Seattle Getaway...

We had an awesome opportunity to go and spend a weekend in Seattle with some friends who were renting a summer home there.  They were very gracious to let us come hang out for the weekend and partake of this amazing city.  I have to say I fell in love...what a fun weekend we had eating fresh fish, running by the ocean...swimming in the ocean if you're crazy like my husband, and just chilling out with old friends.  Thank you Bridgette and Travis for the fun weekend!  P.S...I would be at the market everyday if I lived there...fresh fish and flowers...does it get better!

School and some Fall happenings!

Back to school time...oh I love those faces. 
Alec starting 3rd grade, and my little Ava girl beginning all day school in 1st grade. It really is a love/hate relationship with school.  Many times in the summer I thought summer school didn't sound like such a bad idea...overall I really do love having all my family home...chaos and all.



Ava and Anna...friends since age 1.

Alec and Bryn...been starting school together since the age of 3!

Random pictures of some other fall outings...Liv at my Dad's birthday up the canyon...this is what I call her yummy bunny look...ewe I love that face!

Alec and Ava on a hike with Dad.


Ava, Alec and cousin Bowen in a dance off at a school carnival...some interesting moves going on, but they took first place!



Some good friends of ours invited our family and the Short family to spend UEA weekend at their cabin in Kamas...always so fun to get away for a bit.  The kids had a blast just running crazy, and also driving us crazy over the 4 wheelers...let's just say they got slightly obsessed with them.  Good Times...thanks!
