Kindergarten



This week Logan started kindergarten. This is the day I have been dreading since he was born. But he was AWESOME, he could not have been more ready (even if I wasn't).

On the first day they made pirate hats and learned all the new rules. Logan was also happy to discover that 2 of his friends from pre-school were in his class. He was assigned to the green table (with all girls he informed me) and found his home base (His chair, complete with name tag). He informed me that kindergarten was WAY funner than pre-school. We celebrated after with a trip to McDonalds with his good friend Easton who also started kindergarten that day at a different school.

On the second day he was even selected to be the first "Lucky Duck" of the year. This is a very prestigious honor in the kindergarten world I have come to understand. He was the teachers special helper for the day. He got to be the line leader, turn the lights on and off when they went to recess and change the date on the calendar to name a few. When he came out of class I said "Hey Bud how was school?" and he replied "Today don't call me Bud, call me Lucky Duck!". He was so proud.

A VERY Proud Mom.


This is the door for kindergarten and 1st grade only. Very exclusive.

We got a BOAT!!!!!!!



Ok, I know it was been FOREVER since I last posted, I am sure you all are just devastated. Now for the great news (if you haven't heard), WE GOT A BOAT!!!!!!! It is a 2005 18.5' Bayliner.

I am so excited I could just scream, actually I did. Scott and I have been looking for a long time and finally one that meet all of our requirements.

We took it out this past weekend for the first time and had a blast. We went to Strawberry Reservoir with our good friends the Palmers. Scott and Kevin wake-boarded, I skied, the kids jumped off the swim deck about a million times, Logan caught a fish, we trapped a ton of crayfish, saw deer and just had an all around great time.

I am so glad that we will be able to give our kids some of the awesome memories that I have of my childhood. We have already started planning a trip to Lake Powell in September. YAH!!!!
