First Day of School! First Day of School!

The beginning of another school year...

Emily

5th grade

(5th grade, people...I was in 5th grade yesterday! How is it that my baby is a beautiful, confident 5th grader? )

Natalie

2nd grade

(My pretty social butterfly. Strong-willed, independent and ready to roll...2nd grade...here she comes!)

Todd

Kindergarten

(Certainly the most handsome kindergartener I know. I can neither confirm or deny that I was teary eyed over him today.)

Alex

2.5 years old
(My blue-eyed charmer. Looking forward to lots of fun with mom...and hopefully an occasional nap...while everyone else is at school)

And...

It just so happens that today is my two year blogiversary...

...so grab a piece of cake and join the party!

Pyschic Target?

How did they know this was just what I would need after an entire day of shopping with four beastie darling children?

I <3 the Unitas

I love our annual camping trip with Kurt's family to the Uinta Mountains. It's such a gorgeous, peaceful, amazing place. I look forward each year to the time we spend there.

This year the kids and I spent eight great days in our favorite spot. The first four days were spent with my kids, my sis-in-law Lori, and her five kids...sans husbands. Aren't we brave and adventurous? :o) It was really fun, so much in fact, that it's likely to become our addition to the tradition!

The last four days brought hubbies (yay!), aunts, uncles, more cousins, grandma, grandpa...and terrible weather! We bundled up, rode it out, and had a great time fishing, hiking, singing, playing, eating yummy food and relaxing. I'm already counting down until next year's trip.
