Ogden Temple Open House and Planes!

Saturday was such a fabulous day!

We were able to go with my family to the Ogden Utah Temple Open House.  I love temples. It just always feels so good, and so right to be there. It was so beautiful, and peaceful. 








After the temple we enjoyed a yummy pizza lunch at the park and then headed to Hill Air Force Base Museum!
It was so fun to have Grandpa share a tiny bit of his vast knowledge of Airplanes with us!

Cambridge was in heaven.  He has been super obsessed with Airplanes and Helicopters lately!

One of the highlights was one of the volunteers who actually flew the SR-71!  So neat to hear more about this unbelievably fast airplane, and his experiences.

The kids loved the coloring corner!

If you have never been to Hill Air Force Base Museum I highly recommend it!!  Such a fun day with the family!!

Timpanogos Storytelling Festival!

On August 29th we were able to go to part of the storytelling festival!  Jeremy recieved tickets from work!  It was way better then either of us imagined.  We were sad when Cambridge had had enough and we had to leave.  :(  Fun while it lasted!


Summer is Ending, Football is Begining

The kids were excited for the 1st Utes Football game of the season.  (I really need to get them BYU shirts...)

Jeremy was so excited that he stayed home to listen to it on the radio and me and the Boston and Hadley went to a little car show in our town!  It was super fun, and the kids loved getting free balloons, face painting, and going out for a fancy cupcake after!  Sad to see summer coming to an end...

Mom's Birthday at the Bee's Game

On Monday night we celebrated my Mom's birthday by going to the Bee's game together!  It was so much fun!!

The gang!

We even made the birthday girl ride the train!

What a cutie!

Beautiful night celebrating a beautiful person inside and out!

It's nights like these that the empty chair is just so noticeable.  I miss my Natalia.  She always loved family gatherings.

1st Week Back to School = Party Time??

Well School might have started but summer isn't over yet!!
Tuesday afternoon we headed out to Thanksgiving Point to enjoy there 2 dollar Tuesdays.  The only time I can afford to go there!

The kids had a royal blast at the Dinosaur Museum




It wasn't to crowded and we were able to really enjoy it!  (Note to self: Cambridge is now a BIG kid. Don't bring the stroller or you will be pushing nothing around in it...)

Then we headed over to the new museum to see how long the line was.... surprisingly there was no line.  So we decided to forget dinner and PARTY some more! (My poor kids, they have a crazy mother!)  Although there was no line to get in... it was a ZOO inside.  WAY TO MANY PEOPLE!


I was still excited to see what was inside and outside, and get a taste of it.  The kids had a blast despite the crowds.  My FAVORITE thing was the percussion room.  SO COOL!!  Finally I let my kids go home and eat and sleep.


On Wednesday my dear friend Amy came into town!  She invited us to her hotel for some lunch and swimming!  It was SO GOOD to catch up with her and finally meet her little guy Boji!  I have missed our Cold Stone dates so much!

Thursday- We had a BBQ with Jeremy's friend from Kindergarten!  We love getting together with him and his family!  The kids played great together and we of course enjoyed talk talk talking!  (No pictures.  What was I thinking...)
 
Friday us and my friends kids I was watching met up with my Mom, Logan, and Mason for some fun at Trafalga!  Rock Climbing

Water Boats 

Rides

and poor Cambridge to little to do almost anything, but big enough to want to!

Friday night was Jeremy's 1st ever work party that families were invited too!  It was up a canyon in Spanish Fork and it was beautiful and so fun, but sprinkled rain the entire time!  I didn't take any pictures, but luckily Jeremy's co-worker did!  The kids had a blats and a half on the rope swing... Jeremy and I of course had to take a turn too!  
Saturday night we went to our 3rd BBQ in 3 days at the Henriksen's House!  The food was delicious and the kids had a blast in their amazing backyard... especially on the zipline! (Seriously I don't know what happened this week but I just kept forgetting the pictures at the BBQ's!  I think I was just relaxing and enjoying myself to much!  Jeremy snapped this one of our Cambridge with his roasting stick.  He is obsessed with campfires!  He LOVES them like his Grandma and Mommy!)
Sunday was our Extended FHE at my parents house!  Always delicious food and an uplifting message!  The kids put on a little show for us... FROZEN in case you can't tell!  It was so funny!  I love how these cousins love to play together!
We also celebrated mine and my Mom's August birthdays!

What a week.  Started school and fit all of that in.... yup.  We were all really tired!!!

The New Place


The best part about our new home is the area is FLAT!  It is fantastic for the kids biking and riding their scooters!  They are in heaven!  We love being away from the mountain because our internet works way better, and our we get more then one channel on our TV!  Pretty exciting right?  We are still terribly missing our old neighbors and friends though!

Golden moment.  Boston reading to Hadley without being asked... Sibling love!

Jeremy sent me this picture of our "Cool Kids" riding to school!  Jeremy takes them to school on his way to work!

Back to School!!

Summer went by WAY to fast I was NOT ready to send these kiddos off to school!

They on the other hand were excited and ready!



Is my baby girl really big enough for Kindergarten?  AHHH!!!

Boston was so excited to tell Hadley EVERYTHING about their school.

Off she goes like she owns the place.  Completely confident and secure.  Leaving me to help a poor mother who was sobbing...

Boston so excited to be back with all of his friends!

When Hadley got home we had to take another picture of her, because not she had her special tie!  She LOVED her 1st day.  She said it was AWESOME!!

When Boston finally came home we celebrated with Peanut Butter Bars, and Carmel Brownies!
