Another year older and wiser

So the wiser part of that title may be debatable. Both Jamie's and my birthday are in September. So my nice mother-in-law offered to watch our girls while we went away for the weekend. So we went to Vegas! It was so fun. Friday night we went to The Producers which was starring none other than Tony Danza! Then Saturday we went to the Utah football game which was pretty bad as far as the game goes but we still had fun! There were many good buffets that we ate at of course and it was so nice to have time together without the kids! Grace is now at an age where I don't know if she even misses us when we leave for just a few days. The first thing she said to us when we got back was, "I don't want you to be here, I don't want to go home yet." I think it's obvious that she gets the royal treatment from her grandparents. Oh and sorry the picture is so bad. I took this myself, if you couldn't tell. I really was planning on taking pictures of our trip and then didn't, so this is a picture I took before we left to come back home!

Museum Fun

We went to the museum at the Gateway with some friends the other day. It was so much fun. I can't believe all the fun stuff they have for kids these days! I didn't get any pictures of it, but they even had a helicopter up on top that the kids can get in and play. The kids were in heaven!

Football Season Has Begun!

We have enjoyed going to the Utah football games for the past few years. Grace enjoys getting in her cheerleader outfit and shouting Defense! This season started out pretty sad but last saturday the Utes beat UCLA who was ranked #11. So GO UTES!

A new favorite snack

We went to a fun Elder's quorum activity last night. We watched Curious George in the Gym on a projector. We brought this popcorn and Sarah could not get enough. She did pretty well with it for awhile, until she started dumping it all over.

1st Day of School

Grace had her first day of pre-school! It was hard to get much out of her about what they did. She just kept replying I do no not know, Mother to every question I would ask. I am so excited for her to go to school. I know sometimes parents are sad that their child is growing up, but I am excited. Is that wrong? It will be nice to have some time with just Sarah and it is so fun to see her interact with other children.
