Aubrey's 1st Day Of Preschool
Aubrey has started a co-op preschool with some other girls from our ward - here she is all ready to go - Luke thought he needed his picture taken as well, no smiles from him though - just a goofy face! Aubrey has grown so big, so fast - she'll be 4 before I know it! She's a girly girl down to her toes, but don't let that angelic face fool ya, she holds her own against her brothers, and causes her own mischievousness as well! 
Last week was our Young Women in Excellence! (I'm 2nd counselor) Our theme was the Emma Awards, like the Emmy Awards, w/a red carpet to boot! Mike made us this gorgeous 30' red carpet and the carpet on the wall too! What an awesome husband I have - he's going to kill me for posting this! ;) Oh, and excuse my shoes that I caught in the pics! Unrolling and placing that carpet just right was too much to keep them on!
Nursery Time!!
So Luke turned 18 months on the 25th of September - that means Nursery time!! Luke has gotten to be quite the monster at church. He has no sense of an "inside voice", "quit pulling Aubrey's hair", and "no, you can not haul off during the church meetings and run amok through the chapel". Luke has been our smoothest 1st day of Nursery yet. He walked in like he owned the place and even jabbered back to the Nursery leader as she welcomed him in. Throughout the next meetings I sat by the doors anticipating a peek in from his teacher asking me to come and get him - but there wasn't a "peek"! He did wonderfully, thanks in part to an awesome teacher! That night I decided his hair needed a trim - I love little boys with longer hair, but sadly, Luke's hair does not want to lay down and stay combed, so off it went and up went the spikes! His hair is so light, it's a bit hard to tell, so the inside shots are his after and the outside shots are his before. Luke's enthusiasm for everything is so contagious. If you're in a bad mood, or ticked about something, play with him for 5 minutes and that all disappears! I love this kid - so dang cute!;)
We're headed to Cali!
We're headed out to California!! My beautiful niece i s getting baptized on Saturday! We love you Caitlyn!! Before we leave I just wanted to stick this pic onto our blog. It was grandparents day at Caleb's school last week - since g & g are in California , Mike, being the good daddy he is , went with Caleb. Ah Mike, congrats on being a grandparent - 
Fun Times
So here's how our week was! All smiles and play! Sooner or later Aubrey will always finds a place to crash and Luke somehow loses his clothes!
Potty Tormenting
This morning I heard a certain little girls voice yelling "No Luke!", so I ran to the downstairs bathroom to witness this - who says 18 month-olds don't know how to torment! Maybe Aubrey will shut the door from now on!
Big boy bike riding
Caleb decided it was time to say goodbye to the training wheels! He wants to show his Grandma Jones that he can ride without them when we see her next week. He told me that he needs to practice everyday when daddy gets home. Apparently I am not strong enough to help him! Aubrey just looks so cute on her bike, I had to put a pic of her in there too, barefoot of course!
Due to thunderstorms and flash flood warnings our labor day camping plans were put on hold. On Monday we decided to travel down to the Virgin River to picnic and let the kids swim. This might have been one of our worst ideas ever. The Virgin River is not like the clear beautiful rivers in California. This river is a muddy, murky mess. Since we just drove for an hour and a half we decided to make the most of it. We had to hike down a hillside just to get to the water. 8 trips later all of gear was set up and the bbq hot for our hot dogs, that were sitting at home in our fridge! We were exhaused, hot and muddy but the kids had a ball!
