September update

Luke's School picture. Cutie!
Silly Bands: We went to 5 stores to find silly bands, the new craze.


Luke is doing great in school. He thinks chapter books are so cool.
He was the student of the week. He brought his robot to share and pictures of his lego creations and his new dog. He said he wants to be a demolition man when he grows up.

Gabe LOVES preschool. He is so excited about learning.

He looked at a pink dora backpack, but luckily decided on Thomas the train.
He is excited about writing his name.
In Gabe's "All about me" book it says he is 41 inches tall, 36.5 lbs, his favorite Food:fish (not true), Color: Blue, Animal: Dragon, and Holiday: Halloween
Clark is 21 months

Clark is holding his new baby cousin. That's 3 new cousins this year.

This is how Clark felt about everyone going to school. sad.

Ben made it to a BYU game with my dad and brother-in-law.

To bad they are having such a bad year.

Hokie Weekend

In August, We went to the COOLEST place for a families gathering. It's a farm off the Raft River Exit. They have made 2 huge water slides going down the front lawn. We had a great time!

Clark loves his cousin baby B. His right ear is still healing from the little cyst removal surgery he had. You can see how it was swollen and stuck out.

September Updates

Summer is coming to an end.
Clark is 20 months, but is often mistaken for a 3 year old. He is a talker. Must sleep with at least 5 books in his bed. Love dancing to music.

Gabe has graduated to a bigger bike. His loves it. He starts preschool this week. yeah!


Luke started 1st grade. Lunch at school now. His favorite lunch is egg salad sandwiches, yogurt, chocolate milk. We miss him at home sometimes, but he was ready to go. His reading has boomed.

We went camping. The kids had a blast in the dirt. I almost went crazy trying to keep the out of the fire. Pyros!
My sister Becky and her husband Doug had their second little boy, Daxton, last month. Gabe and I went down for a few days to help. He is such a sweet baby and his big brother was doing great!
