Apartment Living isn't All Bad

Don't get me wrong, I'm am SO anxious for our Utah house to sell so we can get into a house and get rid of one payment, however I am discovering that because we're not all that fond of being in our apartment, we get out a lot more as a family.

Over the weekend, Gabby and Alex went on their first Easter Egg Hunt of the season. Gabby scored big time, while Alex on the other hand would get so excited about finding the egg that he'd forget to pick it up before someone else beat him to the punch.

Still, the pickings were good. Unfortunately, candy has this weird tendency of disappearing in our house . . .

After the egg hunt (and between conference sessions), we put Gabby into training for an upcoming school race. She's pretty fast.

Following the run, and to ensure the kids would sleep real well, we rollerbladed.

Then back to the house to watch the second session of conference (I think we made a family record for most conference ever watched on a Saturday). During the broadcast, the kids and I decorated (and ate) sugar cookies in the hopes of taking them around to friends. Yeah. We'll see if they make it.

These were the lucky few that made it to the decorating stage. Lucky for them I'm off sugar today.

So while I am done with living in an apartment, I've got to admit that I'm learning how to spend more quality time with my kids and husband and that is what really matters.
