First Day of School

Ok today was the boys first day of Kindergarten. Oh my they looked HANDSOME!!! They love their teacher. They had a great day. For me today went FAST!! My program does not start until next week. But I have this week to really get prepared for it and to get my tutors prepared. That is about it for here. We are just BUSY, BUSY. And we are going camping this weekend. So even more to do!! Oh one more thing, I went out to give the girls water tonight and what do I see going across the dirt. It was a "Our Little Guest" only smaller. All this rain has them out. But great thing that they are not harmful. Love YA!!

Our little guest

Ok so we have had like 6 to 7 inches of rain since last wednesday. Well we went out in the backyard tonight and Brad goes to put fresh water in the dogs water bowl. He goes to pick up the bowl and dump it out and look at what he found. A little Garter Snake. Then we ask the boys if they want to hold him. Well of course they say YES!! I think they may be the next Steve Irwin maybe?? They jsut wanted to keep holding him. Poor thing. But I think you would like to know we let him go back where we found him, under the dogs water bowl.

10 days

10 days until school starts. Or shall I say 10 days and my babies will be in Kinder. Oh my they have grown too fast. Well we have been watching some of the Olympics. The boys want to be in the Olympics when they get older for swimming. Ok this is funny because Dakota is somewhat afraid of the water. When we go swimming at a friends house he does NOT get in. Dustin will get in for a short time, but Dakota won't. SO I had to tell him in a nice motherly voice "if you want to be in the Olympics for swimming you have to start swimming when we go." Anyways, I hope everyone is well and everyone have a great Friday and great weekend!! OH and one more thing the boys are now Better!! YAY!!!

Camping

Well this weekend we went to Palo Duro Canyon. We went camping with some good friends that we could really call family. We had a blast but saturday we TOO hot!! Well we woke up this morning to Dustin AND Dakota both being sick. I think they got WAY too hot yesterday. Anyways I got some awesome pictures of them out there yesterday and I thought I would share.

last day

Well today was the last day of my summer program! YAY!! No more dealing with the summer lunch people which is run by the City. Let me tell you they are a pain in the booty. Well anyways since it was our last day we decided to have a awards ceremony for the kids. I had my tutors come up with an award for EVERY child. And not just your typical award. Well since Dustin and Dakota was in the summer program they got awards. Dustin was for the best super man move. The other day he flew out of the swing backwards, in mid air he laid flat out and rolled over and looked just like super man flying through the air. Now Dakota his award was for the most clumsy. If you know Dakota you know that this FITS him to a T. Only my child can fall off of the stool and bust his lip open. Then just maybe a hour later fall and hit his head. So now tomorrow I have to register them for Kindergarten. It just doesn't seem like they should turn 6 next month. The time flies by TOOOOOOOO fast!!

Lazy

Well I accomplished what I wanted for this weekend. I got my much needed rest. I ended up watching 4 movies yesterday. 3 during the day and 1 in the evening. Before the last one we went shopping for the boys birthday invitations. And today I cleaned house and still had time to be lazy. I feel so refreshed!

Vacation

Well we got back from vacation on Sunday. Let me tell you we have NEVER done so many things on vacation before. I am very much looking forward to the weekend to rest. Anyways this picture was taken on our way down Pikes Peak. Yes that is snow behind us. It started out like 77 degrees at the bottom by the time we got to the top it was 46 degrees. Well let me tell you that there was road construction on the way to the top, which had it down to one lane for a part of it. It started raining then hailing and then when we got to the top it was SNOWING!!! Talk about FUN, FUN, FUN!! Anyways on vacation we also went to the Zoo, Cave of the Winds, The North Pole, Pikes Peak in Colorado Springs and the Dinosaur Museum in Woodland Park. Along with the shopping and the fact that we took a extra child. Yeah we took Caysie she is 2 and we had to potty train her while we camped. No wonder I am TIRED!!!!!!!
