First day of school!!!!

Well it is here and they are off to school both my little angels.
Michelle was excited she tried very hard to hide it. She defiantly is growing up this year it was just drop her off and run. No walking her to class and taking those first day pictures at the school and in the class room. Oh the days where she was willing to let me do that. So that was a little sad for me this year. At least I was able to get my goodbye kiss from her granted we were still in the car. Michelle is excited for school she just pretends she is not. I am not sure why.

McKenzie that girl was bouncing off the walls this morning and the night before she was so excited. She kept asking is it time is it time to go and we had to keep telling not quit yet. She was so proud of herself. She also kept asking me do I get to go every day and I said every day except Saturday and Sunday and she was so excited. She even let me take her to class and take pictures. When I picked her up from school she was so excited she ran right to me and told me about her day. Then she asked again do I get to go again tomorrow and I said yes. Oh yea she also wanted her nails painted for the first day of school.



We can never take pictures without one like this

Michelle did that right before the picture went off

do not ask what Kenzie is doing I have no idea






Again there is my little Kenzie making a face.

Were ever did the time go I can not believe she is

in Kindergarten




The only thing that I will have to get used to is that they are at different schools and getting them both there on time. The other is the house is to quite for me know.

The fair!!!!

So we took the girl to the fair on there family night. It was the girls first time ever at the fair. They had a lot of fun. Michelle at first was not so sure and did not know if she really wanted to go. Once we got there she had a blast. It was really hot but we had so much fun.
Michelle rode on rides that I would never have thought of. Kenzie had a blast as long as we were riding rides when ever we stopped to do anything else she was like I want to ride the rides can we go. She was quite the dare devil well I do not know if it was that or she wanted to be like her bigger sister and just be with her. She was a trooper. I wondered often whose girls they were because I do not like fair rides very much at all but they loved them. They loved the fun houses to which surprised me Kenzie would come out and run right back in if we did not catch her.
After we had dinner it was a way more pleasant evening since the sun was going down and it was not so hot.
Here are some pictures of the girls

Karl's work Party!!!

Karl had a work party it was Hawaiian themed it was a lot of fun the girls had a blast and we had dinner there so I did not have to make dinner.











The 4th of July

This was the last day of the reunion. We went over and had breakfast and then all headed down to the 4th of July parade. I will not lie I was not impressed with the parade it was kind of a let down. Then we went and let the kids play in a fountain down town which I did not get any pictures of. Which I am upset with myself I was still not feeling the best. Then we came back for a lunch. Then a group of them went shooting. Then we came back had a barbecue and went to the firewor5ks. Which I enjoyed the fireworks very much.











The Fletcher Family Reunion

The Fletcher Reunion was here in the Fletcher’s backyard. It was a lot of fun we did games and had a lot of good food to eat. We also had a family fireside which was a lot of fun we bore are testimonies and then told funny family stories what more can you ask for. I had so much fun. I love hanging out with the Fletchers. The other funny thing that happened that just made me laugh and was not planned was the first day of the reunion we show up and all the guys are in there orange Boise state shirts. I did not get a picture of it but you can kind of tell. It cracked me up especially were it was not even planned. What dedication right
It was a wonderful relaxing but yet fun weekend. WE also had the 4th of July with them.



















The Utah Family Reunion

Even though I was probably the sickest of all at this family reunion. I would not have missed it I love seeing my family and being with them. We went to a place were we eat up in the banquet room and then we go down and go swimming which of course is the girls favorite . This year I did not go which I was a little bummed at the same time I did not feel up to it.
Then we always hang out my grandmas and have a breakfast there the next morning it was so much fun after we had breakfast. We all went to Temple square. Then there were a few that stayed until Monday and the rest headed home and then of course there are the ones that live in Utah so they stayed. I always look forward to this reunion every year. I hope we keep it up.
