BaCK to SchOOl

Here it is. It's finally time to go back to school. Here is Kimberlen on her first day of 3rd Grade.
Such a silly smile.

One of the only people I know that gets to talk on the phone before school.


We also made some cookies. These were so fun. It was like playing with Play Doh and that is what they were called.

Showing their creations.
Yummy Yummy!

AZ trip

Desiree and I took our kids to go visit with our Grandma for a week - here is the result. These pictures are all out of order, but I am sick of trying to get it right. We had such a great time. We drove at night to Las Vegas then during the day to Cottonwood, AZ for 2 days then to Phoenix for 2 days then back to Cottonwood for 2 days then during the evening back to Las Vegas then during the day back home. We decided during the day was much easier, but all in all the kids did great.
Here they are on the way home. The other two in the back were sleeping at this point.

Swimming in Las Vegas.

More swimming.

And yet more.

Me, Grandma and Desriee'.

They were actually getting along at Grandmas, even if Hudson doesn't look thrilled in the picture.

All the second cousins except Mason.

Brylee got caught pulling the T.P. in Aunt Shauna's bathroom.

New baby Talon, the reason we ventured to Phoenix.

Popsicles.

And the little girls.

Maycee running and jumping side-ways in the pool.

The butterfly that Brylee caught one morning at Grandmas.

I think it was sick, it never flew away.

Brylee thought it was really neat.

Driving over the Hoover Dam.

Sleeping on the way to Las Vegas.

Someone always had to lay on someone else. That was the hard part.

Brylee was sleeping in the car still.
Great Grandma and Brylee.

Sleeping on the floor at Grandmas.

The two little ones always wanted to sit with Grandma.

We enjoyed spending time with our loved ones, but it sure is nice to be home.
