Well, life is busy as usual. Tons going on. Getting back into the swing of things with work, kids back in school, scouts, sports, etc. Josh is in Hawaii for 2 weeks. He left yesterday. Guess what??? I GET TO GO TOO! Shut up, I know right! We are making it work and I get to go spend 5 days on Oahu with him. I am sooooo excited! I don't think that we'd ever get to go to Hawaii for as little as it will cost us. Because Josh is there for work, the hotel, car, and most meals will be paid for. My biggest expense will be my airfare. So excited!!!!
Anyways enough of my excitement, here's what's been going on at our house:
Colton turned 18...crazy huh?! Yep, I am officially the mother of an 18 year old. Who by the way is an amazing kid. He bought me lunch today...a garlic philly from Vito's. Yummm. Anyways. Colton is doing well, attending Pharm Tech classes at the DATC, playing football, attending homecoming this weekend, working on the weekends, hanging out with friends...you know the usual stuff that teenagers do.
Shawna' is surviving 8th grade and I'm trying to survive the boys wanting to ask her out. Yikes, when did that start? She is full of teen drama....what 13 year old girl isn't. She is taking an art class this year, and I have to say that she has some awesome pieces. Great job Shawna'! Other than getting thru school, she is still involved in Girl Scouts, likes hanging out with friends, and being on the phone.
Dallin is full of energy. He's all over the place. He's very active. Right now he's selling pop corn for his Cub Scout fundraiser, he's a Webelos. He's doing well. He loves to play sports and just recently Josh took him fly fishing for the very first time. He even caught a fish. Awesome! He seems to be enjoying 5th grade as well. I think I'll still having a hard time believing that he's in 5th grade.
Camryn has just as much energy as Dallin and she knows how to egg him on! lol She loves being active, playing soccer, antagonizing two of her brothers and sometimes her sister. She is excited to start taking piano lessons. She is a Junior in Girl Scouts this year and is loving her troop. She even went to troop camp this summer and had an amazing time.
Will is excited because he is old enough to join Cub Scouts this year. I signed him up last week, now he is a Tiger. He's having fun competing with Dallin trying to sell the most popcorn. Will is really liking 1st grade. I asked him about it and he told me that he really likes it because he has his same teacher from Kindergarten. He said that he wouldn't have liked 1st grade if he didn't have her for a teacher.
It's so fun to be around my kids and watch them grow. I love every day with them. (Well most days) We've got an exciting few days coming up: I'll be hosting dinner for the Bountiful High Football line, a niece is turning 2, I'm going to Hawaii, it's almost time to put up Halloween decorations, fall is somewhere around here, I hope.
Hopefully my next post will be of Hawaii.....till then, Good Night.
