Best little buddies

Brayden is one of Boston's best friends. We are so lucky to live right next door to him. They have so much fun together and always end up on our front porch rocking in our little rocking chairs, just hanging out and having snacks. I'm so grateful to live by such great neighbors. We love the Pritcher family and don't know what we would do with out them.

Our Little Getaway

This past week Kevin and I took a short trip to L.A. He has made it a tradition to go to a BYU football game once a year. Last year he went with some friends to the Boston College/BYU game and this year he decided to invite me. I have to say I really do like college football, but I don't mind watching it on T.V. so it wasn't too enticing until I bargained with him and told him that if he came with me to the musical "Wicked" on Friday night then I would go with him to the game on Saturday. It was a win-win situation. We left early Friday morning. We met some friends of my parents and ours, Will and Debbie for dinner and the play. We had a great time and I loved it! I highly recommend the soundtrack, it's one of my favorites.

The next morning we decided to run to the Stadium and back, the weather was perfect and it was nice to run with Kev. Then we went to Lunch, went to the game, which was a disappointment, but at least it was exciting for a little while. After the game we stopped by

"In and Out" to get a burger, shake and fries and off we went to the airport to catch our red eye. Luckily the flight wasn't full so we each had a row to ourselves. Yes this was the shortest trip we have ever taken but it was great spending a little time with just the two of us.

Boston's first day of school

Boston actually started school a couple weeks ago, but I have been so crazy-busy lately I was just able to upload this picture 5 minutes ago! I swear I am busier now than I ever was when I had both kids at home all of the time. I thought I would have a little more free time, but now we are on such a tight schedule, I feel like I'm running from place to place! I feel like a

crazy woman!

So let me tell you about Boston's first day of school. He was actually really excited to start school like his big sister. The bag he brought to school was Kevin's when he was little. I thought it would be cute to have him use it for school. He now prefers a backpack like his sister, but at least we were able to use it a couple of times. The first day was fine. When it was time to leave him at school with the other kids he yelled, "Bye Mommy, I love you!" The next day was a different story, he clung to my leg and made me stay there. After a few minutes of play time he let me know he was good to let me go. I think when he said goodbye the first day he didn't realize I was going to be gone for so long. It's just 2 1/2 hours, 2 days a week, but it will take some getting used to. He is such a funny, strong willed, loving little guy and it's so fun to watch him grow up.

I love you Boston Jack!
