Caden's 8th Grade DC Trip and Total Eclipse

 Caden went on a trip to Washington D.C. with his entire grade.  Unfortunately, he took very few pictures.  The teachers sent a daily email saying what they did and saw each day with a few pictures.

He flew there on Sunday.  When they arrived in DC, they went straight to the Museum of American History.  And they also had a walking tour of DC that evening.  Daniel shared this selfie with his mom...Jax Farrell, Preston Wilson, Daniel Crow, and Caden.

A group pic taken by the teachers.  Caden is 3rd from the left on the second row.


Monday was the total eclipse in Dallas.  It was really cool!  DC only had a partial eclipse, but Caden still enjoyed seeing it.  




Monday Caden went to the Museum of the Bible, then they headed to Ford's Theatre.  After lunch, they went to the National Cathedral, and then they watched the eclipse.  Then they headed to the Smithsonian Natural History Museum.

March Activities

Nana and Papa came over to hang out for the last day of Spring Break.  A pic of Caden, Papa, and Annabelle at Top Golf. 

Baseball season is in full swing.  Caden is only playing 3rd base this year.



Caden is still playing tournaments with his Triumph team pretty frequently.  They won their tournament last weekend.


Annabelle had a Triumph basketball game and played against her friend Makenna.


Laura got randomly paired with a Covenant dad to play for the mixed doubles championship at DAC.  And they won!

Spring Break in Utah

 After a few hours of flight delays, we made it to Utah for Spring Break.  We arrived so late Friday that we spent the night in Vegas.  Then Saturday morning, we drove to St George.  We headed out for a short hike before dinner.





We headed to Bryce Canyon on Sunday.  It was cold, and there was too much snow to do any actual hiking.










Some family pickleball.


Top Golf with cousins.

Then we went to Zion National Park.
