Happy Birthday, First Day of School

Morning pancakes for the birthday girl!  Starting the day off right!

The big 1-1, almost a youth and only one more year of primary...the awkward year when you feel to old to be in primary and activity days...

First Day Of School

Rian is in her sophmore year in high school but also means first year in the actual building of high school.  So she hits the bus early and had to grab a quick picture.

Jarom is a freshman, so really in high school, but still at Vista Middle School building.  Our garage door will measure Jarom's height each year...Tarin is 7th grade at Vista.  Raegan in 6th and Ammon in 2nd grade.  Ammon had to do his own hair today...  A great bunch of kids!  Love them and miss them already!

 After school Rian and Raegan had piano lessons in Cedar Hills.  While Rian was in her lesson, Ammon, Raegan and I went for a bike ride on the trails.  Miss this place.

Then while Raegan was in her lesson, Ammon and I hit the hammock the piano teacher, Lynsie Brown, has in her front yard.

Love my boy...

Afterwards, we finished the final touches on Raegan's birthday cake.  She did a great job!

Finally, it was family time to sing and give presents.  Thinking hard on her wish...

Because her birthday was on the first day of school, we decided to do her birthday lunch (check out of school) the next day.  Stretch out the festivities as much as possible.  :o)  Love you Bacon!
