Timpanogos Storytelling Festival

Boston's school had their first Field trip today.  I figured i better go to this one, Because it might be a while before i can go and help with his class.   It was up Provo Canyon at the Timpanogos Storytelling Festival.  It was so Great, Beautiful weather,  The stories were incredible, then the kids got their sack lunches and ate at the Park. 

Here is mine and Jane's Group of kids

{please excuse the guy who took our picture... oh Boy!}

After the Festival, eating lunch at the Park...

Then Boston and I headed off to get his Haircut.   He is now So spoiled that he doesn't like me to cut his hair because when he goes here he gets a Scalp massage and a HOT towel on his face...So pretty much i do not pamper him, when he needs a Haircut!! 

 {Plus i am too lazy right now}

L-O-V-E this place...

Cory and I took the kids here last night with our friends the Morton's and LOVED it! Caryn had been talking it up for a while now. It is 100 %Frozen Yogurt and it has all the Good Cultures that is good for you, It is actually very Nutritious and Delicious!

I Highly Recommend it!!

Grandpa has been here...

My Dad and Madge have been staying at my house along with my Brother Darren and his family, and my kids have been in Heaven! Grandpa plays this super fun game with them called "Run Sheepy Run" It is Tradition (we used to play this when we were little) where the kids have to run from one side of the couch to the other without getting hit by him. Don't let this old man fool you, he will play and he will play Hard! Boston has been dying to play this with him all weekend so today we finally played!

Hayes was Hilarious. He didn't quite understand the game so instead he started Tackling Grandpa.

We also played a whole lot with our cousins. We went to the Pool, Played Football, Played Dart guns wars (in my house with the big kids) Golfed and then after it was Dark, they all went out to the Golf course with Glow in the dark Balls....They LOVED it!

Congratulations Jackie & Justin...

My Sweet little Niece Jackie just got Married on Friday! She has wanted to be Married in the Salt Lake Temple her whole life, so she had her Dream come true. It was an absolutely beautiful day.

This is the 2nd grandchild to be married. Her mom is my Sister Rachel, we had all but 1 cousin there to celebrate (Garrett is in the MTC) I still don't think i am old enough for these little Nieces and Nephews to be getting married already, UGH...It seems like Yesterday she was just little Jackie, Time goes by fast!
We had such a FABULOUS, long weekend of Festivities with all the Cousins. These kids are hilarious to be around and we LOVE every minute of it!

First day of "Pre School"

Today was Hayes & Olivia's First day of Pre school! They have been so excited to go and they LOVED it! They love their Teacher Mrs. Brown, and today they got to bring show- n- tell and show all the kids.
These two have totally grown up this summer. I can't believe how fast it goes by now, it seems like they were babies for so long.

After school when i picked them up, i asked if they loved their class today, and Olivia said "Mom, that was so much fun"!

First Day of School...

I can't believe he is in "3rd" grade already! This is Boston's first day of School at a Brand new School. He is so excited and has been bugging us since the First grade to Go to "Ivy hall Academy" with his Best buddy Chase. It is such a cute little school and we are so excited about all the new things he will be doing this year.

He woke up all by himself this morning and got his uniform on, bed made and was ready to go by 8:00.
I packed a Suprise in his Lunch today, and am excited for him to see it. He also wanted (his request) WHITE Bread for his Sandwich. haha
I am already missing him and hoping he has a Fun Day!
He knows quite a bit of the kids that are in his class already, so he should do Great!

Boston & Mrs. Allen

Last day of Summer Break!

After Gymnastics we went to "Kangaroo Zoo" where my little kids love to jump on all 0f these Blow up bouncers. Boston thought it was going to be really boring...BOY was he wrong!
We had our Cousin Savannah here visiting a few days before her family came out, so that was so fun for us!

Yesterday was our Full Last day of Summer Vacation for Boston. We went to The Pool at Riverside and NO One was there, it was so awesome! Boston and Savannah were jumping off the Diving boards with the Life guards. While Hayes and Olivia were just swimming in the Kiddie Pool all by themselves. It was so awesome!

Just Chillin by the Pool eating Popsicles...

Hayes Jumped off to Tasha off of the Low dive

Carson kept jumping and Jumping...Little Dare Devil!

Gymnastics

These two are finally old enough for Gymnastics! Our little cousin Carson comes with us and now they get to have their own class, instead of watching Boston do it!
They LOVED it and had such a fun time. Their favorite part was the Rings!! They all held on really well, while they were just giggling like crazy!
They also loved the Trampolines and Foam Pit. Who wouldn't , i was half tempted to jump into that Foam pit 9 mo. Pregnant! ;)

Jump on it...

This morning i went to take the kids to Gymnastics, but their coach forgot some last minute issues & couldn't fit them in. They were a little bummed out about it, especially Olivia. Their Coach's name is "Jesse" and she was so excited, and Hayes said he wanted his coach to be "Woody"! haha
Instead we went to "Jump on it" so they could get some sort of Gymnastics in. We met our cute little Cousin Carson there too and the kids had a Blast! Boston was doing Back handsprings, Back Flips etc... He is really fun to watch on the Tramp.

5 more days of Summer...

Boston's Backflip

Charlee & Olivia

Olivia & Hayes Jumping together

Then we were off to The last day of Rock climbing camp for Boston. He got to take Charlee {his cousin} with him, and they had so much fun. When i got there to pick them up Boston had a Helmet on and was climbing so High, so when he let go he Swung so far, it was so cool!

Guess who has Braces?

oh yah! Boston just got them on yesterday. Our Orthodontist "Dr Fairbanks"{who is seriously amazing} does this new thing where he puts just 4 braces on kids who are around 8 & 9 and they wear them for about 6-9 months, to help bring down the first four teeth before the K9 teeth come in. So we are on Phase 1 and Don't let him fool you...He is loving it! They showed him how to brush his teeth and gave him all this stuff and he has seriously brushed like 6 times today!

Rock Climbing Camp...

This has been Boston's Favorite Camp all Summer! It is 4 days for 4 hours at the "Rock Quarry". He ROCKS at it, and at the end of the day they let the kids do the "King Swing" where you swing from the Top Floor and hang on to the Rocks and Start Climbing. They did Obstacle Courses, Learned how to do the Knots and Balaying (sp?)

And of course Hayes & Olivia had to try it out when we would pick him up daily.

and on his last day they had a Pizza Party! Charlee went to camp the last day with him too
