Growing

 Yes, for those who asked, we will be GROWING!
 We will be welcoming little boy #3 in February.
I am feeling really great right now and we couldn't be more excited!
Our numbers aren't the only thing growing around here...
19 Weeks and counting...

Aggie Friend Reunion '11

We held out 4th Annual Friend Reunion last weekend. 
Four of the best friends/roommates from USU have now turned into a group of SIXTEEN (with at least one more on the way)!
We did the camping thing...in the rain.  Luckily we were on a family lot with 2 trailers...not so rough!

Caroline and her boys

 Little boy pajama party!
There are 7 boys and 1 girl between us!

 Aren't these girls beautiful?!
Caroline, Carissa, and baby Matthew

 Leigh and Caroline teaching the boys the art of "Go Fish."

 Kenny and my tykes!

 The girls took a four-wheeler ride together. 

 My boys...in the mud, of course!

 What is it about little boys...I hope it is not just us!

 Leigh and her little boy, Johnny.
We had a great time, and the guys were so great to take the kids on adventures while we girls caught-up!  I sure do miss these girls...till next year!

An Apple a Day

The boys and I have been trying to enjoy the last few weeks of summer.  I haven't exactly been feeling up to par for the last couple months :-)...so we are trying to make up for it now that I am feeling a little better.
We have had a lot of fun "Summer Time" adventures!
 On one such adventure, I took the boys to pick some apples (with many visions of delicious apple treats in my head).
 The boys had a blast...at first. 
Tanner said to me "We are getting boring, so you can fill our bags while we go play."
They were playing so well that I couldn't say no.
 When we got home, Jack took one bite out of about ten (or more) apples.
BUT...the worst of it was that he took one into the bathroom and flushed it down the toilet!
 I flushed the toilet a couple times and everything was in working order.
No harm done...right?!?
 Well, three days later, the basement starts to flood. 
Thank you to a wonderful plumber who saved the day. 
In the meanwhile, we have a another great "tyke #2 story"!
We do have many apples and many delicious treats...yum.  Especially since I have had quite an appetite lately!

Because it's tradtion....

First day pics!
Preschool
Tanner 4 and Jack 3
 Little tyke number 2 is not quite ready for this.  He is really struggling with preschool so far...more on that later.  At least he is stinkin' adorable and can melt my heart!
 Tyke #1 is BEYOND ready.  He is so excited and wants everyday to be a preschool day.  He is outgoing and roudy and loves to learn!
Yes, I am teaching preschool again this year.  I am even shocked at how much I am loving it!  I love being with my boys, and I really enjoy teaching...for some strange reason :)  I will keep up with that later.

Bear Lake

Kenny and I took the boys up to Bear Lake for the 4th of July weekend.
We camped out and had a fun time being together.



 Still snow at  Tony Grove...really pretty.




 Jack liked playing with that tennis ball more than fishing.





We hiked, fished, played with fireworks, did go-carts, ate raspberry shakes, rode jetskies, and played on the beach.  I was bad with the camera, but we caught a couple memories and had a really fun time!
