School is starting!



School starts WEDNESDAY! I can't believe it is already here. I am NOT ready. To me when school starts, that means it is fall. Which means cold is just around the corner. Yuck! We have had soooo much fun this summer. I have loved being home with the kids. We have done so many fun things and spent a lot of time together. Our swimming suits are pretty much worn right out. We got lots of boating in as well as swimming in any water we could get in. Travis and Matthew spent 9 days in Alaska fishing. They had a blast and brought home more fish than we are ever going to eat! They really enjoyed the trip together. While they were gone, I went south to Saint George 'cuz it just isn't hot enough here for me. Mindy and Brynlee went with me. Jaycee is already down there going to school so she met up with us a lot of the time. We shopped, ate, swam, shopped, and ate some more. It was great. I didn't mind the heat at all. Jaycee had a soccer game on Sat night and it was perfect. Probably 90. The only reason I had to come home was to see Travis and the kids. Other wise I would have stayed.

Peyton and Matthew will be going to Mount Logan Middle School. Wierd. Am I that old? They are excited. Dylan is going into 4th grade and has the same teacher Peyton had. Emily is going into 3rd grade. And Sydney is going into kindergarten. I hope she is ready!

Two pitch softball starts this Wed for Travis. I love watching the games, but I'm not good enough to play. The women on the team are awesome players and I just don't quite match up. I am trying to find a place for the girls to take dance this fall and trying to decide on preschool for Brynlee also. She seems so small still. I'm not sure what to do. Check out the pics. The kids slept out on the tramp and the mosquitoes got them good. Especially Sydney!





All togher they brought
home around 800 lbs of fish!
