So my camera broke. Cole the future photographer was capturing memories in Sunriver and dropped it. Say goodbye to camera. What I didn't realize was that it was still working enough to get my pictures off of it. Joy! Now I can update the last 2 months of our lives. As I look at these pictures I am trying to remember the stories that accompany them. Work with me...
I forgot that back in late July we took the kids to the Circus! We got free suite tickets (thank you Auntie Karla!) and took the kids. They lasted a little while...long enough for Shawn to spend around $50 for drinks and cotton candy. Here are the kids and I enjoying the show, sorry for the close up!
Next we headed off for our annual trip to Sunriver. Kids ages 5 1/2, 5, 3 1/2, 3, 2 1/2, 2, 1 1/2. Eeek! It was a crazy good time! Highlights included naked hot tubbing for the kids, bikes rides, trips to Goodies for ice cream, long days at the pool, watching Michael John perform and Rock Band performances after the kiddos went to bed while we ate Kristie's amazing popcorn and drank Ryan's yummy drinks!
When we got back it was time for Miss K's first day of "school!" She is enjoying 2 days a week at Risen Savior (where Cole goes 3 days a week). She is having so much fun making new friends and learning at school! Here she is on her first day, getting ready to head out the door. Spilled water on her dress while brushing her teeth, oops!
I was having one of those days in early August. Just a day where I was feeling sad about things. I decided I needed a pick me up and what better to do that than bringing Christmas to August? So that's what we did! We turned on Christmas music...put on our holiday baking aprons and the kids and I made Christmas cookies! It was so fun and just what I needed to lift my spirits.
