The scenery on the way out of the canyon

We went on our first camping trip with our home away from home. We went on Thursday night up to Jordenelle and stayed tell Saturday. It was so fun to be together and play games and just visiting. We had fun doing the camping things like football, skipping rocks, taking walks, gathering fire wood, playing phase ten, enjoying the fall color. This is the first of many trips and even I am excited to go camping now. We have a lot of fun trips planned for the coming years. It will be fun to share these moments with our kids.

FALL LOVE

I love the fall!!!! We went up the canyon to see all the fall beauty. It is so amazing to see how the seasons change. The kids loved it they wanted to take pictures of every tree that has changed color. We live in such a pretty place. We enjoy the chance to have beatiful mountians and canyons to watch this amazing time of year. So have a Happy Autumn Time...

Kate's first day Preschool

She was so happy to be at school
Kate has been so ready for preschool. She has been so lonely. She was sad that all the other kids started. She loves school it has been a couple of weeks since she has started. She doesn't stop talking about it and well singing every song she learns. It's weird for me to have two days a week alone with no kids for a couple of hours. I miss them so much. I've been going to the stake institute class and it is great. This will only last till the end of February then I will be very busy.

Soccer Mom

This year I was able to put the boys on the same soccer team. Lets just say it was a life saver for me. One practice, one game a week. It was also nice for Maddie she was on her best friend Katie's team. So it was nice to have carpool for that. I love to watch my kids play. The boys are fun because they still are just getting the hang of it, so some times they trip over the ball or go the wrong direction. Kolby was so funny since he was the littlest on the team and it is his first year playing. He at first was not ready to get in to the cluster of kids but by the end of the season he started to get the hang of it. Bridger did really well he loves to play and he was able to score goals. Maddie has been good at soccer since she was little. She has always loved soccer. She has always been really aggressive. It's been a fun year to watch her. She has an amazing coach and has learned so much from him. It's been fun to be there for my kids and I love to be a soccer mom. The kids had a good little cheer squad from me and Kate.

A hunting we will go

He might have worn himself out So we went up to Logan for the start of the bird season hunt. Nick was so excited, he had a real good time. Our brother In laws have hunting dogs. They push out the birds and point it made it so much easier to find the birds.. Nick said it was amazing that the dogs do this. We had a lot of fun we went up the canyon after and had yummy tin foil dinners for lunch, then we went up to Emmalee's and visited. They cooked up the birds on kabobs and we had some yummy root beer floats. We had a lot of fun eating and visiting this trip.

Here we are ready for school another year. Maddison is going into Fifth grade. That is hard to grasp I remeber fifth grade so well. Bridger is going in to second grade. He has an amazing teacher he is way excited. Kolby my cute little boy I'm going to miss greatly is going into Kindergarten. At his doctors appt. we found out that he needs glasses to see the chalk board. We also had Nick checked and his are pretty bad. So my boys got glasses.
