Yucky Virus!
We are back after a short hiatus with a virus. Yes, our poor little computer got sick! We called Dr. Mike Bradshaw and he was able to revive it after some time in ICU. Thanks Dr. Bradshaw!

My baby starts kindergarten
Well, my 5 lb baby grew up and is now a 5 year old who started kindergarten! He loves it so much, he didn't even look back on the first day going into class. He is an eager learner and has had so much fun. His teacher is Mrs. Walker and he goes to Shelley Elementary in American Fork. I have been trying to add a picture of his teacher but, apparently blogger does not like me (see slide show in previous post) So I will have to try to post it later (grrrr...)

August=Crazy Month
Wow! August has been so fun and so crazy! We had our Aunt Lisa and Cousins Trajan and Macey come visit us at the beginning of the month. We had lots of fun! We went to the Children's Museum, the Thanksgiving Point childrens gardens, the BYU Creamery, Swimming at Lehi Pool and our house, the Dinosaur Quarry in Emery Co., BBQ at G&G Bradshaws and lots of fun playing Bionicles, Indiana Jones and Star Wars. It was great to see everyone!
