The weather in Bear Lake was perfect - maybe even a bit on the cool side. We left Austin behind with Grandma for the morning and took the other two out for a little hike. The kids loved exploring the mountain and kept asking if we would encounter a bear...we made it out without any animal sightings!
A trip to Bear Lake would not be complete without a trip or two to the beach. The kids spent two whole days playing in the sand and water. I am still cleaning sand out of my car but it is always worth the mess!
Yesterday I sent Kylee off to her first day of 1st grade. I broke down on Saturday night as I drove to Walmart to buy food for her lunches. It suddenly hit me that my baby girl is growing up quick! She loves school so far and is thrilled to pack a lunch and eat with all the big kids. She tracked down her "crush" from last year and came home telling me it was "freaky" because he was suddenly mean and not very cute. I think she just turned 6 but she certainly acts like she is 16!
This was the homework that she did yesterday. My favorite is where it asks her for "other important words" and she wrote LOVE, CRUSH, and JESUS. She makes me laugh daily! I had to document this one because I think it describes her so perfectly!

Renee,
I'm so happy you found my blog!
Your kids are beautiful and lucky to have you! I just finished the 4th Twilight book and hope you liked it as much as I did.
Our Nate starts first grade next week and I feel the way you do about having a "big" kid. He doesn't know about a "crush" yet...thank goodness. :-)
Love, Janet
Cute Kylee. She is getting so big. Lexi is so excited for her b-day party. Happy Birthday Kylee.
Renee - I love that copy of her work! It makes me miss teaching - just for a minute. haha.
That Kylee girl is a DOLL! She is totally you. My sis in law Haley said you saw her and told her to relay the msg to me to update my blog. Well, I did just that, because of you. Do I say thanks?
Renee!! I just can't believe how much Kylee looks like your sisters it is awesome. Your kids are all adorable. I can't believe that Kylee is in 1st grade I still remember when she was born.
