Back To School

The first day of school is always exciting! The older girls have been so anxious to get back into the school routine again...oh wait, that's me!:) I am always glad when school gets out, but by the end of the summer, boy, am I ready for it to start again. They were so happy to go this morning. I went to the school to make sure they knew where they were going. As I was leaving, sweet Karley came running up to me in tears saying she is going to MISS me. Broke my heart in two! I will definitely miss their help and company at home...it's going to be quiet. They are ready to learn! I know they will work hard and be good students. We look forward to a great school year!

Karley is in 3rd grade and has Ms. Durfee. She has such a good attitude. She is already planning on being the "class clown". She is definitely one funny girl!

Kynlee is in 5th grade and got the teacher she wanted, Mr. Dias. Matthew had him a couple of years ago and loved him. She is so excited that I am going to be the Room Mom...yay me!

I love these girls! They are as sweet as they look!

Gotta love the bus when it stops right out front!

You Put A Smile On My Face With The Funny Things You Say

Kenzie got dressed for Kindergarten and she put on a turtle neck. When I asked how she wanted me to do her hair, she insisted I did it like a turtle's!:)

When Kynlee was just 5 years old, she had a friend named Sam. He was over playing one day, and when I asked her what kind of sandwich she wanted she said, "I want Sam...I mean ham!"

Matthew really has his heart set on playing in the NBA. He knows that they play games on Sundays, so his solution to making it to church and taking the sacrament is, "I will just ask my Ward if they can always meet at the early block, and I'll repent on the airplane if it is an away game!"

Mom: "Deep down I don't think it is a good idea."

Karley: "In your feet?"

Kenzie is a polite little girl. I overheard her talking in her sleep one night saying, "No thanks." She even uses her manners while dreaming.

Karley found one of her toys that had been broken and said, "Whoever did this is going to pay the bill!"

Driving over the Glen Canyon Dam on our way down to AZ, Kynlee said, "The beavers must have worked hard on this one!"

When Matthew was 2 yrs. old, we went to the airport to pick Matt up from a work trip. Matthew was looking out the window, watching the airplanes take-off and said, "Look Mom! That airplane is doing a pop-a-wheelie!"

Kenzie likes to pinch our cheeks and say, "You chubby cheeks." One day I had her in the shower with me and she pinched my behind and said, "You chubby butt!"
