Camping

I think one of our most favorite family activities is camping together.  It's so much fun and it's a time to sit back and let boys be boys by playing in the dirt, finding bugs and exploring.  I love to watch their amazement and wonder for new things.  I love being in the outdoor! Here we are at the Timpooneke campground

I had to post this picture of Nolan for Aunt Jessica...she will appreciate this face :)

 A chipmunk got into our car and it took some time and patience to get him out! I was scared he was never going to come out

Image
 Love these boys of mine!

First Day of Preschool

Today was Nolans first day of preschool.  I may have shed a few tears.  Not because he will be gone but because he is getting older and time is going so quickly.  I love this little man with all of my heart

Boating Utah Lake

Nicks Dad thought it would be fun to take out his Dads old boat.  This boat was OLD and all the equipment that came with it...But we had sooo much fun and I can only hope that my kids will have more experiences on a boat like I did growing up.  I have so many great memories of boating.  I think its a great family bonding activity.  Nick wasn't able to come on this boating trip, he was working!

Soccer

Nolan played on a soccer team and I don't know if he was more interested in the game of soccer or the bugs he found on the field along the way.
