Hmmmm... should I do the dishes or update the blog?? Usually the dishes win, but tonight I'm feeling like an update! So, here we go!! :)
The day before Madeline started school we went and got our nails painted together! I wanted a little mother daughter time to really see if I could tell how she was feeling... she thought it was fun and couldn't stop watching all the people that were getting pedicures... neither could I... weird!!!
So after we were done we sat on the curb and I tried to have a serious conversation with her about school and everything... pretty much she just laughed at me, said it wasn't really a big deal, and why don't we go home now... :) I tried, right?
All ready for her first day! The book bag is a little big, don't you think... she wouldn't let us pin it up, because she wanted it to be as big as all the other kids'.
First day of Kindergarten hugs!!
The morning before school started we got our new piano delivered to us!! Woot! Woot!!!!!!
Madeline is super lucky to be with her friend Tallie! They get to walk to school together every single day and be in the same class!
Josh worked from home so we could all walk together the first day! Awwww!!!!
That night we went camping with our ward. Good times!!!!
His eyes are so blue, huh?
We were such losers, we went to bed at 9:30pm, we were so tired!!!! BUT... we were all up bright and early!!
Second day of school!
People have asked how Moira is dealing with Madeline's absence... hmmm... she is rejoicing!! She gets to do whatever she wants pretty much!
She and Madeline started dance classes a couple weeks ago... Moira is one of the oldest in her class and LOVES LOVES LOVES it!!!
Here she is in action!
Last weekend we went to the state fair... it was sort of fun, but there were a few too many people for us! Phew!!!! It was a little stressful keeping track of everybody! (Hmmm.. yes, that's road rash on Moira's face, she and Madeline decided to ride the power wheel together and Moira's face skidded across the sidewalk...)... :(
Llama, llama lots of drama!
Awww... my cute girls!
This was the most fun we had at the fair... their rain forest exhibit! (We stood in line for 45 min!)... yikes! :)
Josh got this free grill at a garage sale at the beginning of the summer and finally completed its finishing touches! He's pretty amazing!!
Our little helper!
Moira rocks! Notice the ankle on the knee for the pose in this picture and the green stamps all over her face... hmmm!
Moira took about a million pictures at Madeline's dance class... she got a couple really good ones!
So fun!
Moira and Brockers at preschool!!! My friend and I are switching teaching them once a week while the big girls are at school!! So, so, so, so, so FUN!!!
Yesterday we went to the Woodland park zoo with some friends! It was awesome! Beautiful! This was the best family picture we got! :)
Their kids and ours! So cute and fun!

I'm in a missing mood, Tif, so sorry to remind you, buuuuut, I miss you (head ducks sheepishly).
BUT so fun for Madeline starting school and Moira rejoicing about it! Haha!
Its kinda funny, as I read your post, I can hear your voice in my head narrating it to me. I'm sure its just my imagination. :)

I love, love, love your new piano - how exciting! The girls are so cute at their dance class. Love your cute post and love you guys!!
Glad I'm not the only one who still has a Splash & Dash shirt. :)
I can't believe Madeline is in Kindergarten already! Your kids are all getting so big and so cute!! Her first day of school outfit was so cute!! Woot for the grill working! Josh is awesome! Looks like you had fun camping too!! Love you and miss you tons!
Brycen is doing preschool too! And we just made the stringing Cheerios on a necklace thing the other day too-he loved it! Your new couch and piano make me 'real job' hungry! Sounds like you guys are having a blast!!
Loved, loved, loved the blog post. Just what this grandma needed to see. I need to come visit my babies so bad. I need to hold that big blue eyed baby and walk my girl to school. I want to watch their dance glasses. They have got to be the cutest ones there! Love the new grill. Tell Josh I want something cooked on it the next time I come visit. Love ya all sooo much!!!
