New School Year 2012

What crazy cute kids I have! Wyatt started 2nd grade this year and Livvy started 1st grade.  I don't know what was up with Wyatt's crazy faces that day- but I absolutely could not get him to give me a normal smile! Ike was sure that he was going to school with Wyatt. He had to pack his own backpack with his 'gym shoes' and the only way that I dragged him out of the school was by promising him that we would take his Daddy a donut.  It was a close call.  It's been a great start to what I am hoping is a great year.

4th of July

The 4th of July started with a Ward Breakfast and Flag Ceremony.  Wyatt practiced with the scouts for days to perfect their ceremony and he looked so handsome in his uniform.  We then spent the day hanging out with the family at the river and ended the day with sparklers and fireworks.  Family Traditions are one of my favorite things about summer.

Swimming Lessons

My kiddos have always been little fish.  They love to swim and we spend lots of time in the water. Livvy passed Level 2 this year and Wyatt passed Level 3.  They worked so hard and improved a lot.  Ike is not quite old enough for lessons yet, so I got to spend my time on the sidelines entertaining him. I was very glad when the two weeks were up :)!

End of School Year Fun!

Yes- I know that the 2012-2013 school year just started, but I need to catch up on the 2011-2012 school year first!  

Livvy completely loved kindergarten!  She made so many friends and loved learning new things.  She had a blast at the 'Field Day' at the end of the year and did such a great job at her Kindergarten Graduation!

Wyatt totally rocked 1st grade and we could not have been more proud with how much he learned and improved, the friendships he made, and how much he grew!  Below are his fun pictures from Field Day.

Zoo Boise

Over Spring break this year, we did more of a 'staycation' and planned fun things to do each day. We went swimming, played at the park, went to the movies, and made a trip to Boise to the zoo. We had so much fun!

Hoppy Easter!

As usual, our Easter was full of family, Easter baskets, Egg hunts and cute kids. We are so blessed.

Happy birthday Livvy!

My little girl isn't so little anymore! All of a sudden she is six! How did that happen? Instead of dolls and Dress up, she loves singing karaoke and doing art projects. She loves Hannah Montana and Justin Bieber. She is so smart and independent. We sure love her!

Utah State Cheer Camp

Livvy and I traveled to Utah this weekend so she could participate in the Utah State Cheer Camp that her Uncle Shane helps run with one o her food friends from Tremonton. We had such a fun little girls trip together and she loved every minute of the cheer camp. That girl loves the spotlight.
