Picture day!

First day of preschool

Noah has been wating for this day for a long time. Every time Easten would get on the bus to go to preschool last year, Noah would ask when it would be his turn. Today he finally gets to go and he is thrilled. The preschool here is really an awesome deal. First of all it's free, can't beat that! The bus stops right in front of our house and it's only preschool kids, they feed the kids lunch, keep them for about 4 hours and they get to socialize with kids their age. So glad Easten got to go, they really worked on his speech with him and he needed that interaction before starting kindergarten.

The first day of school

School has finally started! I'm not sure who was more excited, probably me. I love my kiddos and we had a good summer but I also love to wave to them as they get on the bus. : ) Abbie is a busy girl and she is in constant need of something to do, so school is perfect for her. Easten was excited to get to go to Abbie's school this year and ride on her bus. Abbie is in third grade with Ms. Franklin and Easten is in kindergarten and has Ms. Greenwade. They both love school and are doing really well.

Baseball/Softball

Abbie played baseball this year and was the only girl on her team. She had the option of playing on a girl's team but she wanted to play with her cousins. She did really well, she's a good batter and she's fast. She even tripped and fell once while running the bases and she still got up and made it home. Her team was really good this year and they got second place in the tournament. It's always fun to get a trophy!

Abbie's baptism

 Katie and Abbie

 Katelynn and Bella

 Colton and Noah

I can't believe I have a child old enough to be baptized, time is really flying. Abbie was baptized with her good friend Katie Parsons (Noel Bloomfield's daughter) and her cousin Kristoffer. It was really a special day for her. Her dress was so pretty, she loved it. She's been looking foward to this day for a long time. So grateful for the gospel in our lives and a worthy priesthood holder in our home.

Abbie is 8!

I can't believe how old Abbie is. She is my primpy girl. Always trying to look her best. She is really smart and is always on the honor roll. She is really liking the Harry Potter books and movies right now, even though I'm still not sure how age appropriate some of those movies are for her age. Abbie is pretty good at soccer and softball. She was on a boys team for softball this year and out did a lot of the boys, she is really fast. She is a big help to me with her siblings and around the house. We love her. Happy Birthday!

Noah is 4!!!!

My little Noah just turned 4! He is a very sweet and tender hearted boy, he has the personality of his daddy. Noah loves to do anything with his dad, very much a daddy's boy. He really loves to shoot his bow and he is pretty good at it. He has felt really left out this year, both of his older siblings are in school and they both played soccer and softball which he is too young for. But next year will be different, he will get to do all of those things. Happy Birthday Mr. Noah!
