Ben's Birthday was March 12th, and our anniversary (6 years!) was the 14th. We usually make a big deal of the anniversary so this year I was determined to make a bigger deal of his birthday. So in the morning Ben came down to a decorated house, 
a candle in his grapefruit, (I know a little lame but he's been on a diet and usually doesn't even eat breakfast, but he's lost 20+ pounds!)
and presents! He got a Life Jacket. That's what he wanted, I have no idea why. I think in hopes of having many adventures on other peoples boats this summer.
That night we headed down to St. George for a little get away. We had a great drive down, the kids slept most of the way and we listened to Dave Ramsey.
Friday we all slept in a little and my sweet Aunt Kay, whom we were staying with, made us a great breakfast. We then went swimming and went shopping later in the afternoon. A few weeks before this Ben had mentioned that he's always wanted an Ice Cream Cake, so as my Aunt and I were out we stopped at Cold Stone and brought home this...
It was delicious! Ben was totally surprised.
Saturday we decided to go to the Washington City pool and it was super fun!
Garett was pretty indifferent to his first swimming adventures. Not crying but not happy and splashing.
Grace absolutely loved it and we had a great time relaxing in the warm water, and playing outside in the sun.
After nap time we decided to head out and enjoy the weather. We just drove around a little and ended up by the Temple. We pointed it out to Grace and she declared that she wanted to go in, so we headed into the visitor center. As soon as we walked in she said, "That is a Big Big Jesus!"
She was pretty much in Awe.
Then we went out to the Temple grounds. I think this is such a beautiful Temple! Grace even smiled nicely and let me take her picture.
Then she had to try.
We had a great trip and enjoyed the warm weather and just spending time together!

lol, I love the last pic :)
Ben is looking so good! Way to go! I just finished the Dave Ramsay book. It's going to be tough, but we're going to try our version of it too (we're not selling our car though!) :).
