We went boating last saturday to end our boating days for the summer. We had a great time. The girls played in the water and tubed. Grandma and Grandpa ferney bought a surf board to try out. It is fun that my parents are not scared to try new things. They are still young at heart!! The weather was nice and there were not as many boats as I thought there would be. Joe is in the midst of grain harvest and that has been all consuming for him. We get to see him in the mornings for a few minutes and that's about it. Bailee did the MHS cheer clinic last week and had a great time. The big news in our house this week is that ELLA IS FINALLY POTTY TRAINED!!! HALLELUJAH!! That was a much more difficult task than I had anticipated. But we finally got it done. Otherwise we are trying to get a schedule now that school has started. We have both dance and piano to work into our schedule for bailee this year. It looks to be a busy year!! The shoes in the pic are bailees new "twinkle toes" she had to have them.

Here are some pics from the zoo that I stole from Tiff's blog!

Summer almost over

Well I have not been a very good blogger this summer. We have been busy but I'm not sure what we have been doing. I have worked too much I know that. I am anxious for school to start. It will be nice to have some structure back into our lives. Bailee is so excited for school to start so she can go to all day school. I can't believe I have a first grader. We went school shopping last weekend to SLC. We stayed with Rachel in alpine. We had great trip. We went to park city and hit the outlets. I think sometimes we think we are getting a better deal than we really are. Then on monday I met some friends from HS at the Zoo. Tiffany, Kelli, Natalie, and I and all of our kids hit the zoo then to lunch. What a great day! It was so fun to see you ladies and your cute kids. It felt like we were back in HS but with a bunch of noisy kids!! I also ran into another friend from HS at the mall. Jill has a beautiful baby girl and is living midwest area I think missouri? Her husband is just beginning his ENT residency. Anyway great weekend lots of fun and friends. School starts wednesday then I guess summer is really over. It went way too fast!!
