SUMMER IS OVER??????.........WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well summer has come and summer has gone and oh what a summer we had! Conner started off with high adventure camp then onto BYU baseball camp and then a family trip to Lake Powell. Kailee continued her private tennis lessons and lots of beach and swimming! Jake and Crew had even more beach time and then a family trip to Palm Springs! Summer is way too short!! Although now that everyone is back in school it is nice to have a little less sand in the car and alot more structure in our lives!!!
We got to go see the play "WICKED" a couple of weeks ago with about 40 of our closest friends (thanks Tamara!) Our kids loved it!!! Well.....except for Jake who took a nice 2 hour nap! Although it went way too fast, we got to spend a lot of family time together and time with great friends!
Now we are moving on to High School.....Conner is on the football team. Kailee is the B.G.O.C. translation (big girl on campus) in 6th grade, Jake is in 3rd and also playing pop warner football and Crew our baby (he's 4) is starting another year of preschool next week!
I told Steve I feel so guilty when I go to bed at night realizing all I seem to say to Crew is "hurry honey" "Hurry buckle up" "Hurry...hop in the car" his little life is my back seat passenger always asking.... "are we going to the football field? "are we going to tennis lessons" "are we going to achievement days" "Is this scout day or mutual day? " "can we go to Coldstone??" But I have to say we do make it to the park regularly, we play a lot of football at home ,we play school (crew has learned to write his name, he does a lot of shaving (pretend with a pretend razor!) we have gone through a whole can of shaving cream this week!! along with an occasional lunch out and ice cream..... more often than not!!!!! I am trying to enjoy every single second I can even with all the craziness! My mom used to always tell me "enjoy your kids while they are young...it will go by way too fast!" I have to say days are turning to weeks and weeks to months!!!!! Life is certainly full but amazingly adventurous and I love every minute of it!!!

LOVE your cute summer pictures!! I was excited to see that you had updated!!! Miss you guys SOOOO much!! Love ya!
I fell asleep last night for some reason thinking about how it is almost 2010 and remembering how strange it seemed to be entering a new century. Now we're almost a decade into it! Barbara is right - time goes way too fast! Glad you're "smelling the roses" as you fly through life.
Hey D! It's sad to see summer go(it snowed here yesterday, on Kennedi's bday). Looks like you guys had a good one. Miss you.
