First Day of School 2011

It's hard to believe school days are

here again!! I think everyone was

pretty excited for the first day.

This school year brought some changes for us:

                                  The boys started middle school!!

 (Are they old enough?:) )

 Marissa started first grade!! She is going to be gone all day!





BROWN FAMILY REUNION JULY 2011

We got to spend four days at a beautiful
cabin in Utah as a family. (minus a few of the brother
in-laws). We really had a good time. It is nice to be together!

We kept busy doing all sorts of fun stuff!!

Riding the 4-wheelers was a favorite-Thanks to the
some of the adults and the big kids everyone got a turn!

Aunt Lorilee brought 'Minute To Win It' games for us to play.
It was fun to see Gram & Pa play "Junk in the Trunk" :)

We had a blast playing "Just Dance" on the Wii.

The cabin had a HUGE playroom that kept

the kids busy for hours. It had a bump and jump

and a rope swing that we all took turns

climbing one afternoon! It even had a slide that went

to the basement.

Thanks for the fun memories!!

Picnic on the Mesa

A few weeks ago we
drove up to the Mesa for
a picnic and a hike. It is
always nice to get out of town
and enjoy the cool mountain air
and the beautiful scenery.        

                      

JULY 2011

Back-To-School Dates

I always take an opportunity right before
school starts to take each child on a little date.
Or as the boys call it "mother-son bonding time". :)
This year I took them out to lunch, to get their
school supplies and to buy some new clothes
to wear for the first day of school.
It is always fun to spend some one on one
time with each of my kids!!

(He is always being silly ! :) )

Fruita All-Stars

Corban made the all-stars team this year.

It was a lot of work, they practiced 6 days

a week from 4:00-6:00 (in the 100 degree weather)

for 3 weeks. They did well in the tournament;

they placed 4th.

   

Good job Corban!!
