First Day of School

Of course I have to include our first day of school pictures.....especially since it is Emily's first year.
How cute are these three! Trevor was already gone to school, and even if he was home there is no way he would have been happy with me taking his picture!

Congratulations Austin and B.E. United Soccer Club!

In August, Austin and his soccer team took first place at the Layton Strikers Cup Tournament!
His medal was actually really heavy and cool looking.

Way to go Austin!


Puppies!

Our neighbors had some puppies over one day....and the girls could not get enough!



For the rest of the day, all I heard was..... "Please can we get one?".....


As much as I thought they were cute....all I kept thinking was all the work and mess that comes when something so cute and small gets soooo big! I was relieved when the puppies went home.

Hey Everyone!

Just a note to let you all know I am still alive! My printer is down right now, but as soon as it is up and running again I will be adding more pictures to my blog. I have some really cute pics of our trip to Jackson, Wy to visit Jeff and Deb...so keep an eye out for them! Thanks Jeff and Deb for a fun time!

My kids are all really busy right now with school starting up, and all of their activities outside of school. Trevor is on the high school golf team and has qualifyed for all of their JV tournaments. Just yesterday he played for varsity for the first time! Congrats to Trevor! Austin is busy with his soccer team, and they are playing better than ever this season. Kylie is taking a break from dance and is just enjoying third grade for right now. Emily is dancing this year and has also started kindergarten this year. I can't believe my baby is in school! She always wants to walk all by herself to school everyday, but of course I will not let her. So we have comprimised.....we walk together to the crosswalk, and then I stay on the sidewalk and she walks alone across the road and into the school. I can hardly believe how fast time has flown by..... I am almost an empty nester now! At least during the day.

The Burton's













In June we ventured south to Cedar City and stayed with our great friends, the Burton's. We spent 7 days there, and of course it was not long enough! Laurel had some cute things set up for the 4 youngest to do, and they had so much fun! We went to the discovery park, Emily and Carson fishing in the miscellaneous drawer, and the kids making scrapbooks with Laurel. We miss you Burton Family!


Yuma Vacation!







After visiting the Burton's, we headed further down south and spent 2 weeks in Yuma, Az. We stayed with Leslie and Melinda, and had a blast! The top picture is of their pool.... so much fun! The next is Kylie drying off, and then sleepy Emily (and Tally keeping watch).










Everyday in Yuma (except for 2) we splashed and played in the pool. It felt so good since the outside temps were around 100 degrees!
