Goodbye Summer.

Sadly I say "goodbye" to the best summer that I have had in years. The kids and I did so many fun things together and my sister Donna came to see us too. I tried to make the most of this summer by not taking any classes and just soaking it up because I have to work in the counseling clinic in Commerce for my practicum for the next two summers. As much as I know I will LOVE that and the fact that I am actually going to be able to practice what I have been learning for the past few years, it will take me away from my kids more than I would prefer.

I ended my summer with a few activities, not to mention my birthday which I will post separately. Below are some pics from that last week:



Aunt Donna and Camryn at Hawaiian Falls.

Me and my babies enjoying some much needed shade (and sweets!)

Cody trying to teach his sister how to ride her bike without the training wheels. He was more patient than she was.

I whipped up some cutains for my classroom. I decided to go "Wild" this year and do a theme with animal patterns. I made a tree in my room and have vines hanging from the ceiling. It's my favorite classroom set up yet.

Here is Cody standing proudly in front of the scariest ride at the water park. He actually liked free falling...I am worried!

I'm sure I won't be able to post as often now. School's back in and I am taking two graduate classes...one of which is statistics online and from the first week I can tell that he is going to be working us hard in that one. Oh well, it's a means to an end, right?
