My baby is going to school!!!!!

I never wanted this day to come! Zack's first day of Kindergarten was today. I was in great shape, they were all lining up in a line and then........... the teacher said to them to tell everyone goodbye. I then lost it, I ran over started kissing him all over his face and couldn't control myself, the tears started but I was able to hide it from everyone else just until I got to the playground and saw Kaden he ran over and asked if I was ok, I said No!!! and the flood gates opened, Kaden was in shock I think a little embarrased for me or him because his friends were around, but I don't think they saw, hopefully for his sake. I kind of was in a daze for the two hours without him by my side.

Congratulations! I am going to miss you and love you Zack!!!!

Good Luck in Kindergarten!!!!!

We had a Kindergarten luncheon over at Coleman's house, they were so excited they could barely eat their lunch then off we went to the first day!

First Day of school!!!!!

The first day of school was today and the kids are so excited but nervous, they made it through the day with flying colors and loved every minute. The first week of school is always so much fun, wearing all their new clothes and catching up with all their friends. Zack has another week so we are just having a fun week today we went to see a 3D movie at the Jordan Commons we had a blast, Zack loved being able to bring pizza in to watch the movie. I am going to miss the kids not being home but I love the routine.

My big 8th grader, I have a hard time realizing that I have one big enough to be in Jr. High school that only means I am getting older and I don't feel like it. I know people say that it goes fast and it does and I hate it, I love to watch them grow but I never want them to leave.

How cute are these kids. Shelby was up at 6:30 worrying about being late for school, (she goes to school not at 8:00 but 9:15) she wasn't going to be late. She is in 6th grade now and Kaden in 3rd. They came home loving school, Kaden met a couple new friends, (like always) he always has so many friends around him it is probably because he is so happy and nice all the time.

Being kids!

This morning I woke up to the "Football Game". Kaden and Zack decided to be football players today and so as usual they had to get in full uniform and go at all day long, they both got football pads for Christmas last year so they were all set up. Kaden wants to play tackle football this year so bad he can't stand it but because he is playing fall baseball we decided to just have him play flag football this year but he is just as excited to play that as anything else, anything to be doing any kind a sports. This was the funnest thing ever to watch because Zack was killing Kaden, but don't tell Kaden that but Zack is almost as big as Kaden. It could be because Kaden is just letting him win, that could be the truth that is how he is. There is nothing better in this world then watching your kids play together I am so lucky that mine like to play with each other all the time I hope that it lasts forever.

The Highland Fling!

This week was the Highland Fling as always this is like a vacation for the kids. The morning is the parade on Grandma Judy's lawn with doughnuts and alot of friends. This year Shelby was in the parade so we got to see one in the parade that is always fun she got to ride in a really nice boat and throw candy, is there anything better than that? The whole day is filled with fun from food to competitions and as always the fireman spray and also the concerts. We just hang out at Grandma Judy's and go across the street off and on all day long. Hunter and Shelby just hung with there friends and they would check in ever now and again and then the fireworks at night, they are right above our head. We look forward to the Fling every year!!!!!

Zack's 1st missing tooth

Thursday Zack lost his first tooth. I was at the Orthodontist with Hunter getting his braces off while Zack was at home losing his teeth, he asked Shelby to pull it and she was so excited to do so. He was so proud that he was so brave without one tear. Yes the tooth fairy came to visit I think that was what he was looking forward to the most. Good thing the other has already started growing in.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HUNTER!!!!

Hunter is 14 years old and that makes me feel old. I can't believe it has been 14 years since Hunter was just a baby in my arms and the stress I had to go through to bring him here, it seems like just last week. Hunter had a wonderful birthday it was a fun filled day at the Highland Fling, he went Golfing and just hung with his friends and doing whatever boys like to do. We had cake that night at the fireworks and everybody there sang to him. I hope he felt as special as we think he is. HAPPY BIRTHDAY HUNTER AND WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!

This picture was the day he got his braces off, don't they look good.

THE RACE TRACK!

We took the kids to the Larry H. Miller Racetrack. The kids loved it, we looked at all different kinds of cars and all the people that were there. They wanted to ride the race cars but the only thing that we brought was our debit card and the machine was down the whole time so they could'nt ride them so the next best thing was the hill climber trucks and we had enough cash for those, so off we went, they were a little disapointed but after the ride the other cars didn't exist. They thought it was even cooler that there were golf carts everywhere taking people to where they wanted to go, the thing I think will be the coolest is one of the ladies told me in a the next month "Patrick Demsey" will be racing his car, that will be the next time we will go out.

This was their favorite race-car "the Jelly Belly Car". They wished that they can ride in this car.
