Audrey loved playing soccer this season! It was amazing to see how much she improved along with her teammates.

Had so much fun with all these wonderful women last night at our Relief Society Retreat. Laughter is so good for the soul!

We gave our kids and @diegocaminhadeoliveira a true Idaho education and they loved it! Who knew potato harvest could be so exciting!

Too gorgeous to stay home today so we headed for the river. It did not disappoint.

As much as I love the autumn, I am still very sad to say goodbye to this gorgeous, fun-filled, memorable summer we've had. It's been good to us!

It's always interesting (entertaining>delicious) when Warren is in charge of the family home evening dessert.

These two are having the time of their lives with the leftover cake and frosting from a cake decorating church activity. With help on the ears and eyes, Kirsten does a pretty good Minnie Mouse- which is appropriate because she talks like her when she's upset.

Crazy day at school. The the kid's favorite day and Mom's least favorite 😣

Lydia wanted me to post a picture of her on Instagram and I told her she had to do something that was Instagram worthy. This is what she came up with. Green bean art entitled "The Cupcake"

We had a fun Labor day weekend playing with family in Utah. We are in a magical new phase of life when we can leave the kids home with the oldest cousins babysitting and have a grown-up breakfast date with some of the best people around. PC @elysepehrson

The first day of school for my favorite son. I sure do love this kid! Can't wait to see what fun and excitement he brings to his preschool classroom.

This little gnome loves to hang out with me while I work in the garden. She crawls in the dirt, digs in the dirt, eats the dirt and any tomatoes she can fine -green or red. She is 13 months old today and loves to be outside, eat anything and everything, explore the house, and jabber and shriek at anyone who will listen. She does not like baths or having to hold still for a diaper a change. She has taken a few steps but prefers the speediness of crawling or cruising. We love her!

It's happening! Three kids at school, two at home. What will I do with all of my time😉

One last hurrah at the carousel before our cousins went home. I love that these cute kids can be best friends with their cousins.👬👭❤

We are partying with this mob all week. Our goal is to have so much fun that my nieces and nephew beg their parents to move to Idaho and then....they do! I think so far we have been highly successful in the fun department.

It's been a rough week with Evelyn cutting her first tooth and deciding to drop a nap but this swing is magical! It is instant happiness for her.

Our thoughtful kids surprised us last night with a candlelit dinner to celebrate our anniversary. Lydia planned the event and did most of the preparation, though she did recruit grandma to help her and Audrey with the cooking. It was very sweet. I am so grateful I married this guy 14 years ago. We make a good team. 💕

We had a fun camp out at Buffalo River. Not sure why easy cheese face paint has become a camping tradition, but unfortunately it has.

Evelyn was camp champ- sleeping in 100 degree temps, rain and wind; being squished into a life jacket, and enjoying the cool water. I am so grateful that she is such a happy baby!

She is halfway to adulthood. This girl is so full of life and excitement and words and emotion and ideas. She keeps us on our toes! All she wanted for her birthday was Shopkins and to try her first buffet at Chuck-A-Rama 😜. Happy birthday Lydia Lou!

The summer birthday marathon has gotten the best of me ! We celebrated this first baby's birthday a few weeks ago while at our family reunion. Audrey graciously shared her birthday with her great grandpa's 100th birthday celebration without complaint. She continues to impress me with her talents, abilities, and willingness to to hejp out.

The only picture i took at our fun outing to the St Anthony sandbar a few days ago. This beach baby thought the sand was tasty. The rest of the kids loved swimming, catching minnows, and playing in the sand.
