Back to School

Well school is back in session. Everyone is back on a good routine to get a good amount of sleep and a good breakfast to start the day. Back to School night the kids got to try out their desks and meet their teachers.

 Alayna is in 2nd grade.

 Kaytlin is in 4th grade.

 Brayden is in 8th grade.

 Alayna greeting Brayden after he got off the bus. I thought it was so sweet that she waited for him and was so excited when he "finally" got home.

 Day 2 and still smiling.

 Haircuts before school started.

We are almost a full month in and they are still enjoying their teachers and friends. 

Hoping they have a fantastic year!

Cache Valley Century Bike Ride

This year Josh was able to ride in several bike rides. His most recent was down in Richmond, Utah. He rode 40 miles in some pretty scenery!

He is on the far left of this picture that was shared with us.

 While he rode we volunteered and helped at the start/finish line and lunch.

 We also made a pit stop to see some history of the area.

 The best part was visiting with family who were gracious enough to allow us to stay with them. The kids would say their favorite part was holding babies.

 That was a fun new memory we made this summer.

Eclipse

We had family come in to visit for the eclipse. It was a remarkable experience to be able to see the eclipse right from our own front yard. When it the sun was fully eclipsed it was dark and chilly like it would be in the late evening. I didn't think it would be as awesome as it was. I exceeded my expectations.

 These were captured by a neighbor who shared with us.

Can't wait for the next one to happen!
