On Monday, I taught piano lessons, got the oil changed in the van, had the tires rotated in the van, took the kids to lunch, weeded part of the garden, and played around with the kids. We were going to Denver on Wednesday and the kids spent the day finishing packing their stuff. It was cute because they packed their clothes on Sunday morning but they waited until Monday to pack toys.
On Tuesday, I took the kids to a place called Kids Discovery Academy. It's a huge room filled with all kinds of scenes from Southern Utah where they kids play dress up. For instance: there was a Tuacahn stage with dress up clothes where they could act out plays; there was a Stahli Farm setting where they could pull fake vegetables out of the ground, ride a toy horse, gather fake eggs, and dress up like a farmer; there was a service station where they could pretend to change the oil in a car or change a flat tire; there was a magnetic engineering wall where they could make a marble run with all kinds of pipes; and lots of other things. It was a lot of fun for the kids and they had a bunch of kids to play with. Ethan was, by far, the oldest kid there so all the younger kids played sword fight with him. He loved it! It was 5 on 1 at one point and a little kid turned and said, "Boy, he is so good. I hope I can be that good someday!" It was cute. We stayed there for quite a while and then it was time to get back home.
The rest of the day was spent cleaning/packing/playing with friends. It was a good start to Spring Break.
