Life is full of surprises!: More summer fun!

What's new

Winter 2011
Christmas time.. fun time for our family. Our Christmas Elf arrived this year for the first time...a fun family tradition. Kapri is turning 11 in a few days. She is in the 5th grade. Ryann is 10 in the 4th grade and Taygen is 8 1/2 in the 3rd grade. They just keep growing.. time to slow it down kids!! ;o) We are slowly becoming certified with Foster Care. It is a slow process because they seem to be backed up on the home study part. We hope it will be enjoyable for our family and we learn a lot about giving and helping others.

Fall 2010
School started up ...Kapri is in 4th grade, Ryann is in 3rd and Taygen is in 2nd. I stay busy with volunteering in their classrooms and lots of after school homework. They all enjoy their teachers this year and are having fun. We bought a new puppy. She is a cocker/yorkie/pekingese.. and her name is Kia. We all have lots of fun with her.

Summer 2010
We have been getting involved in movies, commercials.. and anything that looks like fun that comes our way. All the kids enjoy the spotlight and making a little spending cash! Their mommy loves it too!

Spring 2010
We have finished the basement remodeling.. wow! That was a big accomplishment! Dustin did awesome and we are all enjoying all the new rooms that are finished! I love being able to enjoy the entire house! I am working part time now as a 2nd grade overload tech/teacher. I love it.. just enough time to keep me happy and not too much to take away from the family.

More summer fun!

Our favorite activity for the summer is boating. We go out onto the Utah Lake and meet Kathy and family. We anchor the boats and play at Sandy Beach. We also love camping but haven't been able to do any yet this summer. We do have two camping trips planned for the end of August.

I can't believe school is starting in 9 days. I will have all three kids in school. I guess I can look forward to lots of homework (for me!) and lots of school functions to attend. Taygen is so small but I think he is ready for Kindergarten. I get to look for things to do now for 2 1/2 hrs a day all by myself... poor me. Hee!
Kapri and I are in a Broadway Shows play. We have opening night this Friday, August 15th. Kapri is in the "Go Go Joseph" number and I am in Grease "We go together", "Go Go Joseph", and the Spamalot number "He is not yet dead". I get to play a munk. It should be a fun show to do. It is just one or two numbers from different broadway shows. I am glad it only runs for 5 nights with school starting up.
