End of summer fun.....

At the end of August we went to my parents in Rexburg to stay a night with them. They took us to a little pond and we did some fishing. Sam caught one but it got away before we could net it.
While at my parents they took us to this little park for a picnic. It had a really fun little water park for the kids to play in. As you can see Samuel had a blast.
Zach was content in playing in the water fountains.Aria got to try the slide out. She loved it and walked right back up to try again.
Also at the end of August Travis's mom and I took the kids up to Bear Lake for one last time. Zach loved it and would have played forever in the water. It was a perfect day.
Aria also loves the water. She'll lay on her stomach and pretend to swim. The water is shallow enough that I don't worry to much about the kids. They can walk quite a ways before I'd have to worry about them.
The kid's cousin Max got to come with us. Sam and him played very well together and made some great sand castles.
For Labor Day we took the kids to Riverdale resort. It is great because the water is so warm. Sam would swim and jump off the sides of the pool with out help so Travis and I could take care of the twins. They will be much happier when they can float with a life jacket on their own.
My little boy is growing up fast. This is his first day of pre school. He was so excited. He loves his teacher and all the fun activities they do.
Zach and Aria are always trying to find something new to entertain themselves. This time it was to crawl in the draw and sit.
At the beginning of October I ran a 10k with some of my sisters and my friend Holly. It was so much fun and now I kinda have the bug for running. It was my first race ever and it was perfect running weather. It was at Thanksgiving point. It was fun to have my sisters there to support and encourage each other. I can't wait for the next one.
This is at the end of the race. (Me, Maria and Shea.) My sisters Lori, Amy and my brother Wade were at the finish line cheering us on. It was so good to have them there. Next year my sisters Lori and Amy are going to join us for a race. I can't wait. It will be so much fun and I can't think of anyone else I rather run with.

I cannot believe how big Samuel is now. I didn't realize him and my Carson are so close in age. The twins are adorable! So much fun!!
