school starts & back to life...

ruby-duby the night before school started
getting ice cream with some friends...
had to add the pic with my eyes closed just for ruby's facial sake

had to get her in front of school and in her class!
she loves to smile with her Dracula teeth now...(note pic on left)

because she is in SECOND grade!-whoa-
i had to get her in action on her SECOND day of school too! :)

this is the highlight of her life right now-
her new shoes that she picked out and ADORES.
our dear OLD friend turned 40...
and we graced him with our presence and this yummy litter of a cake.!
the 4 letter word is for CRAP, btw...
it was hard to eat this cake-
just the thought and the premise made it nearly impossible to 'gag' down.

{honest to goodness church goers}






we had our ward camp out this last weekend in pine valley}
a beautiful and close-ish place to camp...
we did a training run up there  {side note=marathon in only 41 days!}
we were supposed to run 18 this weekend but only did 10 cuz we all got barely a wink of sleep the night before:( 
but it was a fabulous run
clear, cool air and beautiful wooded surroundings...


lots of marshmellows
followed by vigorous brushing...

it really was a pretty place, a great reservoir to fish at...
and twin boys to smile for the camera...

its hard to get back in the swing of things after such a great summer break!
gotta crack down the whip! on myself and my kids:)

Thanks for the update. I love the animal, but then, I don't have to live with him. Ruby, I love your shoes.
