our new hobby!!!

August is apparently crazy post month for me!!!!! well we actually found a hobby besides sitting our butts ha ha!!!! its skimmin and i will thank my brother for that, well the weird thing is that Dwight's family started the sport down here in st. george and his cousin is a pro skim boarder and is a huge legend so dwight better get good fast because it is in his blood. Richard gardner, dwights cousin went with them yesterday and of course i had to work so no cool pictures but dwight said they had a blast and i hope to get some amazing of him boarding. any who.. Mav loves finding the fishes, making sand castles and just digging in the mud, tonight he was bear and he was crawling through water and telling me to run away. dwight practiced his skills and i took pictures and watched my boys. I love our new hobby and just happy to be out of the house!!!

Dwight tried skiming for he first time, i went crazy with my camera as you can see and maverick found the fish in the deeper end of water and carried them around saying there not dead there sleeping.. ha ha we had tonz of fun & were totally going back soon

First day of Preschool









Maverick started preschool today and i'm sooooo excited for him!! He was so excited to go, he loved his lighting- McQueen backpack and his pencil box full of all his school supplies. He showed them off to everybody inside, dwight took his backpack off and hung it up and mav headed straight for the toys, so i'm thinking great this is going to go super, HA, i leaned down and said k i love you have a great time and dwight hugged him goodbye and then the freak out happened, it was just super and the teacher said to just go so i waved goodbye and we left. Dwight and i were kinda laughing as we left because that is our maverick mr. emotional!!! well 3 hours later we returned to a happy maverick telling us all about his day and how he learned about the letter T and painted a school bus picture. cross your finger that thursday goes just as well. I totally see him loving preschool eventually ha ha!!!!

We ate lunch at a yummy burger place and saw huge elk that was behind the place, lets just day Dwight was in heaven, he almost jumped over the fence and shot them ha ha j/k. most of these pictures are when we are actually driving it was really fun and i loved spending the day with my hubby.
