  My job was to make a photo booth, so I made a foam "polaroid" frame.

Cindy dressed as we did in the 80's,
much like now.

Back to Arizona with a side serving of California

The Boise winter has been typical, we have had some temperature inversions and fog.  This makes for some bad air and dreary moods and zero enthusiasm.  So we were glad we had two weeks planned for a trip to see Anna's family and also to go over to Indio in the Coachella Valley to see my brother Jim and aunt Becky. The flight from Boise is an easy two hours direct.  The weather was good, not too hot and not to cold.

Iva and Charlie are a lot of fun.  We enjoyed the park playgrounds, an aquarium, and swimming at the apartment complex pool.




The aquarium kept the kids looking.
