Field Trip

For our field trip this month we went to the Big Red Barn in Santaquin. They have a good size orchard that we got to take a tour of and pick fresh apples. They had a maze for the kids to run around in, and a fun hay ride. Once again our kids learned that fresh produce is so much better than store bought.

Family Fun Day

For our Family Fun Day we went up the canyon to Diamond Fork Campground. I think this is our new favorite camping site. We took a walk down to the creek, they have a discovery trail for the kids there. They have signs posted and you look for bugs, plants and such. Andy enjoyed skipping rocks. Ellyn loved looking for rocks to take home. Kelsey liked being snuggled up next to mom.

"Does this stick make my butt look big?"

Oh mama!

I wanted to sit down and get caught up on the blog. We have had some fun things going on around here the past 6 weeks. I have many great pictures, and fun stories. But my brain is just mush. Is it lack of sleep? (she is sleeping great, wakes up just once in the night. but i need some real uninterrupted sleep), is it being so busy; 3 kids, schooling two of them and one baby that keeps me busy? Or is it just mommy overload? I think a little of each. As moms we have so much to do, but do we have to do it all. Oh, I hope not, I don't have that much energy. This is a new season in my life, a busy one. I just have to come to terms with that and i know it will get better, at least that is what I tell myself to get me through the days. I also know that it is by the Grace of God that I get through the days, get anything done and have a good attitude (most days.) No matter how bad the day has been, or how long the night seems there is always a new day. And I some cute faces that I get to see each day.
