Last week I made cookies! I know, I baked! I can, you know, I just don't do it very often, but I can. Last thursday I was having one of those "haven't worked out very good this week, might as well make some cookies" days! I had the little neighbor twins, Zoe and Eli, come over and we made cookies. It was really fun eating dough and watching the cookies bake, to the twins this was old hat, my kids were like, "you can eat the dough?" and "there is a light in the oven?". It was fun.

So, I was up at the outlets in Park City when I get a call from Carson. I had left the boys home to tend themselves just for a couple of hours. Well, he proceded to tell me that he and Cameron were goofing around and Cameron had knocked him in the mouth and his tooth was loose so he pulled it out! What? I know, we might have a Doctor in the making, or a professional wrestler.

they were both fighting for camera time!

Kindergarten!!!

Tyson started kindergarten this year and I, I mean, he is so excited! He was so ready to start. In fact I didn't know how ready until I dropped him off on the big first day preparing for a little emotion, by him of course, and clinging, maybe even having to spend the first few minutes with him in class and calm him down. He did NOT even look back to say good-bye. It was Reese who cried and wailed and wanted to stay with Tyson at school. He loves it!

Reese wouldn't leave Tyson's side.

We are so lucky that we live so close that Tyson can ride his bike or walk to school.

IT'S HERE!!!!

The first day of school!

It seems kind of early to start school. I'm not complaining, I'm just saying it seems early. We are starting over new again. New house, new neighborhood, new school, new friends.

Cameron was so excited about school he was up at 6:00 am! I even got up early, showered, dressed and was ready to go with the boys to walk to school. I thought they would want me to go on their first day just to make sure they knew where to go etc... well I thought wrong. Carson was very adamant about me going or not going with them. I guess they thought it would be embarrassing for their mom to take them to school. I saw other moms going, oh well.

Cameron age 10 5Th grade

Brave Carson

Carson, after a lot of coaxing and bribing, tried the wake board! You can see Sean in the water helping him. It only took Carson a couple of times to figure out how to get up. We only had a big board so if it looks like he is doing the spits, he is.

Spirit Lake, Wake boarding, and Garrett? ( i know! i didn't know he could do this either!)

Carson was baptized!

Carson was baptized and confirmed August 2ND. His birthday is June 22ND but we had to wait for a time that both sets of Grandparents could be around so Carson had a whole month plus to practice being good. He had to be dunked twice because a knee came up out of the water. Sean did a great job. I kept asking if he was going to mess up and say the prayers in Spanish. I was a little worried. We are so relieved you passed the Bishop's interview! Congratulations Cars!
