Updates on Clifton -
The kids had there back to school night and he got to meet his teacher for the year (well till we leave) and he is great.  We have heard so many fun tings about him and I think Clifton will enjoy having him for a little.  AND their 4th grade field trip will happen before we move to Texas.  Clifton is super excited.

Updates on McKay -
She got to meet her teacher too and we are excited to try out Montessori.  I actually think it will be a great fit, we will have to see hoe it goes while we are here and then look into it in Texas.

Updates on Stanley -
Also had a school open house and got to meet his teacher.  He seems very excited to start preschool.  Hopefully it goes well and he can learn to be in a classroom setting.

Updates on Hazen -
Practicing using a spoon.

Success!

We did it!  The house is picture and show ready!  Wednesday they came and took pictures and it was kind of an emotional day.  The house looked beautiful.  I just love this home, I hope we find someone who loves it as much as I do.  And my deer ;)

When you forget their is wet paint and lean against the wall.  Doh!

Since we got the house ready, we could actually get out and play a little bit more.

A trip with lots of friends to Point No Point.  This was the perfect summer day!

Cousin Charlie and Aunt Tracie came up to visit. It will be sad to be so far away from cousins, but it will make the time sweeter when we do get together.

Cuties!

Splash pad fun!

Love their relationship.  Clifton loves his little Hazen very much.

Then Thursday we planned a trip to Wild Waves with our favorite people.  Alex ended up staying home sick a couple days with Strep Throat and I was able to leave Hazen home with him.  It made it a lot easier to play with the kids.  And Stanley is tall enough to go on the slides!

The sun decided to shine when we played in the water and turned out to be perfect.

It sprinkled on our way to Wild Waves and was chilly so we rode rides the first part of the morning.
Then to rained good on our way home.  We got super lucky with the weather and could'nt be happier with how the trip turned out.

Saturday morning was our Open House.  We packed up and planned to spend the day out and about.  First the Primary Water Party.

Then we headed to the State Fair.

We explored the animal and plant barns, did all the free activities, then played some games and won some stuffed animals.

Then that night we had a birthday party!

Party animal!  Super busy day and lots of great memories made.  The open house was busy and had lot of interest but no offers.

Sunday Bakeday (or more like decorate day)...  Bake to School Pencils!
