Spring Break! & Kennedy's Birthday....(where have 10 years gone?)

Last week was spring break & we pretty much hung out at home, but that was kind of nice! We too one day & took the kids to downtown SLC to see the sights. (One of Clayton's obsessions is New York City...he is dying to go, so we figured that Salt Lake would be our best bet.)He & Claire loved driving through downtown & staring up at all the huge buildings & guessing how much bigger they must be in NYC!
We drove by where they do the Chanel 2 news, & then headed to the Daughters of Pioneer Museum(?)because they have John Rowe Moyle's wooden leg there, & he is our relative...they thought it was cool. They didn't allow photographs,so bummer. So then we headed over to the Clark Planetarium to see some Imax 3D movies. I took the little ones to "Under the Water" & Bill took the older kids to the "Hubble Space...something" they were amazing!
We went to the JSB for lunch & enjoyed riding trax...it was a fun day!
Then Holy Cow! Kennedy turned 10 years old! She got a cruiser bike & it is so cute! & she went swimming with her friends & we loved having the family over for oatmeal cake! YUM!

time for an update, I guess

I don't know where the time goes! I don't know what I've been doing either...
at our house we having the big countdown to the end of school!(& Easter, & the day off of school on Friday, & the list goes on) My kids love to know "how many sleeps until..."
Connor is still doing very well in school, all "A's" & he is working on his merit badges for scouts. He has earned a lot of his "boring" merit badges already, so he is looking forward to the "fun" ones!
Kennedy is growing up quickly & having some growing pains on the way. It is hard to watch sometimes, when as an Adult these things are so simple, but she will learn.
Clayton is learning how to deal with his anxiety/Asbergers,& so are we. The advice is great for the whole family & we are all learning so much! It's still to raw to talk about with too many people, so we don't, but it is great to learn about how our actions can be a huge impact on others & how to remove ourselves emotionally, & how that can be the best sometimes.
Claire is wanting to play with friends ALL the time, but here's the deal, she will not go to their house ever! & that gets old for me & her friends. & she wants to play with girls that are Clayton's age. We only have one or two girls Claire's age & we never seem to get them together. She is also having fun in Preschool. & we are excited for Kindergarten!!!
