Kindergarten ALREADY!!!!

                          
Cali started school today! She was super excited for her first day. She has had her clothes picked out for several days now and changed her desired hair-do many times. She is adorable! I can't wait to hear about all of her fun Kindergarten stories. Cali loves reading. She loves to sing and dance and is 100% diva! She is very helpful and is 5 going on 20! She always tells us how she wants to be a grown up. We keep begging her not to grow up, but I don't think we will get our way on this one. We love Cali girl and can't wait for her to learn how to read... then she can read us bedtime stories!

Happy Birthday Dylan!!!!

August 1st was Dylan's Birthday. He was so excited for his special day. He requested a "Cars Birthday". We did our very best to make it as "carzy" as possible. He was pampered from morning to night. On Monday's Grandma "Sunna" (Missy's mom) babysits the kids. Dylan was lucky enough to have his birthday fall on such a day. He started with opening presents, then a yummy breakfast, a shopping trip to buy a cars backpack, then to visit mommy at work, out to lunch at McDonald's (his favorite place to eat), a quick nap for an energy recharge and a birthday party to be remembered. Thanks grandma "Sunna" for making Dylan's birthday a special day all day long.

His party was awesome! Dylan felt very loved! Both grandmas and grandpas, aunts and uncles, cousins, and four great grandparents attended the big event. Dylan was feeling pretty on top of the world.

 We told Dylan our big goal for #3 is to use the big potty so he can be ready for pre-school. He has made some good progress in this department so we have high hopes.
  





We love our little Dylan and look forward to seeing what year number three has in store. We can honestly say that he brings a lot of joy into our lives. He has the cutest personality and the most adorable smile. He keeps us entertained, on our toes, and rolling in laughs. We love you Dylan!

Aunt Alyssa makes the most fabulous birthday cakes. I have always hoped that I would magically become more creative and could make my kids fun birthday cakes too! The talent has not arrived, but Aunt Alyssa did.... She moved back from California and can make my kids fun birthday cakes. Dylan thought this was awesome! The fun cars on top are bath cars. Dylan will get lots of use out of them. He loves bathtime! The trick will be getting him to share with Hunter. Thanks Aunt Alyssa! You really made his cars birthday!
We don't love the BYU shirt that Uncle Tyler snuck in, but Dylan loves his grandpa and Uncle Tyler and I am sure they will get some games in... and Dyaln will need a shirt to blend in...even if he does secretly wish his blue was red!
