Where Did The Month Go?

Evie had a birthday.

 She wanted donuts again this year instead of a cake. 

 Making their sand art  in a bottle.

We re-stuffed puppy dog since he was looking pretty thin.

 He's a bit of a fatty now and loved more than ever.

Stewart had his annual work BBQ in Green River.

Ryan and Evie taking a break on a swing that is along the bike trail that follows the river.

Do you like the big red stain on Ryan's shirt?  There was Hawaiian Punch at the BBQ and the kid was in heaven.



TOP 5

1. We made it through the summer. School starts tomorrow. Hooray!
2. I'm done teaching Sharing Time for the month of August and won't have to teach again until the  December. Seriously this calling is a breeze.
3. Taking the kids to thepark andit was almost too chilly in the shade with the wind blowing.  I loved it!
4. Ice from Sonic.  Life is good.
5.  Two of my friends had their babies.  It gets me excited.

BOTTOM 5

1. Heartburn has been fierce.
2.  Trying to keep Ryan entertained at the movies.  He has a hard time sitting through a show without doing something else at the same time.  Even at home, he has Legos or some toy that he's playing with when he watches tv.
3. Kids staying up way too late several nights in a row.  Oh, the meltdowns that occurred the following days.
4.  I don't have any good books to read. 
5.  Taking Evie to the Mall so she could spend her money on new earrings.  We got there at 6:50 pm and apparently the Mall closes at 7:00 on Saturday nights.  Crazy right.  Luckily she was able to shop fast.
