New Beginnings!

Ben started preschool! He's so big, and we all excited. These pics were from the first day of school. He picked out what he wanted to wear -down to the undies- and we loved wearing his back pack.

There was no crying or nervousness; he just walked right in and waved goodbye. This is the start of a whole new routine for the boys and me. It will be a good one!

After I dropped Ben off, Kade and I went to the park we love. It's just up the street from Ben's preschool. It was fun to play one on one with Kade. I rarely get that. We had a good time playing for an hour (almost half of which was spent on the swing). Kade is loving the undivided attention, and has started bringing me more books to read and starting to sing primary songs with me.

I love the types of change that bring growth. Ben will grow at school, and Kade will grow by having more time with me. I love it. I am loving St. G.

Also, I started my Institute class yesterday! I love it! I love having an additional class to learn what the Lord wants and expects of me. I love getting to really dive deep into the gospel. It's an hour and a half class, so we cover a lot. Whoo hoo!

Better Late then Never.

Back on the 24th of July, Joe and Ben were in the Pioneer parade in Enterprise, UT. Joe has to do the parade thing every year with the other firefighters. This year he figured Ben could join him on top of the big engine and throw out Frisbees.

I dropped Ben off to Joe and then found a great spot for me and Kade to watch the parade. Ben sat next to Smokey the Bear and enjoyed the parade. It was a lot of fun. (I haven't had the camera around to retrieve pics, plus I never blog anymore, it seems.)
