Time keeps moving

And life just seems to be going too fast! Our kids are growing so fast and we wish family could see them more often. But we are where we are supposed to be right now. Well David is officially a SENIOR. It is so crazy and I can't believe he is in his last year of dental school. Life is just flying by and I am reminded that I need to savour all of it, the good, bad and ugly! Our kids our growing, our lives our changing and we can't go back in time. I love our life right now and have a bit of anxiety about joining the "real world" of mortgages, paying back student loans, full time jobs and all the other "grown-up" stuff that we don't have to deal with while we are in school. So here is to making the most of our last year out here and making lots of fun memories!

A lot has happened these past few weeks. We found a van out in Utah and after David's finals, he had a few days off from school, so he flew out there to drive it back. It is a Sienna (like Carrie's, but not as luxurious), and we are so excited about it. I will post pics so you guys can all see it, but of course, it would be better to see it in person, so come out and visit us (we would love any of you guys to come out and visit us anytime!) Well I had the kids for a few days without David. We missed him terribly, but the kids were wonderful and we had lots of fun. Isabel helped me plant our flower bed, and she was so cute. As you can see, she enjoys wearing her sunglasses on upside down, I have no idea why, but she sure likes to make us laugh! Brigham sat in his saucer and supervised, he was great out there and talked and squealed lots. I have a feeling he is going to love being outside as much as Isabel does.

The weekend before David left to Utah, we went out to Lake Manawa and went mushroom hunting (no luck, but it was a perfect day) and played on this great playground that is at the campground.

Brigham enjoyed the swings and was all smiles and squeals while he was in there.
Here is our little mushroom hunter. She loves to walk through the woods and talks about everything she sees. It seems like she points out every stick she sees and every bird that flies by.
