First day of School

Just like every year in Septemeber comes school and the end of summer. The kids were really excited about it this year which is great, Mattison is going into the
4th grade which is totally scary and Taylor started kindergarten this year. Since it is now Nov. I will give you a little update along with this post. Mattison is at the top of her class and as her teacher says "everyone wants to be friends with her". Oh my little social butterfly...hopefully it doesn't go to her head! Taylor is doing well also, just learing letter sounds and shapes but if you ask him everyday, "what did you do at school today." his response is always "nothing" ha!

now September we are getting closer to current..

September was full of firsts for Miss Payton, and of course school for Matti & Taylor althouhg I think that deserves a seperate post of its own. Payton is gettin bigger as you can see, she sleeps in her crib, and her first bites of cereal. She took to sleeping in her bed well..(don't get too excited I didn't say anything about sleep through the night!) she does like it though. In Sept. she also got to try her first bites of cereal. She wasn't quite sure what to think of it but knew she wanted more! After a few more bites she knew it was good stuff!

From July to Aug...

Well, August was filled with fun things. Here is just a few to start you off but many more things to come. We started August off with a trip to the zoo and we had a great time. Payton was good, and the kids ran around and just crashed on the way back to the house. There is just something about the zoo that never gets old. Then we took the best family vacation yet to Silver Mountain, and for those of you that have not been it is a must. The rooms are beautiful with balconys and great views everywhere you look, the indoor water park was so much fun and the gondola ride....well jeff had fun the rest of us just about crapped our pants! Notice no pictures....well that is becuase I was convinced if I moved the thing would fall! HA! seriously! Other than that we really enjoyed our selves with G & G Hammitt there to keep Payton busy while Jeff and I acted like kids with kids. (Scary I know) All in all the beer was cold, water was warm & it was just all out fun! Had to throw in a few pics of Payton too.
