School Year

We have started the school year very quietly which is the way I like it.

Cecilia is now in seventh grade and decided to try out for softball. She practiced for several weeks and gave it her best shot but didn't make the cut. She is fine with it as she has already decided to try out for the Robotics team we will wait and see how that goes.
Holly is now in third grade and she loves her teacher. She is taking jazz and tumbling lessons and likes being one of the older kids at the bus stop.




Maggie is sad that her sisters are off at school and she doesn't get to go. She did just start preschool that a group of moms in the church has put together, I took the first couple of weeks and she is loving it. She has been going around finding the letter A but she is sad at the same time because we didn't start with the letter M, which is her favorite letter.

Second part of our trip at a glance....
We spent four days in SLC visiting my parents and college friends. We had a lot of fun catching up with friends and watching our girls play with thier children and of course having to deal with Maggie and Holly wanting to move closer so they can play with thier new friends more. We took the girls to the Days of 47 parade so they can say they had been there done that . They all thought it was a little to long and they didn't need to see it again.
Our last part of our trip we headed up to Meridian ID to visit with Mikes parents. The girls got to go white water rafting for the first time and they loved it, they wanted to go again and again. Mike and I also were able to visit the Boise Temple and were able to family names which was beautiful. We had a great family vaction and thank all our family and friends who let us stay at their homes and putting up with us.
