Aug phone pictures

It rained a lot this summer and one day I let myself not get stressed by a mess and let the kids play in the rain.  Jeffrey was napping.  Some days you just gotta let loose a little to keep these crazy boys happy.

Just a fun YW’s activity where the leaders were teamed up against the YW in some outside games.

Wilma called me and told me about a Lego exhibit at the county fair in Spanish Fork and asked if I wanted to bring the boys and meet her.  It was a total hit with these boys.  We didn’t really look at much else (expect maybe a few animals and an art exhibit) and most of the time was spent in the Lego area.  After a bit grandma bought the boys snow cones.

Grandma and Grandpa Murray were in town for just a few days.  They came to see our house and we went to Kneaders for dinner.  The next day we wanted to see them again so we drove up to Thelma’s house to chat for a little bit longer.

I know these pictures are blurry but I hurried and used my phone to try to get a picture.  I knew the moment wouldn’t last!  When I saw Jeffrey with this little train and pushing it on his knees, I was immediately reminded of Tyson doing the SAME thing in Indiana.

We went to Swiss Days and the boys got these super cool bow and arrow sets.  It took some getting use to but they are experts at them now.  Better than me!

First day of SCHOOL 2014-2015

Tyson was nervous but very excited to go to 1st grade!  He rode the bus in Kindergarten at his old school but this was his first time riding it in our new neighborhood.  He got A track which means he has to leave the house at 7:20 to catch the bus.  That’s early for a 6 year old (and for momma!)

I told Tyson I would wait for him on the porch after school.  I love these pictures of all the kids running home to tell all of us how their first day back to school went.

A few weeks later it was Andrew’s turn to start his first year of Preschool!

I’m not sure he knew what to think but he smiled for the camera and held my sign.  His school has him make a bag for class so he doesn’t use a backpack yet.

24th of July

We had a fun 24th of July with my family.  Mike and Em busted out the slip n slide.  Jeffrey was worried at first but ended up loving it.  He crawled down it and slipped a few times.  The boys were crazy and Madi was being helpful and protective to Jeffrey.

We did sparklers and small fireworks.  Andrew was a bit more calm on this day in comparison to the 4th of July.  Mom made sure to not get any fireworks that made loud popping noises.
