An E mail from Peru
Every Monday morning I go check my inbox even though I know he hasn't emailed quite yet...you never know. Today I was surprised to get an e mail from a sweet lady in Peru, it made me cry. I will post the Spanish in case you speak it and then Kevin helped me translate it for those who don't , like me!
So proud of my missionary! I know that in 4 months they will be missing him in Peru almost as much as we miss him here now.
Hermana buenos dias, soy la hermana Almendra del Barrio Campoy- Peru, en mi barrio esta su hijo el elder sheridan y medio su correo para poder escribirle y sabe es un joven bastante especial y muy divertido, la verdad es una bendicion tenerlo en nuestro barrio, trabaja duro en la obra de nuestro padre celestial, y por ello debo felicitarla ya que usted es la que educo y formo al joven que ahora es un instrumento en las manos de nuestro Dios.
Bueno hermana fue un gusto poder saludarla.
Que tenga un gran dia =)
Good morning sister, I am sister Almendra from the Campoy Ward-Peru District, your son Elder Sheridan is working in my ward. Through your e mail I am able to write to let you know that he is a very special and fun young man. The truth is that it is a blessing to have him in our ward. He works hard in the work of our Heavenly Father and for this I should congratulate you because it is you that taught him and formed him into the young man he is today as an instrument in God's hands.
Well sister it was a joy to be able to send this. Have a great day.

Happy Easter
Coloring eggs
You can tell Maddi isn't home, no Princess eggs!
Maddi on Easter morning at her apartment in her new Easter dress.
What says Easter more than a giant chocolate football????
Handsome boys
Wow, down to 2 easter baskets to find this morning!!! (We gave Maddi hers when we were in St. George.) It was a beautiful day to be with family, attend church and learn about and celebrate the resurrection, the real reason for Easter.
(watch the video!)
How grateful we should be for the Atonement of Jesus Christ! Happy Easter!!!
We are all on a chocolate high and everyone is ready to head back to school tomorrow. So sad Spring Break is over and done. Bring on Summer!!!!!

Spring Break
Safe!!!
Batting practice
Love this face!
Kevin trying to get Maddi out.
Thor on a scooter
Even with a hat on his hair looks better cut!
Kevin trying out the scooter.
This is what I get when I ask them all to smile!
Love this picture of Thomas!
Jacob peeking through the arch.
Thomas and Jacob doing their Titanic pose on the cliff. Ha ha
Maddi and Kevin hiding from the wind.
Just weird!
Cool pictures from the top of the Dixie cliff.
Thomas running down the sand dunes.
Look at Jacob, he looks like he can fly!
Cute Jake running down the sand dunes.
Jacob at the sand dunes.
Maddi at the sand dunes
Kevin and I at the sand dunes.
Sand Angel!!!
Planking on the sand.
They wrote Mitch's name in the sand. He will be in the picture next time!!!!!
Hiking up to Pioneer rock.
Posing on a cliff.
Oh no!! KEvin fell off. Good thing Maddi was there to save him!
At the start of our hike, when they were all still smiling.
The boys had spring break this week so we were excited to get out of the cold and head to sunshine and warmth in good old St. George this week an visit with Grandparents and Maddi.
We packed our bags and informed Mema and Grandpa that their spare bedrooms would be occupied for a few days and off we went. The first day I was seriously questioning the decision as it was just as cold and windy as it was at home. We went to the baseball park to get some practice in for Jake but the wind was brutal. We then decided to drive around a bit and ended up at the Dixie on the mountain. By then the wind had calmed a bit and we hiked around for a while.
The kids hadn't seen Hunger Games yet so Kevin, Maddi and Thomas went to see that while Jacob and I saw the Lorax as Hunger Games was a bit too violent for a 10 year old. Then we went to one of our Favorite St. George places, The Pizza Factory for some yummy pizza and killer bread twists. The next day we got up and were going to drive to Zions but figured it was cheaper to go to Snow Canyon and the kids had never been there. It was the right decision. The crowds were smaller and you could drive everywhere you needed to go and there were some pretty fun hikes and things to see. The kids were mad at me because I made them go on a super long hike and the majority of it was in deep sand and really hard to hike in. At the end there was supposed to be a pool but it was actually a puddle. Maddi had the day off from class so she was able to come with us too.
We ate at Marv's, another one of our favorite places and then hit the hot tub after dark.
Wednesday we spent poolside and I came home with a killer sunburn but it felt SO good to be out in the sunshine! I have decided that I really don't like living in the snow and I need to move to somewhere warm and sunny.
We woke up Thursday morning and hit the trail for a run before heading back home.
We came home for baseball as Jacob had a big practice Thursday night and a scrimmage Saturday morning.
We woke up this morning to snow....YUCK! If I had known that we would get snow I would never have come home!!!
There is too much snow to even have a baseball game Saturday. Why did we come home????????
Sunshine, warmth, hiking, good food (Mema's pork, beef, roast stuff ha ha) a few days with Mema and Grandpa and a few days with Maddi. I wish spring break was longer!!!

Double Digits
Wow, my baby is 10! That was fast! I can't believe he is so big! Because he is the youngest I think he is still a little kid but he is growing up so fast! He is awesome, he is friendly and kind and super smart! He Loves sports and we are still trying to find out what sport he will stick with because he is good in everything he plays. He loves to be outside playing with his buddies. He loves, or should I say he is addicted to Legos! He collects the mini figures and has hundreds of them and has them ALL over his room!
We had a birthday party for him and invited his school buddies. We went to the Rec. Center and they did the obstacle course in the pool. It was really fun and the life guards only had to jump in once to save one of them so I think that was pretty successful!
So happy birthday to the cutest, funnest, coolest 10 year old I know! Hopefully the next 10 won't go by as fast!
