It Happened the First Week in September.....

 So here are some photos to update our little happenings, as we finally bit the bullet and bought another camera (praying we do not lose/break this one!)

My boys love to be silly before bedtime. I think bedtime is one of my favorite times of the day. Mike is home, I am home, and of course Collin and Jacob are there too. The boys are clean (and smell so good!) dinner is over, and we get to read lots of books and play horsey with Daddy too!

Last week, Mike sent me up to Park City to spend some time with my sisters and Mom (and Suzie and Cody too!) It was honestly so much fun! We headed up to Park City, ate at the best Italian restaurant, and enjoyed the beauty of this time of year (the leaves change a bit earlier then ours do as Park City is at a higher altitude.) We did pedicures and manicures, while listening to my mom snore softly, taking us back to the days when Megan used to let us come into her room and play. We laughed so much, and were quite tired in the morning when we woke up.

See how pretty???

We woke up the next morning, pretty early, and hit Swiss Days. There are so many vendors, so many fun ideas, and some pretty decent food to boot. 

I look forward to Swiss Days each year, as it is just a rare fun moment where Utah puts on an actual craft-show, with the delicious foods to go right along with it.

Next came Labor Day, which was spent with my side, as Mike had to work. It was just a long day. I think I was still tired from my trip, plus I do not like celebrating holidays without Mike (something we have had to do since having kids.) 

I only took the first picture, and I actually am not sure who took the other two, but I love how cute and sweet little Suzie is! She is such a joy to all of us.

And to round out the first few days of September, Collin started joy-school (neighborhood run pre-school, where six moms (including myself) all take turns doing pre-school, two days a week, for an hour and a half. So we took some second-day (the camera was left at my mom's the first day) pictures. Collin is such a trooper. It's a wonder that first children do so well, as they are the guinea pigs. Collin is such a funny kid, and although has his moments, is really a big sweetheart. (And please ignore the dirty carpet, it is already scheduled to be clean and hopefully replaced in the near future!)
