First day of school.....

The kids started school this morning and I was kind of happy and sad both at the same time....I love hanging out with my kids but eventually it had to come to an end...James started his Junior year,Demetrious started his 8th grade year and Day started her 4th grade year....I am so happy my dad past his truck down to James...it has been such a life saver...Demetrious thought is was pretty cool he didn't have to have his mom drop him off in the mini van this morning....

Trip to Bear Lake,Ut

Okay...so the original plan for our camp out was planned months in advance and what do you know---Amber gets sick....So big James and I decide to still take the kids camping...Well long story short we took Match,Abby and Courtney along for the fun too!!! We had a ton of fun...The first two days were just cold and cloudy...The kids decide they were going for a swim regardless and that they did...We ended up going into town for Raspberry shakes on Saturday afternoon...We stopped by this really cute shop and found a board game called "LAST WORD"....great,fun game...Sunday was a much better day...the sun was out and the lake was a little warmer...just a little...James and I planned a great menu and the food was worth the camp out altogether....

Mt. Timoanogos

James was invited by Courtney's family to go on a hike...James was up definitely up to it but we are not hikers so it was great that he was so pumped about the hike..He said it was pretty intense....James really had a good time...Courtney's family are just to good to him...
