Fall Soccer Season has Come and Gone

The kids played soccer again this year and both really enjoyed it. Carson has played for 6 years now and is improving with every game. I love to see him out there on the field playing his heart out. His favorite position to play is defender and he is so good at it.





This year is Abbi's second year and she love to be out there playing. Well when she's not playing on the field with her little friend Berkley. Her very first game Abbi scored a goal for her team. We are so proud of her.

The Perfect Weekend Getaway!!

Last weekend I suprised Jaime and took him up to Park City for a couple nights. We enjoyed the Mountain weather, Fall colors and each other. It was a perfect weekend for both of us.

Kids 1st Day of School

Carson and Abbi so excited and ready to start school.



Carson
4th Grade
Teacher: Ms. Glass
Favorite Subject: Math



Abbi
Afternoon Kindergarten
Teacher: Ms. Aurthur
Ready to Learn



Jaime and I dropped off Abbi at her 1st official day of Kindergarten. She was so excited and didn't look back once. I can't believe that my baby girl is in school. It makes me so happy that she is excited and ready to learn.



Hope they have a Fabulous school year!

School starts tomorrow.

This summer has flown by and now its time for school to start already. I am have mixed feelings about the kids starting school tomorrow.

I am not too worried about Carson, I always get nervous for him, will he be a good student? Will he have friends? Will he learn and grow like he needs to? I guess deep down I know he will be fine but as a mom I always have these worries and feelings.

I haven't wanted to face the fact that Abbi is now a Kindergartner. I am happy for her and I know she needs to grow and learn but she is my baby! I thought I had more time but the past 5 years has flown by. I know I have to let her go but this is so hard for me. My baby is growing up!

Our Last Official Summer Camping Trip

Last weekend we met my sisters (Allison and Alexis) and my Dad in Hagerman Idaho for a fun camping weekend. The campsite was right by the snake river and was in a beautiful setting for a fun weekend with my family.

We went to the Fish Hatchery and did a little Fishing.

Thanks to my family for a fun weekend!

Bear Lake

Every summer we go up to Bear Lake to spend the day at the beach.

Sun, Sand, Water, Family and Fun!!

This year was no different. We had fun swimming, playing in the sand and just relaxing with family.

Date Night with the Kids.

At least once a month we try to take the kids out to do something. Saturday we took the kids to Dinner at Fazolis and then to Cherry Hills to play miniature golf. The kids have never played and had so much fun. Surprisingly they were really good.

After our game we took the kids for ice cream and drove around and showed the kids all the places we use to live. They were so interested in seeing and listening to our story before they were born. We had so much fun spending this time with the kids. We get caught up in our everyday lives its so nice to take a step away from home and do fun stuff with the kids!

24th of July

Here in Utah the 24th of July almost seems like a bigger holiday than the 4th. We had a fun day. In the morning everyone met at IHop for breakfast. Then we went to the Bountiful Carnival. The kids and Jaime had fun playing in the park and on all the toys.

After spending a few hours at the park we went to Grammys house to swim.
