First Day of School

Today was Jonah's first day of second grade. He has Ms. Aggers who also taught him in kindergarten. He wouldn't let me take a picture at school unless I promised to get the shoes in. Please notice the Ecko's that are on his feet because that was the most exciting part of his first day.

Kindergarten starts a week later at our school. So, Luke has another week to worry about starting at his new school. His teacher is Ms. Clark and she was new last year so we don't know much about her.

Last week of Summer

We went to Bear Lake for three days last week. Grandpa came with us and we had a lot of fun. The boys loved having him there. Luke and Kira love the sand and Jonah loves the water and boats. Kira and Luke were really sick the last night and on the way home but we had a great time until then.

Thursday, we went to Liberty Park with friends and played in the water. That night, we had a fun party at Wheeler Farm. Luke is still talking about the funny magician there.

Friday night, we went camping for our ward campout. There were only a few families there this year. It's a good thing because Kira kept most of them up for an hour screaming. We think she still didn't feel great but after many attempts she finally took the cookie bribe we were offering and went back to sleep. We played games, roasted marshmallows and played in the river.

August

We went to Lagoon last week. Kira loved it except for the ride that she got sprayed in the face (Todd's idea to take her on). Luke didn't like the Wild Mouse (it's very jerky and you feel like you will fall off any minute) but he loved the other roller coasters like the Bat that your feet dangle below you. Jonah loved all of the big rides. He can go on any ride there so he tried to get on all of those. Grandpa Utah and Dad got too tired of the crazy rides to keep it up or he might have made it. There aren't many pictures of Jonah.

This week, we went to the Dinosaur Park in Ogden. It's pretty fun. We went with our friends that live up there. Here is a picture of the boys with Addie & Calder and one of Kira digging in the sand for dinosaur bones. She liked throwing sand more and climbing on the other kids but she tried it for a minute.
