{Timp Fall Hike}

What are you supposed to do when the whole school district is out of school,

but you charter school isn't?! Take the day off too!

We decided to hike up to Timpanogos Falls! It was such a beautiful hike and really was the perfect hike for the three little.

We loved playing hooky today in the beautiful Utah mountains and really loved being with Bryn and Holly! Thanks for the fun day guys!!

{Midway Getaway}

My heart feels so full and grateful after a week with our favorite people!

Thanks to my Mom and Dad we were able to spend a beautiful week in Midway. 

Kristin and Chad came to town and we had a blast! 

These cousins love being together!

Its was so fun to be up in the mountains with all the colors changing and Fall in full swing...

Sunday was Chad's birthday.

We enjoyed watching conference and beautiful midway all together.

Our condo was just across the street from the Zermatt, so we were able go enjoy all of their fun activities!

It was such a beautiful week and we loved every minute!!

{Happy October}

It's really October!! And the first thing on our agenda is to go pick out our pumpkins!

Love these boys and their excitement for holidays!

{September Fun}

We have been loving September!!

Lunches at Ashie's school...

Tuesday's kids eat free at Rumbi's...

The most perfect warm weather...

And the boys BOTH learned to ride their bikes with NO training wheels!!

The church parking lot made for a nice flat spot. Ashton got the hang of it the first day and after the weekend was over Jude had it down too!! 

Oh September we're kinda in love with you!!

{Byu Triple Crown}

Ashton ran his first •mile race• today! He joined the running club at the beginning of the school year and they invited all the kids to compete in BYU's Triple Crown mile race.

He was such a trooper, after getting tripped and falling at the starting line. He just jumped up (now in the very back of the group) and went for it! Finishing 32nd out of 67 other kids!

He was a lucky boy to have the best cheering squad waiting for him at the finish line!! His reaction to the signs was to die for - "Awww guuyys I love them!"

This cute number 51 totally has my heart!! So proud of you snuggle bug!

{First Day of First Grade}

Well here we are-- the first day of first grade. It's hard to believe you won't be here all day with me. You've been my sidekick the last 7 years and it's going to take a lot of adjusting to get use to this all day school thing. I'm so excited to watch you soar, discover, and grow this year. I love you snuggle bug!

Go and Fly my little bird. Fly.
