GO COUGARS!!!

We are loving BYU's football season this year. Mike has taught the kids the cougar fight song and the kids love to yell "First down!" after Mike says "That's another cougar..." Keep up the winning streak BYU!

The kids are in their "BYU pajamas" for the Oklahoma game last weekend.

Off to a Great Start

Alex had his first day of school today and he did great! He loved riding the bus, going to gym class, checking out his own library book, drinking from a juice pack and playing with the toys. His favorite part he told me was seeing his good friend Carter. We are happy that his first day went so well.

Moments before the bus came.

Mom and Dad are so proud.

Poppy came to see Alex off on his big day.

Finally...Alex has been dying to ride the bus for years! We were happy to see that a nice man from our church is his bus driver.

Bye...take good care of him.

A Little Piece of Heaven

One of my favorite places to visit in the whole wide world is my parent's home. Not only because it is the home I grew up in but also because it is BEAUTIFUL. My parents have done so many wonderful things to the property around the house and I love to visit and go on the trails and enjoy the wildlife. Here are a few photos from my last visit. The pictures don't even come close to the real thing.

A baby deer I ran into on my walk.

Can you find the Mama deer?

Some turkeys I also ran into while walking around.

The beautiful pond my Dad made.
