Spring Break #2 - Aaron's Birthday and Baptism

On to spring break #2. Aaron's 8th birthday was on the 7th. He had to go to school for the first time on his birthday - normally it's during spring break. The girls were out of school though.

Decorating Aaron's cake. Aaron's first day at cub scouts on Tuesday. A thrilled boy!

On Thursday of that week, Paul decided to take the kids up for one last ski day. The snow was still quite amazing, with fresh powder when they got there. The ski season was ending on the 13th, so how could they pass up on the opportunity?

Aaron had his birthday party on Friday. We ended up with 8, 8 and 9 year olds, at our house for a party and a sleepover. I know, we're not all that smart!

Then, on Saturday afternoon, Aaron was baptized. We had a nice turnout and a very nice program. Grandpa Leavens and Brianna gave talks and Brie and Carly sang a special song. It was quite the eventful weekend!
Us outside the Stake Center after the baptism. A beautiful day! Mt. Pilchuck in the background.

As you can see - a very busy week. We breathed a sigh of relief when it was all over and we had a peaceful Sunday.
