August

I have to say entering the month of August, it got a bit more crazy 'round here.

Michaela and Trey attended Marching Band Camp for two weeks. Bryce, Isaac, Tessa and Ronny went to 2 sessions of swimming classes. We started soccer season for Trey, Bryce, Isaac and Tessa. School started last Tuesday and I got called to be in Primary as second counselor (over Cub Scouts).

I haven't been to see the horses very often although I had good intentions of having my colt green broke this year. Guess we shall see if that happens. . .

Paul and the kids went up to their cousins and went wave running. Hopefully there isn't too big of a bill attached to that activity, heh.

Ronny will be starting Kindergarten in another week. He seems really excited. I am hoping he is not like Trey who said on the 3rd day of school that he didn't like it so much and he'd rather stay home.

I am looking forward to some quieter afternoons when the lil' boys are napping: )

oh Mama!

just calculated that we have changed 40,000 diapers since becoming parents. . .

We've had some fun things going on at the Nelsonranch. Bryce, Isaac and Tessa enjoyed basketball and Spring soccer. Most of the soccer games were freezing cold though. Isaac was excited to sign up for baseball because then he would be playing three sports!!
Bryce has moved up to 11 yr old scouts and received his Arrow of Light for cub scouts. I will miss having him in Webelos.
Trey made the percussion line at Timpview and will be playing cymbals. He seems pretty excited about that.
It seems really crazy that school is almost out and that we have lived here in Provo for almost a year. It seems longer. Maybe because everything is so familiar and the people here are great.
The horses have shoes on and I am looking forward to wearing them out this summer. Any of you who are able are more then welcome to come ride with us- just give me a jingle.
