Fishing! Fishing! Fishing!

Jake has been asking me to take him fishing all summer. So we finally went fishing and Jake and Sydney loved it. Jake was patient and waited and waited for a fish. Sydney just enjoyed being outside and holding her fishing pole. We did not catch a fish, but the kids had a great time.

First day of Preschool and Little Gym

On August 25th Sydney started terrific tots at The Little Gym. She is on her own 2 days a week and is loving it very much. She is so excited and says "I big cause I go to school." She also tells me what snack they have had and she has learned many songs with their hand signals. When I come to pick her up she hides behind the door and then jumps out and says, "I hide from you mom, again." It is so fun to see her grow and see how she loves this experience. Jake started his second year of preschool at Corner Canyon Academy. He goes three days a week and loves every minute of it. We car pool with his friend Ace Turley and Ace is also in his class. They love to play together and they say the funniest things on the way to school. Yesterday they were talking about the animals they saw at the zoo and making animals noises. Jake is learning his sounds and is learning how to blend letters. He has a great memory and loves his dad to tell him bedtime stories.

California here we come!!!

The month of July was a crazy month for us. We went to Bear Lake for about 2 weeks and then to California for 10 days. We had a blast. Our little family attempted the 12 hour drive and we actually had a great time. We stopped in St. George for a night and then spent a night in Las Vegas at Circus Circus the kids loved it. Then we drove on to California for the week. We went to the beach, Lego Land, shopping and relaxed by the pool. It was great!!
