Where did October go?

It's almost Halloween? Where did October go? Tons of stuff to update for the month, but I'm supposed to be doing homework, so I'll have to do it between studying. My kids are adorable. I got back their school pics this month. I have to scan in Kat's, but here are my other kids.

School is still really busy. I can't wait for this semester to end. I'm still working full time, but my hours have changed. I now work 6-3, ugh. I am not a morning person, but it's nice to be off early. More update to come...

September... already!

I have some of the cutest and coolest pictures to post... but I have not the time. Oh well, soon? I can't believe it's September already. The kids are back to school and so am I. The new classes are going to keep me busy.

We went to the Fort Bridger Rendezvous in Wyoming, as we do every year. I got to see my brother and sister-in-law, that was cool. Oh, and my cousin that I haven't seen in almost 2 decades! That was awesome. The kids had a blast!

Monday I start teaching my new class... the 4s. I'm excited. I need to go shopping for some supplies. YAY!!!

Time is blowing by!

I can't believe it's almost SEPTEMBER!! Where did this year go?! Kat is four now. She's playing soccer, it's about the cutest thing ever!


The first day of school has come and gone... We had our traditional french toast breakfast. YUM!!!!


Kat had her first experience at Lagoon. She is an adrenaline junkie! She even went on some big rides. Here she is on the Tidal Wave:


All in all, it was a great summer. Fall semester at Utah State started Monday, so life is about to get rough again. It's fun so far though.

Well, we're off to rendezvous, in Fort Bridger Wy. It's another tradition. I'll post pics later.

My old-fashioned kids...

The school did these... Love them!! I'll preface this with they had no clothes for Thomas... He's 5'8" and 190 lbs. I didn't realize this in advance of course, but he'd picked out a shirt that worked and wore his jeans. Great foresight!! Oh, and I wish Byron's eyes weren't bugging out in the last shot.

And the finals grades are...

Music A
Math 1050 A
Humanities A
Parenting A
Physics A- (doh!)

Whatcha gonna do? Makes my overall GPA 3.95. Not too bad for a working mom of 4 doing school full time. I'm looking forward to the next semester. Each one gets me closer and closer to my goal of teaching.

We got back last night at 9pm from our 1300 mile Harley trip. I'm a bit beaten up and sunburnt, but it was awesome. I'll post pics of the 3 day affair later, I'm still really tired.
