Meg preschool

Hank I just dropped Meg off at her first day of preschool.
The house seems really quiet and empty.
She was so excited.
And looks too old.
She didn't want me to come in with her to the classroom.
She said "You already got a picture"
Hank wanted his picture taken too.

First Day of First Grade

Today was Kate's first day of 1st grade.
Last night she was a little nervous.
She told one of the moms at the school while waiting to meet her teacher that she might cry.
She didn't.
She was so excited and up at 7 this morning asking what she needed to do.
I told her she can go back to bed.
It was so bright outside.
So I told the kids to close there eyes and on three open...hank apparently didn't understand.
Aryann and Kate have been in the same class for 2 years of preschool and Kindergarten.
But not this year.
She had to of her best little friends in her class.
Clara. Kate. Emily.
Looks like Kate will be one of the tallest in her class again.
She was so chatty and happy when she came home from school.
She loves her class, her teacher, lunch, recess and everything about school.
and "can't wait to go back again all day tomorrow"

Summertime

Summertime...
I am so sad you are almost over.
The girls are getting excited for school to start.
Kate isn't sure about going all day, but really excited for three recesses.
I am not so sure about my baby girl being gone all day.
I have loved the lazy days of summer and sad they are almost gone.
My kids are growing way too fast.
You have giving us so many wonderful days.
We have been to the rodeo...and sold out of all the BBQ we were serving.
Attended many parades...all of them daddy complained about going too.
We have been to the cabin two times in 3 weeks.
Played in the water, caught tadpoles, made hula hoops, and rode horses.
We have been boating on Grandpas boat with our cousins.
Hank and the girls wants to only be outside.
He loves to say something and then end in "Right, mom" or "I did it"
He has loved teasing Dale with "Go Utes"
Tonight while riding bikes outside I told Meg "She was a good bike rider" and her reply "I am going to be a grandma when I grow up"
Daddy and Nick got most of the swing set put together last night and the kids have loved playing on the slide.
I have been a loved sleeping in most days and have become very lazy with working out, but am now getting my rear in gear.
Rod and I are training right now for the Salt to Saint bike ride.
Please keep the morning bright and warm a little longer.
My garden has/is being very plentiful.
I have canned 29 quarts of pickles. All picked from my garden.
And right as I write we are expecting Denae and Nicks baby at minute.
There is nothing better then new babies and I can't wait to hold him.
Here is a glimpse of our summer in pictures.
