LIFE

So life takes over sometimes and you don't know where the days have gone. We are back into the routine of school/homework. Tyler had his birthday at the end of August and turned 7. He was so excited! My sister was in town and we all went out to dinner and just enjoyed being together. Then Carter started preschool and loves it. Mommy loves it too! I am teaching again and I am having a blast. I have 8 students including Carter every Tues./Thurs. It is what I love to do and I really enjoy it!
The other days of the week I go into Tyler's classroom and help out. Then I watch a friends kids so she can go into her son's class (we do a little swap). So I really only have day with nothing to do. I am sure it will fill up with something though!
Soccer is also going on. We are at practice a couple of nights a week. That means there are also two different games we have to be at on Saturdays. So there go our weekends. It is a fun busy life but we love it. Our boys are growing up so fast and we are so proud of them. We love our boys!

Tyler wanted a Lego birthday cake. So this is the best I could do!

9 Years

It is hard to believe that 9 years ago we were just two young people in LOVE. Now 9 years later we are happily married and have three little rambunctious boys running around the house. Time sure does fly by! Matt has been traveling a lot lately for work so I squeezed in a little getaway for our anniversary.
I found this awesome deal online for a Bed and Breakfast up in Sacramento. Matt was up there all week so I dropped off the boys at my Mom's and then headed up North to meet Matt.
We have never been to a Bed and Breakfast so I was excited to try something new. They also had a spa on the site but Matt wasn't too sure about getting a massage. We did get chocolate covered strawberries that were divine. Our room was a little smaller then I thought but it was still really nice. I loved the BIG jetted tub! It was awesome.
We walked around Downtown Sacramento and just enjoyed being with each others company. Breakfast was little awkward with the other guests but we made it through and the food was so delicious.  We always go and do sealings at the temple for our anniversary but it was closed which was a bummer.  So we just hung around town and went shopping.  Since Matt didn't want to get a massage I took him to get a pedicure. He was not too sure about it and looked very uncomfortable while we were there but he did enjoy it!
It was nice to getaway for a day without the boys. They had a blast at Grandma's with their cousins. Thanks Mom and Katie for your help.
 Now I am ready for another 90 years together!
