let's just say we had a rocky start..

Beautiful views

We had such a relaxing and peaceful day hiking Zion and tubing down the river...

The kids all did great, although some of the adults did struggle getting their tubes un-stuck, in places, where the water was shallow. next year we will have to plan it for earlier. It's always fun to hang out with family though.

Well Summer sure doesn't last as long as it used to, that's for sure! I can't believe it's already time to send the kids back to school. I'm sorry for my lack of posting over the summer.

It was not an easy going summer... As most of you know we moved. We are loving the new house, and are keeping pretty busy with the kids back in school. Remy is loving his new school, he has 7 different classes, his favorite subject so far is science. He is also taking percussion in band. sOooo with the holidays quickly approaching I will TRY to keep up on posting , but I can't make any promises...

{Sunday Drive}

It's been a while since I posted anything on here, so I thought I'd share a few pictures we just took on a drive up to Springdale. It's a beautiful drive... we made sure to stop along the way, and smell the flowers.

{Piano Recital}

Gabby had her very first piano recital, and got to play on a big beautiful Grand Piano, she did a really good job, she did a lot of practicing and it really payed off. We are all so proud of her.

{Easter BBQ}

Aunt Lhasa planned a super fun Easter bbq with all sorts of fun stuff for the kiddos, they had a ton of fun and LOVED the treasure hunt through the trees behind her house.

{Hershey Track Meet}

This year Remy won first place in the 400 meter. He was on the inside lane, but he quickly caught up with the other racers... one by one he passed them all up and once he was in the lead kept looking to the side to make sure no one was gaining on him, Alexis was catching up quick, so just near the end Remy kicked it up a notch and crossed the finish line first!! way to go Rem!

Gabby also particapated in 3 races, the 100 Meter , 200 Meter and The Relay Race.

This was her first year, she did great!!
