Ok so I have never been the kind of mom that cries on the first day of school. And today was no exception. I thouroughly enjoyed getting them ready this morning and kissing them each goodbye and watching them ride down the street to school on their bikes. I did miss them a little during the day, but I just had to close my eyes and enjoy the quiet to get over that.

Even though the boys said they were not excited at all for school, I think that they were very ready to go this morning. Alli got up on her own, and ready in like 10 min. Joey had to make sure to pick just the right shirt, and Zach had to make sure his hair was perfect. They all succeded. They are so adorable!!!

Here is the cake I made the kids for their first day of school.

Daddy came home for a few days, and Jason could not get enough of him. He was daddys little shadow. Brian even got one of Jason's rare kisses.

Well, we made it through the summer with no broken bones or stitches, but Jason had to get something in. I was at a friends house, and he was running around with the kids, and ran smack into the wall!! We all thought it was cute to put the boxing gloves on him. Even though I think the wall won.

It's fair week!!!

These are the cupcakes the kids made today to enter in the fair. Alli did the 'corn on the cob', Zach did the ice cream cone, and Joey did the caterpillar. We will find out tomorrow how they did!

Last Tuesday I had the opportunity to take the 4 kids to the Twin Falls temple open house. I was a little hesitant, you know my kids in the temple!!!! but I have to say I am so glad I took them . They were perfect children ( the tour was only 15 min. ) Their true colors were shining at diner after but that wasn't so bad either! We all had a very memorable time.
