Preschool

Preschool started back up on the 2nd of September! Presli goes 3 days a week when my mom teaches, and with me 5 days a week when I teach. We went out and bought her new school clothes! She loved helping me pick out outfits! I had so much fun doing it too! Here is a picture of her on one of her first days of school! Don't you love the sneakers??

Snowflake...Arizona!

Over Labor Day weekend, me, Joe and the kids packed up our stuff and took a 15 passenger van to Snowflake with his parents and his sister Cindy's family! We were loaded down! It was hilarious to have all of us loaded in this huge white van! Presli and the kids loved it. Her and Layla played, chatted and watched movies the whole way. Isaiah didn't make a peep most of the time, and us adults talked and enjoyed each others company. We went to see Joe's Grandparents. I had met them a few years ago, but they had not met either of our kids, or Cindy's kids and had not yet met Scott. So we decided over the long weekend, to make the trip. We had a great time. Laughed a lot and a few tears were shed. I only met Joe's grandparents three years ago, and his Grandma had started with Alzheimers. She asked over a dozen times who I was, and when Joe got married. Same with this trip. She doesn't remember anything longer than ten minutes or so. From what I see, Joe's grandparents are amazing people. His grandma still makes funny jokes, and his grandpa treats his wife like a queen! His Aunt Mary lives with them and takes care of them. She must be an amazing person, because that has got to be a difficult job...she will be rewarded! We had a great trip. It was good to spend a few days with family. Presli had so much fun with Layla. They are about 2 months apart and they just played (and fought)with each other the whole time. It made me realize how much more we need to get our kids together! Here are a bunch of pictures from our trip.











Great picture...4 generations!

24th of July

We had a fun 24th of July. I am in the primary presidency and we had breakfast and a little bike parade after. The kids get to decorate their bikes and then ride around in a circle in the parking lot. Presli rode her bike for the first time. She loved it. Afterwards went swimming with lacy, Nate and Korver and had a little BBQ. We went home and the kids took a little nap. Later we went over to the Library park where they had booths set up and did Movie in the Park. We had pizza and watched a few minutes of the movie. Then we went back to our house and let the kids do some sparklers. Korver could have cared less about them, he was too interested in crawling on the sidewalk. Presli loved them though. It was a fun day!! Get ready for lots of pictures!!
