Catching Up - August 2011

August marked a huge milestone for our family - our first little school girl! Arden Bea started kindergarten this year and she was sooooo excited! For the first day of school, we were invited to attend a neighborhood breakfast and walk-to-school with our friends. It is so fun to live in a community where everyone is involved and makes days like this fun. Arden picked out some fun new school duds and got a new haircut a few days later (pics below). What a sweet, fun, darling, and smart little lady - we're so excited to begin this adventure with her!
Best Friends + Same Class = Fun Kindergarten Year
Annual Neighborhood 1st day of school breakfast
The neighborhood walk - what a fun tradition!
The kindergartners just had a little intro day where they listened to Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, then did some fun activities to get to know eachother and become familiar with their new classroom.


"Okay Mom, time for you to go now! No really, leave.
Mom, why are you crying?"

On the home front, we spent the rest of August enjoying the absolutely gorgeous Utah summer weather. It is undoubtedly our favorite time of year here. We basically live outside.
Another fun milestone, back-to-school haircuts! I just love these little ladies in their short bobs. And this time they got to choose a special treat - a colored feather. They looooved this idea! Daddy, not so much. Good thing they weren't permanent. So cute though, really!

This one is just random, I just love my cute little post-bath nakee babies! So stinkin' cute!
