Summer fun

Last week I took the week off of work.  We went swimming on Monday, Tuesday we went to Wahooz, Wednesday we had a play date with Amy's friend Megan and Thursday we went shopping for school supplies and back to school hair cuts, Friday we went to the zoo and then we went to the fair of Saturday.  It was a full week, but we had a lot of fun. 

Getting back on the boat

So I have severely neglected this blog.  I can't believe it has over a year since I have posted anything.   I have missed documenting a whole year of our lives.  I feel like it has been pure craziness with David working in Utah and me working full-time.  I love working as a manager but I hate the full-time hours.  I have serious mommy quilt at times. 
So this is the week of the start of school and a new daycare.  Amy started on Monday and Parker starts on Thursday.  Amy really loves her teacher this year.  Her name is Ms Sterling.  Parker will have Mrs. Olson and we have heard good things about her.  I am feeling good about our decision to not send the kids back to Challenger. 
We are hoping and praying that David gets a new job soon that is closer too home.  He is done with the traveling and so is he.

Paper airplanes

Parker taught his kindergarten class how to make paper airplanes.  We now have paper airplanes all around the house.  He makes some really good airplanes.

Wahooz

This weekend when  dad was visiting we went to Wahooz it was fun.

Living room forts

My kids really enjoy turning the living room into forts.  Here is one of their forts they made.

Play date with friends from school

We have made the decision to send the kids to public school this year.  We will miss all the friends we have made at school.  We enjoyed having a play date with some friends.  We went to the Discovery center and than they invited us to go ice skating.  The kids did so well.  They were both skating really well by the end of the 3 hours.  There were a few bumps and bruises and were a little sore the next day but they had a blast.
