This is my Roomie, Brooke McCoy. When I went to school at BYU I was lucky enough to live in the same apartment as her. She is the greatest, nicest, most fun person… and she was dropping her oldest child off at BYU so I drove down to say Hi. It made my entire week to see her for an hour and hang with Jason and Luke. I hope to be as wise and as tall as Brooke someday 😉
This was our apartment that we lived in at King Henry – – so many memories. I love all of those roommates!
Night games in the afternoon!
We got to do some Family Home Evening and we had the Hancock’s over for dinner!
I still get to help the girls and some of the boys with their hair in the mornings before school!
We got a 2019 Hyundai Elantra Sport. It is a stick shift and fun to drive!
On the first day of school – – this girl had a soccer tournament!!
It was up in West Jordan on August 18, 19, and 21 – cause the 20th got rained out.
It was a rainy day! and Manila doesn’t do track time anymore so EVERYONE was trying to get to the school at the same time!! Benji still has to do Road before he can get his license so we are taking him to school and picking him up. We are driving the jr High kids in the morning and Michelle is bringing them home in the afternoons. And the Manila kids are still meeting at the stop sign but they are just meeting themselves – no cousins to walk with.
Elementary, Junior high, and High School! Here we go kiddos!
The First Day is Always so exciting!! And now for the first time in my years of mothering I am home alone from 8am – 2pm. CRazY
Cali GOT to go to school a day early and figure out how to do Jr High!
Packer and Benji spent the morning in the cul de sac trying to make waffles for breakfast:
and some people needed to clean out their backpacks from last school year and get them ready for the 1st day of school!
I went on a one day girls trip to Bear Lake! It was the Saturday before school started. Ben stayed home with the kids and got the yard work done and sprinklers fixed and helped the kids deliver some of their business flyers. And of course they went out to eat!
I left at 6am and picked up Abbie. We drove the 3 hours to meet up with some of the ladies and head to the Lake! The lake was packed and it took forever to get in and get settled but we had some great convo’s and I may have got my little Mazda stuck in the beach sand for a minute!
We relaxed at the beach all day and ate and paddle boarded and floated the day away. Then we headed back and went out to dinner. We finished dinner and got out of there around 9pm to head home. Everyone else was staying over night. We had a fun drive back home. I enjoyed spending time with everyone that was there and I really had a blast being stuck with Abbie in the car. It was a great day.
