Dailey's First Day of Kindergarten...

Dailey was so excited to go to Kindergarten! She is in the morning class and she had a great first day! She just loves it! Her cute cousin is in the other morning class and they get to see each other at school!
Dailey has Miss. McIntyre as her teacher and has really loved having her as her teacher.

It has been so different with Dailey in school. Lucy now takes on the roll of older sister here at home for a few hours. We all miss Dailey while she is gone. She is a really sweet girl. She brings back prizes from school to give to her sister and brother.

Dailey loves to sit down and do her homework. She enjoys it! It may not come as easy for her but she really loves to sit down and write her letters and we have been working on her site words.
The teacher talked to me about testing her for speech. She has a hard time saying some of the sounds of the letters and they think she would benefit from the going to the speech therapist at the school.
It will be fun to see how she grows and watch her throughout this school year.
We sure love her!

Dailey and her broken foot...

This little girl was playing tag with Tayson and Lucy at the school while we were taking pictures of Cole's first day of school. She tripped and she fractured her metatarsol bone in her foot. We didn't think anything was wrong. She was crying and we told her to get up but she wouldn't walk on it. Kevin carried her to the car. He went off to work and she sat on our couch and cried on and off for a few hours. I decided to take her in and sure enough it was broken. It is hard sometimes to know if kids are really hurt or not.
She wore the splint for a week and than they gave her this shoe to wear. The shoe didn't fit very well so we ended up wearing it for 2 weeks and than let her take it off. She goes back to check on it soon. So hopefully it has healed!

Cole's First Day of Second Grade...

This boy was excited to start school! Even if he would say otherwise. We had a great time back to school shopping for clothes and school supplies. He took a football the first day to school and it had to be in our pics too.

His teacher is Mrs. Chandler and she is actually in our ward as well. He started out knowing two little buddies in his class. Spencer and a boy named Gustavo. All his other little buddies all are in different classes. He loved his first week! We are now a few weeks in and he still loves it! He is learning a lot and becoming a great reader!

Double the Trouble and with Scissors...

I usually don't have to worry too much about these two but I was in the kitchen chopping up tomatoes from our garden to make some tomato sauce and these two wanted to cut out some things they printed from the computer. I told them that would be ok and the next thing I know Dailey comes in and said they were doing haircuts! I couldn't believe it! I thought Dailey was old enough to know better! But it was in fact her idea! Lucy told me, "it was Dailey's idea" which I wasn't for sure since she blames things on everyone! :)
I got a little upset but tried to hold it together and instead of yelling I started to tear up and so did the girls. They started bawling! They both kept saying sorry and we had a talk about scissors and who gives them haircuts.
Lucy kept saying is Daddy gonna be mad and all day kept apologizing for it!
We had Aunt Amber to the rescue and went a couple days later to get them some haircuts!

Cousin Bowling Fun...

We signed up for this kids bowl free club thing and thought we would use it all summer long. But here it is the end of summer and well this is our first time doing it! We went with cousins and had a great time. At first it was a little crazy as Tayson was picking up every bowling ball he could. But once we got the shoes on and lanes were set these kids had a great time!

Wow! I can't believe Summer is almost over and School starts next week! Well for Cole at least. Dailey has her Kindergarten Assessment and than will start the Thursday after Labor day!

I am so excited for this new school year and I Love Fall time! But I have just LOVED summer and being able to just hang out with my Family has been Awesome! Don't get me wrong. I had my days where if the teasing and fighting didn't stop I was sure I was going to Lose It! But it has been a good One!

Weekend and Birthday Fun...

 We spent the Saturday doing some back to school shopping and we had to hit sam's club too. Outside of Sam's had some booths that we had to go check out since the kids spotted the  Ninja Turtle!

Kevin and I than got to escape on a date to the Parade of Homes! I haven't been since before I was married and I forgot how much I love it!
I love the ideas you come away with!

On my birthday Kevin got up and made a yummy breakfast and he even had the kids help him make fun birthday signs. When Kevin got home from work he brought ice cream and a brownie mix and made my birthday treat!
We went out to dinner with the kids at Pizza Pie Cafe! It was a great Birthday!

Father and Son Campout and Girls Night...

We got home from Bear Lake around 3:00 on Friday and Kevin and the boys helped us all unload from  that and than we packed a cooler and a bag and Kevin's Dad picked them up with his camp trailer to head out to our ward Father and Son campout!

Cole was asking all summer when this campout was he loves going and I think he loves taking Grandpa Dearden's trailer and hanging out with just the boys!

 I kept telling Kevin to leave Tayson home. Just because it had been a long week and I wasn't sure how he would do but he refused he said he is a boy and he should go too!

So off they went.
We stayed and cleaned up a few things and picked our tomatoes from our garden and than headed off to Zupas for dinner. The girls loved it and ate it so well and boy is having only the two of them super easy!
We came home and watched Ella Enchanted and went to bed!

The next day we did a morning Teaparty with Banana muffins and Chocolate Milk!
