Back to School


Well Bryson and Caitlin are back to school already!! That break went by way too fast. Bryson is now in 3rd grade and Caitlin is in 1st. They were excited to get back into the school Groove again and see all of their school friends. Caitlin was mostly excited to try on all of her new school clothes the night before, and was so excited to be able to start wearing all of the clothes that she has been yearning to wear.

Pups Update


The little pups are now 4 1/2 weeks old and they have tripled in size. They are each weighing almost 2 pounds (which is A LOT considering they weighed 1/2 LB at birth) They are learning how to walk, and have both gotten a few teeth. The kids have named the pups PIP and GUS. Gus is for the fat mouse on Cinderella because this puppy is Clearly fatter than the other. They also call the other one Pip because its off Enchanted. Dont ask me why they have to name them after movies.....These little pups are so darn ADORABLE. We will be sad when its time to sell them.

SOLD!!!

ITS A MIRACLE..WE SOLD OUR HOUSE!!!! Okay so maybe it is not a miracle...but it feels like one. We have been trying to sell our house for a long time now, and really were having no success (THANKS TO THE FORECLOSURES IN THE AREA up 600%) It was a very popular house on the market, so we did get 7 offers on the home....the only problem was they were all low ball offers. Seeing how we were not desperate to sell we decided to hold off on the offers...for a better one of course. We were very pleased with the offer of FULL PRICE, and now we are able to start house hunting here in layton.

Family Campout at ROCKPORT







This year we were able to go to Rockport Dam with Mikes Family for a family get-together. This was GREAT for us because it was the only time this year we have gotten out our BOAT.... We had a campground big enough for all 13 families that attended. We went up on friday....making the much needed stop in park city to do a little shopping at the outlets. Then we headed off to find rockport. Friday was a little windy so we didnt get the boat in the water...Saturday was even more Windy, but it was our only day to do some boating....So we had to put up with all of the wind. Pretty much the tube was the only sport everyone was able to do...thanks to the huge waves. Saturday evening we were able to take the kids to do a little fishing and bryson caught a Craw Fish. I was totally grossed out...It looked like a CRAB, nobody wants to swim with crabs, let alone fish that look like crabs. Sunday we drove home, and enjoyed our much needed bubble baths.
