The First Day of School

We had two weeks of summer this year. That is the joy of year round school. It really is not so bad, but two weeks was not long enough this year. Ivy was so excited to start Kindergarten. Mike took the girls to back to school night the night before school started.



Scotlyn took Ivy to show her where the library is. I love how they are holding hands.

When we asked the girls what they wanted for breakfast on the first day of school, Ivy said she wanted "school house french toast". I thought Mike did a wonderful job making "School house french toast"!








It really is hard to believe that I have two kids in school. We are coming up on another break from school, which I do really look forward to. I sure miss them when they are gone, and look forward to having a break. We have our "summer vacation" in December!

If the girls even tried to have a turn, he let them know it was his shovel. I'm sure he felt like he was a backhoe, moving dirt. That is his dream job.

Scotlyn's Birthday Party

Scotlyn's birthday is this coming Thursday, but because her birthday always falls around General Conference time, we try to have her party the week before conference. She has been counting down the days until her party all week. It was a lot of fun, and was so nice to have her party outside this year. Every year on her birthday, the weather has been cold, until this year. This is a picture of her a couple of days ago, when she decided she was going to build a hot air balloon and fly to Salt Lake. She packed a change of clothes in her backpack and took food with her in the box. She also had a few toys with her, but when she was ready to fly, she realized that there was not room for her to sit in the box. She kept saying to me, "Mom, this is really going to work. I'm going to Salt Lake, I'll be back later". It was too cute. She never did make it to Salt Lake, but she didn't seem too disappointed that she didn't fly. I love how at this age, they lo...
