Kenzie's First Field Trip

Gary was able to go with Kenzie to Hee Haw Farms. I'm glad he has been able to fit these kind of things into his schedule because I think the kids will look back and really appreciate these fun times with their dad.

Homecoming

Here is my beautiful daughter, Brooke. She deserves to be treated like a princess and she might have felt that way this night. They went to The Roof in Salt Lake. She said it was delicious and there were flowers waiting on their table. I don't usually get much out of her talking wise, but I think she had a really good time. Her Senior Pics are just amazing. We're gonna have a hard time picking one out for our wall. Hard to see our kids all grown up!!!! Love you Brooke!

First Day of School Pics....

The kids have now been in school for 1 week. Kenzie started today, hence the week until a first day of school post. She has been so excited. So far everyone is happy. My carpool is like Heaven. When Sadie went to Saratoga Shores I drove her both ways everyday and now I am grateful there are so many from our Ward going out there. I never thought I would see the day when I enjoyed carpooling. This year will be both good and bad. Brooke is a Senior, Sadie in 9th, Trevor in 6th, Blake in 3rd and McKenzie in Kindergarten. Being the top dog at a school is pretty awesome for the kids, but seeing them move on to the next school is tough. My kids are growing up way too fast. I thought sending Kenzie would be no problem, because she is #6 and I kept her home an extra year. I still got emotional. Probably because I realize how quickly they go from Kindergarten to Graduation. I wonder how the goodbye in heaven went knowing some of us might not make it HOME. I will enjoy knowing that it is only 3 hours a day and then she will come home and talk my ear off. Hopefully Kodee doesn't make me too crazy. She thinks that she is going to school also. I have told her that she can't wear diapers to school, I'll have to think up something else when she decides to get potty trained.
