Second Grade


Brandon Started 2nd grade yesterday and he was SO excited, he was counting the days before 'the day' and then the night before he counted the hours to bedtime because he knew when he woke up he would get to start SECOND GRADE!!
He is growing up way to fast for me.

When his teacher (Mrs Hartley) asked him what his favorite subjects are, he said 'the playground and math'.  Could there be two more OPPOSITE subjects, haha! That is one thing I love about that boy....his total and complete honesty and his lack of concern for what other people think of his answer. I am so proud of him and how he is growing up.

Summer Fun


I realize it's bee too long since I've blogged, well, sorry ;-) life has been a little crazy since my last post.  I went to girls camp, which was something that consumed my life for months before hand, but was WELL worth all the long meetings and hard decisions.  Then as soon as that was over, we closed on our new house (pictures to come soon) and moved, I still feel like we are moving in, it has been a year and half since we moved to Utah and we now are officially PERMANENT!!!

So the reason for my blog.....I took the boys to Thanksgiving Point with one of my friends and her two girls.  We went to the farm they have there, they had such a blast

Carson and his 'smile'

My cute friend Rosanne and her Girls Mia and Alyssa

'Riding' Cow

Yes, that is Carson picking his nose. 

Brand new baby calf that was just born hours before we got there.

Petting a miniature horse.

Brandon had so much fun feeding the animals, he was really good at it.

Carson wasn't so sure about them eating out of his hand.

Waiting line for the pony ride, that cute little girl is Rosanne's daughter Alyssa.

Carson was so big and rode all by himself on a 'big' horse.

I think Brandon secretly wants to have a horse of his own, he LOVED being up there riding.

Carson feeding a brand new baby goat, he loved that!

In the 'dance hall' Alyssa was insistent that Carson dance with her ;-)

Brandon thought the little jail they had there was SO funny!

Rosanne's little Mia, isn't she just the cutest thing?!
