Back to School!

Another School Year has begun!! Parker is in the 4th grade and has Mrs. Salter, Max is going into the big 1st grade{ALL day!!} and has Miss. Slater! So Salter and Slater hope we don't get confused!! haha! I love the feel of a new school year! A new beginning new opportunities for growth and learning! So exciting!! Parker has been excited to go, although he would not admit it! 

Talking to dad before he's off on his first day of school!

These two photo's were taken at home because I was asked to NOT bring the camera to school! He knows me all to well, and wanted to save himself the embarrassment!! I find these points in life amusing, :make note: 4th grade,, starting to care about "stuff like that"
His "joe cool" model pose!
Oh and my Maxi!! Cute Max was a little nervous, we went yesterday to meet his cute YOUNG teacher (who made me feel old!) we talked to her for a bit, I filled out some paper work and Max got to choose his seat! He was very shy and has had a few questions the last few days::what line to I get in? Where do I meet Parker after school, (all of which I explained already) What happens if... {fill in the blank} he is my scheduled, likes routine, thinks things through,wants to know all scenarios kid. So needless to say I hope things run smoothly for him!!

Max and Elle'

I always get a little chocked up as they walk in those doors, as much I love for them to go, if you know what I mean, I worry about them and it's hard to not be there if they were to need something. But they are good kids and they do like school and I know they will do great!! Yay for a new school year!

Super fun Weekend!!

Girls Night!!
I Needed a break! So some friends and I ditched the kids and went downtown for dinner and an overnighter!!! We ate at PfChangs and walked around the Gateway for a little shopping and dessert!!!


We hit the hot tub... had some fun in the elevator and had a bit of a scare due to a stolen lounge chair and a stalker... ;)

... and had some awesome entertainment later!!!
I love my friends!!! Thanks Ladies for a hilarious night out!



Balloon Festival!!
We went to the Balloon Festival, at the Sandy Promenade,  Saturday.  I wanted to go last year and we never made it... so I was glad we were able to go this year! It was really neat so I'm glad we did!! We went early and the kids tossed around a football then at dusk they whip out the Hot Air Balloons and "blow em up"...










It was really neat to watch how they do it! And they do it right in front of you, and they look so pretty!!! It was really cool, I highly recommend attending next year, if you've never been!! We went with our good friends Bryce and Kelly, then went back to our place for some ice cream! Thanks guys for coming with us! And I'm thrilled your back!!!
