April Fool's!


Happy April Fool's Day!! I absolutely love this day for some reason!! I think it is because I am the only one that plays jokes on people and I never get punked! But today Shelly came to school with me and we played one of the best punks on my students ever! We got them all pumped up for a pirate's scavenger hunt that we had prepared for them. They were so cute and excitedly running from clue to clue. Then at the end they found a note taped to a bunch of grocery sacks that said, "Good job you found your prize! Everyone can have a grocery sack! Happy April Fool's Day!" Haha Shelly and I were honestly dying we were laughing so hard because their faces were priceless!! Everyone was grabbing a bag and anxiously searching through it in hopes there might be something in the bags. Some kids were gathering up as much bags as they could and they were really excited about it! But the best was the kid that came over to us with total disgust and said, "What the CRAP!?!" Which just made us lose it more. They soon started laughing with us once I told them I really did bring them a treat for their prize but I just wanted to trick them for a minute. So it wasn't completely mean but it was seriously so funny!

I hope you all go out and trick some people before the best day ever is over!!!

SPRING BREAK!

Over spring break we went to California. We had so much fun! The only down fall was that we had to drive but luckily I got to experience all of the things Jake said I missed by flying… like that amazingly huge thermometer, and, and, and that’s about it! So hopefully I won’t have to drive again for a while since I experienced that. We were able to go to the LA temple on Thursday. It was such a gorgeous temple and really fun to see the different murals. By the time we got out the session it was getting late so we went to the closest beach we could find which was Santa Monica. It was not that great of weather and a rent a cop even made fun of us in our swimming suits. But to us it was fun to just sit on the beach and play paddleball. Friday was one of my favorite days because we went down to Newport and Huntington Beach. This has to be one of my favorite spots in the world! We went to get a famous donut from Newport and ate it on the pier. Then we went over to Huntington to shop and hang out on the beach. It was such a blast!! That night we went to Hollywood to see the stars and eat dinner. Jared’s brother, Jeff wanted Thai so we wanted to check out a few places to see where we wanted to eat. But at the first restaurant there was a cute boy that literally chased us down as we were entering another Thai restaurant he then escorted us back to his restaurant. It was so funny it totally made our night!
Saturday was so much fun because we got to go to Disneyland!!! It was way busy but we kept running from fast pass to fast pass so we never had to wait in line that long. We were able to go on all of our favorite rides and
eat the best food ever! I seriously love Disneyland and I am so glad we got to go!!
