10 year Anniversary!!!

I know I am so behind on my blogging so be patient as I have alot to update! On August 21st we celebrated our big 10 year anniversary. I cant believe how fast those 10 years have gone and boy was I spoiled. I woke up (and it was the first day of school) and Dave had made an agenda for my day starting at 9am I had a shopping spree to the mall till noon and then I met him at the Olive garden for lunch. From 1-4 I had a trip to the spa for a massage, pedicure and manicure. It was so fabulous!!! He stayed home with the 2 little kids all day while I was gone. I came home just in time for the girls to get off the bus. He had 10 roses for me. Just a side note- He gives me a rose for every year we have been married every year with a poem that he writes. This years was a good one! He made me feel so loved! I love him so much! Thanks honey for the great day!
I had to get a picture of my feet soaking. They are going to have to work real hard on these babies!

First Day of School!

I cant believe Chandler is going to 2nd grade. It makes me sad to think how fast they grow up. Jillian and Chandler on the first day of school. Chandler has Ms. Gehringer, she is great!
Mally always wants to make faces for the camera so we let her since it was the first day!
Kristi, Jillian and Lauren with me and the girls at the school. We were trying to be brave leaving our kids.

August 21st was the first day of school here. Mallory is starting kindergarten. I am so sad to have her go. She goes ALL day long. She was so excited to go since Chandler has been telling her all about her school. Mallory is ready for the day! Emma, Mallory and Chandler on the first day of school!
Mallory with her new teacher Mrs. Shaw. We have heard fabulous things about her and she seems really nice so I think we will have a great year!

Already 8 months!!

Oh my, I cant believe my little man is already 8 months old. He is seriously so happy!

Birthday Girl!

I had such a great day on my birthday. I started out going to some gargae sales with Danyelle. She is the best gargae seller EVER!! Then I went out and mowed the lawn which I do love to do now! My beehive girls showd up with a card and a yummy fruit pizza made by them and Danyelle. So they came in and ate with me. However I had just gotten out of the shower so I had NO makeup and my hair had air dried. GROSS!! Ya it was not a pretty sight! Dave and the girls gave me a chi!! Hip hip hooray!!! We went out to dinner at Murris while the Isoms watched our kids. Thank you so much!!

St Louis Trip!

We went to St Louis a few weeks ago for a night with some friends. We stayed in a hotel and the girls just love to do that. We stayed just a few minutes away from the temple. We went swimming at the hotel and then back to the room to watch the olympics. In the morning I went and did a session at the temple with our friends the Towes.
After the temple we went to Grants farm. Its basically a big zoo. They keep the budweiser clydesdales there so we got to see them. They are huge!
We rode a little tram throughout the farm to see all the animals.
Chandler was the only brave child to feed the goats a bottle. The goats were pretty jumpy!
These are our good friends Eric, Danyelle, Autumn, Haley, and Ella Towe. They are so great!

Swimming Fun!

The kids thought that their dad was the best ever to make the slide go into the pool
Chandler going down head first. They had so much fun!
They managed to get their dad in the pool with them. I was really tempted but I stayed in and cleaned (in silence).
Check out that white boy!! Hayden just isnt so sure about the whole grass thing. He stares at it like it is going to go away! 8-08

Kit Returns!

When we were back in Utah we had a major trauma moment. Aubrey supposedly had been taking a nap and when I went in to check on her a major catastrophe had happened. She had pulled the leg off of Kit when she was just changing her clothes. Oh what drama this adds to my life. Mallory was devastated since it is her doll. So thanks to the doll hospital we sent her in and 3 weeks later she returned. She came back in a hospital gown, bracelet, certificate of health signed by the doll Dr. and a balloon. Mallory was so happy and she waited by the front door all morning for the UPS truck to show up. For a future note....... we will be taking out a insurance policy on these things!!!!
