Labor Day & First Day of Preschool

Mike and I decided to take the girls camping over Labor Day Weekend. It was fun to be in the great outdoors for a change! Sorry for all the pics...but there were some cute photo ops!

Mike and Bailee played hide-n-seek. She totally tricked him when she hid up the tree!


She loved helping Mike set up the tent.

The girls couldn't understand how we were ALL going to fit in the tent AND sleep in there...but we made it work, and they did great :)

A Camping We Will Go!


Bailee didn't bring her flip flops...so she sported the cowboy boots on the beach. Again...another great photo op!

And...of course...whatever Bailee does...Sammie does!



MMM...yummy dutch oven cooking on the beach!







Bailee started preschool yesterday! I was so excited for her. She woke up and came downstairs and asked me, "Am I late for preschool?" It was so cute. So we got ready, and took her pictures and I went and dropped her off. I got back in the car and Sammie started crying and asked for Bailee. That made me cry. I can't believe how fast they are growing up. I truly am trying to enjoy my time with them and look for the good in each day! Even though you have stressful days, I would not change anything....I love being a mommy.

I love your posts! Bailee looked so cute for her first day of school. I think gracie has the same boots. I laughed out loud when I read the story about throwing rocks. That is awesome. So, I didn't know that you guys even moved. Are you in Utah? Probably one of the lucky ones!

I'll have my video camera ready when Mike wants his first ride. Randall went with my dad and brothers for a little ride (8hrs)over the weekend and is still walking bull legged. Bailee looks so cute climbing the tree. Oh, I miss Utah.

Hi, from Aunt LeAnn:
I love reading your blogs. It's so fun to read updates on your family.
It was great to visit with you briefly at the shower.
I am sure you are thrilled that Mike has graduated from Medical School. Hopefully, you are adjusted to the next phase of his medical career.
Take care and know that we love you all.
