First Day Of School!!!

So another year of school has started!!!! Wow we
had a nice 3 week summer break (gotta love year
round) I am really not ready for school to start
again!!! I just put there back-packs away in the
closet on friday, just in time to pull them back out
to start it all over again!!!! O well next year will be
better, I switched them to A-track so we will get
a 6 week summer!!!! Marlie started 3rd grade
yesterday and Jaiden started 1st grade today!!!
Man that ages me:( I am so proud of my cute girls,
they are growing up so beautiful and they really
are such good girls:) Yes they do fight, but they are
so polite and really are good friends!!! I love you
both so much!!! I will treasure these times, because
it won't be long before we have screaming and yelling
matches over make up and who is wearing who's clothes:)
(not that i would no anything about that:)) I know James
can't wait for those days either!!!!

Swimming Lesson Time!!!

So we started the kids in swimming lessons again
this year! Marlie and Jaiden have done it a few
years, but this was Ellie's first time!!! So at first
she sat on the stairs and wouldn't do anything,
then I basically had to get in with her, then she
finally would let the instructor take her into the
water, and was really enjoying it, then she got a little
to comfortable and went all the way down the stairs...
well she couldn't reach so needless to say everyone
went after her!!! She was just fine, but stayed on
the stairs from then on!!!!

Jaiden did really well and finally let someone

help her float on her back...she hates doing that!!!

Marlie is almost a pro!!! This is her swimming away!!!!

A Day In the Mountains!!!!

We went up to Deer Valley today with Grandma
Dini and rode the chair lift up to the very top of the
mountain!!!! It was so beautiful up there, you
could see all the valleys and lakes for miles and
miles!!! If you ever get this opportunity I suggest
you take it!!! We took a picnic lunch and ate at the
top!!! It was such a fun day!!!

James once again flexing his very manly muscles:)

Fun In The Sun!!!!!

We had so much fun yesterday...we took the kids to 7-Peaks!!!! James' brother was in town so we had a great time with all the cousins!!!!! Marlie and Jaiden were so excited because they could go on all the rides!!!! What a fun day!!!!

After all the fun, sun, and water...I came home with this horrible blister on the bottom of my foot!!!! I new the ground was hot so I would quickly run from one part of shade to the next, but I never realized it was hurting my feet so bad!!! Well just goes to show that the part you would most think would be protected from the sun isn't:( OOUUUCCCHHHH!!!!!!!
