but, it’s beautiful chaos…

over labor-day weekend,

we met up with friends for some campfire time.
{you can see more pics here}
our favorite campfire treat totally trumps a s’more!
we make banana boats

that are deee–lish–ious!

recipe:

take a banana, leave the peel on, and slice it right down the middle.
place in foil, fill the banana with chocolate and marshmallows
wrap it up in the foil,
place it in the campfire
and a few minutes later…

back to school night, the excitement of seeing all the
new classrooms for the year~

this year, we all attended sela’s preschool open house,
she is in love with her special school bag.
sela gets to have ‘show ‘n tell’ everyday…
the day before her first day of school, i explained show ‘n tell to her…
grasping the idea she went running to her room, to choose an item,
passing kiana she said,

“i get to have show ‘n tell at my school!!! and you don’t weirdo!!!”

{she thinks she’s the bomb. we do too.}

kj & myla’s back to school night at our elementary…

being the youngest in a family can be rough…

for the past couple of years, sela wakes up everyday and asks,

“what am i doing today, momma?”

she’s hoping there is something just for her! i try to plan her regular play dates, and we get out to the library, etc. but typically i respond with something like,

“well, you can come downstairs and exercise with me, then you’re going to hang out with grandma while i go to class. then we’re going to pick the kids up from school, go to art, piano, take kiana to dance. then myla and kj have tennis…you get to go to kj’s baseball game!”

in years past, i’ve nearly begged my kids to perform for the school talent show.

but this year…

kj came home from school and with total excitement told me there was going to be a first grade talent show, and he signed up to play the piano!

so…

last week, once again, he performed his ‘warm-up on C’. like a pro!

our kids’ school just had their second annual dance festival.

each grade performed a different genre of dance.
kiana’s class was all snazzy, dancing to ‘surfin’ USA’ by the beach boys, myla’s class did their square dance-inspired piece from their program, kj’s class did an african dance.

they were all cute dances, and best of all, it was a beautiful sunny morning!

the day before, may 24th, we woke up to 4″ of snow, and damaged trees, fallen from the snow/wind storm the night before.

that’s springtime in utah!

did a fabulous job with her fellow fourth graders in their year-end class program.

myla’s class has studied utah history all year, so the program was packed with forty-five minutes of songs, and dancing all relating to utah.

sela stood on her seat and danced along the entire time.

myla was adorable! a part of her soul would truly be happy being a cowgirl.

love my moosey!
