Hawaiian Dancing at the State Fair

Mekelle has been taking dance from my mom for 2 yrs, she is so graceful and seems to catch on very quick.
This is at the SLC State fair.

Carly... Our big Cheese!
Another side view, it must be getting late! This is Kenley and Mekelle on their first day of school. They started school at a brand new elementary, Buffalo Point. The school was not finished in time to start when the rest of the schools started so the girls got a couple of extra weeks of Summer vacation.
Mekelle is now in 3rd grade, and kenley has advanced to all day school in 1st grade. Her favorite part is getting to eat school lunch.

Carly only wanted to sit with Grandma and Grandpa.

Enjoying the great out doors with G-ma and G-pa

Our family went up to our Stake Camp grounds in Morgan with my mom and dad and Chandra and her family. We had a lot of fun roasting Marshmallows for our smor's and cooking our hot dogs over the fire. It is such a beautiful place, and so peaceful. There is nothing like being outside under the stars up in the mountains.

Baby # 5

If you don't know already, we are expecting our #5 baby. This came to us as quite a surprise, as it was not the plan for any time soon. Now that the shock has warn off and we know it is really happening we are thrilled beyond belief............actually that is Ammon who is thrilled beyond belief. Ammon prays every night that Heavenly Father will send him two baby brothers. He is soooo excited that he still has one more chance for another boy in the house. The girls are excited too but they are a little concerned that I have to stay a few days in the hospital when the baby is born. This pregnancy has been much different then the rest. I started showing very quickly and the morning sickness didn't just happen in the morning. It knocked me out for a good month and a half. I am excited to be feeling well again. Wow, another baby! We really are truly blessed!

Preschool Field Trip 10/07/08

Wow, It has been a while. I have had many requests to actually add something to my blog once in a while. I decided I need to take blogging 101, maybe that would help.



Today Ammon and I went on a field trip with his preschool to the Fire station and to a farm. We had a lot of fun. Ammon has been so excited about it for days and talked about it all day long. At the Farm we got to go on a hayride, go through a corn maze, see the animals, pick a pumpkin, smell and take home a freshly picked onion and carrot, and play on a lot of farm fun play toys.



I love that I am able to take time out to go on field trips with my kid and enjoy their special moments.
