Mielke's Spring Break

My parents spring break was the last week in March and they made the long trek down here to St. George.  My brother Josef also took some time off work and came down at the beginning of the week.  It was so great to have them here to visit!!   Glad they come down so often to visit and spend time with us and my grandma.  Here are some of the highlights of their visit with the pictures I took:

Playing tennis for family home evening on Monday.  My mom was on Calin duty! 

My Dad got a new ball machine for Christmas and so
we were all trying it out.  You can see it in the bottom left corner.
Calin was helping pick up and gather balls.  He got
pretty attached to the one he has in his hand and wouldn't let it go.
He's been very possessive of toys lately! 

My Dad hitting some balls. 

Robby and Josef taking turns hitting balls. 

My mom and I taking our turn. 

Calin climbing trees with Grandma. 

Enjoying the lovely spring St. George weather! 

Calin loved anyone that would take him outside to walk and to hang out with Mia. 

Our entertainment...Everyone watching Calin! 

Grandpa and Calin ready to go outside in their matching hats. 

Swimming at Grandma's Pool

Calin is really starting to love the pool and being in water! 

Dyeing Easter eggs the Santa Clara way...flowers/weeds and onion skins! 

This ottoman at my Grandma's house was a perfect size for Calin.
He loved standing there and driving his cars on it.

A nice evening walk around the block. 

Calin was pretty excited to ride in the wagon! 

Trying out the best tricycle ever! 

On Thursday night my cousin Maren, her husband Kamrom, and their kids came to visit
 my grandma. We enjoyed catching up with her and her cute family and having a bbq dinner outside!
Love the beautiful spring weather!   

 Calin loved having other kids to play with!

Calin  got to check out the "stream" that is behind my grandma's house.  

It was so wonderful to have time to spend with my family!  We also went to the art festival, did some shopping, and spent lots of time playing with Calin!  He is very entertaining! 

On Friday we drove up to Salt Lake to continue the party! I will do a separate post for that.  So glad that my parents and brother came down to St. George to visit! It's nice to have them come!
