Block Party

We had the annual Block Party today.  I was in charge of it this year.  It was a ton of work but I think that everyone enjoyed it.  

Jackson thinking he is pretty cool petting a large lizard and wearing his glasses.

The boys with some of the Utah basketball team.  

Fun Run

 Indian Hills had their Fun Run today.  It was pretty fun to watch the kids.  They warmed up by doing a few Zumba moves to some kid songs.  After the race, they played a few fun games to cool down.

Jackson would make comments about how awesome he was every time he ran past us.

Hayden and Blake cheering on Jackson.

Blake ran almost the full 15 minutes.  His teacher even commented how he was lapping her.

Hayden stood like this the whole race.  He thought he was pretty cool.  He was having a great time cheering on the kids and giving them high fives.

Blake's First Day of Kindergarten

Kindergarten could not come fast enough for Blake.  It killed him that he had to start a week after Jackson.  The only thing he doesn't like about school right now is that it is only half day.  He is already on the count down for a full day of school.

Hayden wished he was going to school with Blake.

Blake was so happy to have a locker.

First Day of Second Grade

Jackson was so ready for school to start.  I don't know why he making such a cheesy face.

A few friends leaving for the school bus.

Hayden and his best friend Kate.  They were reading a book while we were waiting for Jackson's bus to come.

Foam Fest

My friend had a crazy idea to run in the Foam Fest.  It was actually a lot of fun.  We were on a team, "Jem and the Foamagrams".  We spent the night before getting ready.  We were all over coloring our hair, crimping and crazy makeup.  The pictures are not in order but I am way too lazy to fix that right now.

Getting ready

 River Cross

Electric Fence (Yes, real electricity!)

Failing at crossing the river.

We made it!!!

We actually made it in an hour.  We were very proud of that time.

Can you tell we are running on 2 hours of sleep?

This is actually from the start line.

I am in the back in pink shorts.

It was a really fun race.  I will definitely do this one again.

Utah Symphony in the Park

We went to our yearly tradition of seeing the Utah Symphony in the park.  The Prax Family came with us.  I am really glad that Jamie brought her camera because I forgot mine.  Here are some crazy pictures of the kids before the symphony started.

Hayden and soccer

Hayden is taking a "Learn How to Play Soccer" class.  He has a lot of fun with it.  His t-ball class starts soon.   

The red Elephants!

Hayden was so excited he was able to throw in the ball when it was kicked out .
