Summer is almost over??

Holy Cow!! Wasn't it just YESTERDAY that school got out for the summer? Now, in only 6 days, my not-so-little munchkins are going to be back in school... We've had a great summer! Lots of swimming!! We also made a trip up to Morenci, a trip to Idaho, and a trip to Manti! Read lots of books, went bowling and went to the school for breakfast and lunch. The kids get the biggest kick out of going... not sure why, but I don't question it, because that means that I only have to cook ONE meal a day!!! We have been on the go! It will be nice to get back into a routine!

School's is almost out???

I cannot believe that school is over on Thursday! How is it that the days, months, and years go by so much more quickly the older your kids get??? I just realized the other day that in the fall of 2010, Taylor will be starting High School, Bryce will be starting Junior High and Kenzee will be starting Kindergarten... How is it possible that all of these things will happen ON THE SAME DAY?!?!?!?!?!? I will be emotionally OVERLOADED!!! At least I have a year to prepare...

Back to the old routine...

Well, today ends the wonderfully lazy, relaxing break we have had... Tomorrow, we begin our old routine again. I'm not sure exactly how I feel about it... Maybe some joy at getting back to normal, and maybe a little sadness at having to stick to a schedule again. I am excited to reclaim my house tomorrow... That is probably the most difficult thing about school breaks. With all of the kids home, it seems impossible to keep the house clean! I'm not sure how Kenzee is going to handle not having her "people" home all day! She tends to feel a bit deserted by her brothers and sister when they have to go to school.
