First Day of school

Amber was pretty excited her name tag for her locker was pink, cause she was all in pink too (even her nail polish)!

Buddy has been VERY excited for kindergarten. He was pretty pumped to be there.

Bryce was feelin a little left out, so he requested a few pictures.

Last week of summer freedom

You know how firework shows end with a grand finally, well, that's how I like to end our summer vacations. In a week of whirlwind fun. With school starting Mon., we planned out all the things we didn't get to this summer that we still wanted to do for this last week of non-stop fun.

We were excited Eric was able to join us the last couple of hours we were there.

Wednesday:

Visit Stefanie, BYU creamery, Jumping Jacks

Thursday:

Pick of supplies for school, McDonalds, Movie night @ home

Friday:

RAGING WATERS!!

Saturday:

Dollar Theater

Not of the Dollar theater, but from our week of activities

Hahaha, My big boy

Colin and Amber got into a fight, so Colin came crying to me telling me his side of the story. Then promptly after the tears were dried, he looked at me with his cute little sad Christiansen eyes and said something I would expect from a older woman, but not surprised to hear from his little mouth. "Can I have some fudge?" hahahaha, these kids.

5k & Parade

Eric won 1st place for his age group (should I mention he was the only participant in his age group for his race?)

The Grooviest smile, Prince, Queen & Bird Whisperer

Our little ones all participated in one of the activities for the city's country fair days. Bryce and Owen did the baby contest, Amber did the Little Miss pageant, and Colin did the chicken catch at the Little Buckaroo Rodeo. They all did great with their activity, and to our surprise, three of the four earned spots on different floats in the parade this coming Sat. They are all so excited.
