Swim Meet and Spring Break 2013;Day 1

We started our Spring Break by traveling to Cedar City for the first Long Course swim meet of the season. About 2 miles outside of Beaver my good friend and fellow coach Celeste called and asked where we were. They had run out of gas and were hoping we were close. Luckily we were!! We stopped in Beaver and got some gas for them, and then met them about 15 miles away from there and got them going again. The meet was long and everyone was tired so there weren't that many great swims. Marshall got the swimmers together to play cards during the meet. 
 This pic is of Scott swimming one of the freestyle events.
 He did well and brought home a few medals.
 Amy diving,
 And finishing. She had a rough meet, but swam the 400 IM for the first time and actually did quite well finishing 3rd.
 Samantha swimming the 400 free. She had a pretty strong race and finished 2nd.

 Scott is in the middle holding the bag. He got quite a few eggs.
 Amy reaching for some eggs. She won a basket that had everything needed for a manicure. Perfect!
 Samantha gave up on trying to use a bag and stuffed the eggs into her suit. She also won a basket that contained lotion and other skin care items. She was excited.
 After the meet we drove to Las Vegas for the night. We spent 4 hours walking the strip and checking out the hotels. Everyone was exhausted by the time we got back to our hotel. Marshall decided that he would make pancakes in our room to save money so we wouldn't have to buy breakfast. I had to get a picture of it. We had some nice views of Vegas outside our window.
 Since it was a Sunday, and Easter, we found a ward by the temple and attended sacrament meeting. Then we drove to the temple and took some pictures.

 My sweet little boy giving me a kiss. See how I hardly have to bend down?  They are all getting way too tall. Amy is now 1 1/2 inches taller than I am. It's not very fun.
 In case you can't tell, I am the one in the brown dress. Luckily I have another year or two before Scott is taller than I am.
