The Melanchuks are off for 2 weeks of Spring Break.

We enjoyed seeing them several times!

Kathryn and Daniel liked the planks!

Amelia still likes my Little People sets!

Everyone likes technology!

 First day of Spring Break for Utah!

Sophie gave new meaning to the term Spring "Break"

She broke her wrist!

Spring Break! Part 2 Easter!

I hope everyone had a good Easter!

Look what the McClellans woke up to on Easter morning!

Same spot, later that day.

Crazy Kansas weather!

It was a good day to remember loved ones we will meet again!

Hallelujah!

Spring Break! Part 1

It's the time of year for Spring Break!  

Our families have it spread over 3 weeks.

Here is some of what has been happening:

Sam built this book shelf:

Peter looks healthy and happy!

McClellan girls on the way to Lindsborg, Kansas, a Swedish town!

On the way back they stopped at the castle on top of this Kansas "mountain!"

 Courtney and Elizabeth did some service for the United Way!

Heidi told them to take a picture of themselves in the matching shirts.  I guess you have to be specific if you want the faces too!

 A trip to the Nifty Nut House!

 Barnes and Noble: Courtney is reading Mo Willems books to Camille!

 Sarah and Camille at Urban Air!

 A trip to Michaels where each girl got to pick some craft items! 

Pretending to be at the beach! 

 Scavenger Hunt at Target

And finally a movie!

(To be continued...)

10 More For Fairy Tale Town!

We had 10 grandkids at Fairy Tale Town.

Here are my 10 favorite photos we took while we were there!  

This is everybody's favorite drinking fountain!
Who wouldn't want to stick their head in a hippo's mouth?

I love it when cousins are friends!

Everything has been repainted and cleaned up!

The birthday boy, Michael, had so much fun!  It was hard to catch him standing still!

Lots of kids having fun on an old tractor!

Lily spent a LOT of time sitting in the pumpkin coach!

Lots of fun was had on this bouncing "log!"

(These two count as one picture--hey, it's my blog!)

Four boys pretending to be pirates.  They were very intense about this!

Grandpa had a buddy!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Fairy Tale Town: Fun With Ten Grandkids!

It's a tradition!  In the Melanchuk family you get to go to Fairy Tale Town for a birthday celebration when you turn 5!

For a week we had lots of rain with a window of no rain early Saturday morning.  It was cold and cloudy and looked threatening so we had the park pretty much to ourselves.

Here is the birthday boy: Michael!

Hannah!

Nathaniel!

Joshua!

Lily!

Jacob!

Kathryn!

 Amelia!

 David!

 And Daniel!

(Daniel was always trying to hide from my camera!)
