Our new school. . .


All last week we packed boxes at school in preparation for our
move into the new school.  We still had school and we still
had to teach so we went early and stayed late to get the packing 
done.  
Movers are coming on Tuesday and they will take boxes and 
furniture.  Volunteers came on Saturday, they would take
everything else.

It was a long week, I'm glad it's over.
But, I did love seeing our  new school.
When we go back after Thanksgiving,
we will be in the new school.
I'm sure it will be a mess but hey,
it's been that way for quite a while.
I'm excited!!!!



 Looking down the hall of our old school.
 Still looking down the hall, just the other way.
 The kids are getting ready to go to the new school to see inside for the first time.
They are taking all the things from their desks.
 Top floor at new school.
 Nope, not done yet but they are working on it.

 This is the room I'll be working in.
Just getting the carpet.
 Looking down hall on 1st floor.

 This is the gym.
Love the Bulldog!

Hopefully, when we go back after Thanksgiving, we will see progress.

Spending time with Jenna. . .


Jenna came to play last Thursday night.
Oh my, she was so cute!
She just giggled and we had so much fun playing. 
She is talking so well.
We could totally understand what she was saying! 
There is nothing better than a sweet little 
granddaughter to spend the evening with. 
We love you Jenna!

17 months old.





Activity Day Girls


November 13, 2013

I asked my Activity Day girls what their favorite tradition was.  I didn’t say Christmas or Thanksgiving, just a favorite tradition.

Jenna Winn – I love that my “Winn” family goes to Warm River each summer on a camping trip.  I have so much fun, it’s the best!

Naomi Flores – Loves opening Christmas presents just after 12:00  midnight on Christmas Eve.   Then on Christmas morning they get to see what Santa left in their stockings.    She also loves staying up all night on a sleep over with her cousins during the holidays.

Savanah – Making Thanksgiving dinner, eating it and then a family movie.

Kiani – Each year on her birthday, she cleans out her room and fills totes and gives to the shelter.  She loves this  ands saves stuff to put in it.  So wonderful!

Whitney – Each year on Nov. 30th, she spends the whole day with her dog because that is the day she got him.

Madalynn – She loves being with her family and cousins. 

Pearl – She loves St. Patrick’s Day.  Making traps to catch a leprechaun. 

Samantha – She loves the Cearal Game at her Grandparents house on Christmas Eve.
Everyone brings a box of wrapped Cearal and then they do the gift exchange.


Mandy -  Loves going places with her family and of course, the presents!

Sharing. . .


I just love this picture of Camden and Emily sharing a stool and
writing on the white board.  
I just love these guys, they are the cutest ever.

Moab - fall 2013


We left Wednesday, Oct. 30, 2013 when I got off work.
We rode with Mike and Karen.
A long drive but so fun to visit and get
caught up.
The radio was never on, we visited.
We meet Loren and Kaylynn in Moab 
at the Super 8!


Thursday
October 31
Cane Creek












 This is at the Hole In The Rock!
Cane Creek was a scary ride but the scenery was simply beautiful.



Day 2
Tusher Tunnel
Today the guys decided to tone it down just a bit for us.
A beautiful day!


















Our RZ broke down at about 3:00 in the afternoon.  
Wynn tried to fix it but needed parts that weren't available in Moab.
This did mean that us girls got to do a little shopping and then
a nice dinner at the Broken Ore restaurant.



Day 3
Arches National Park

Since we couldn't go riding today, we choose
to visit Arches National Park.
We hiked and enjoyed the beautiful scenery!

A fun day!
We then traveled home.
