I AM BACK!!!
My niece Andrea got married in July. I just love her she is amazing. If I could be half the person Andrea is I would have it made. Anyway Andrea I miss you and I think the world of you.
Kay, Matt, and beautiful Reese were with us for four days. We had the best time with them! Wes and Matt drove to Seattle to watch BYU play UW... They bonded. Thanks again you two for coming we love you guys sooooooooooooooooooo much!
Avery's first day of Kindergarten. She was a little nervous.
A couple days later it was Cole's turn. It's his second year riding the big school bus and he loves it. He was happy to get back to school.
It was soo hard to see the school bus drive a way. I caught my self getting teary eyed. My kids are just growing up really fast. I just don't think I was or still am prepared for that.
Rosie, cookie, sister moncrief and Jessie came into town and it was fun to see them I haven't seen the moncrief sisters since seventh grade but it was amazing how we just picked up where we left off. These ladies are the coolest and oh soo fun Taraka and I wish that all these girls lived here permanently. Hint, Hint.
The Mortensen road trip. I drove the kids to Nampa Idaho. We got to stay with my sister and we had a great time. Thanks J for everything.
Hayden and Owen bonded this trip. Owen followed him everywhere.
Cole, Avery and Owen got to ride a horse... I think that was the highlight of the Nampa trip. Cole didn't want to get off.
From Nampa I picked Wes up at the airport and we drove to Utah to go to the Mortensen family reunion. We stayed at Wayne and Cecily's beautiful new home. 
Avery found a friend in Utah. It's Wayne and Cecily next door neighbor Evy they played everyday and they never had there own clothes on. Right when Evy would get to the house they would trade what they were wearing. I remember doing that.

Cole and I are trying to stay cool with the elephants.
