Family Fun

So I have completely enjoyed my spring break! I loved being home with Tessa for the week and am looking forward to the summer time. To start my break off my mom and I had a garage sale. While setting out signs, I was able to get my last piece of bedroom furniture; my mirror. I found the mirror at another garage sale. I paid $5 for it and it looks great! That night Mark and I went to the Temple and dinner. It was nice to go out by ourselves and we need to be better about attending the Temple.
Mark worked really hard this week (9-5) training kids to lifeguard but we were able to have the evenings and Saturday to be together. We did a picnic at Freestone Park on Saturday and fed the ducks. It was a beautiful day! I got some fun pictures of Tessa. She is getting so big and has found her voice. She goes around the house yelling mama but I don't know if she's wanting me or just yelling. She is doing really well with her eating and for the most part is on a good schedule.
After the park, Mark made an above ground sprinkler system for our small backyard. He wanted the grass to be nice so that Tessa could play in it. He cut down all the weeds/grass and has new grass seed and fertilizer to put down. But Mark said that if he was going to do the grass he wanted to do the sprinkler system. I said go for it but keep it under $50. The sprinkler system and cutting the grass took about 2 hours but looks good and works well.
Spring break was fun and relaxing. I am ready to get the school year over so I can be home again with Tessa during the day but not quite ready to go back to work. Isn't that how is always goes?
