Memorial Day

We went to the cemetery in Charleston to see my parents. Normally I'm not sad when I go to the gravesites but this time I really wanted to cry. I miss them a ton. Afterwards we went to Bridal Veil Falls for a picnic and to hike to the falls. After that we went to see Scottie's gravesite as well. It was CRAZY! There were so many people that and thousands of flowers it was really neat. The cemetery where my parents are is small compared to where Scotty is. Then we went to Ryan and Hailey's for dinner. Ryan makes the best burgers in the world. So I don't need to eat for a couple of days because I'm still full from last night!!

Preschool Graduation

Khloe is not my little baby anymore!! Wednesday she graduated from preschool. I can't believe I have a kindergartener.

I love Flock of Seagulls!

Khloe did Gage's hair the other day and all she used was water. His hair stayed like this for two days. I buzzed his hair today because I couldn't think of anything else to do!

This is a great book!

When we lived in Washington, Brett's cousin came to visit with some friends. As a token of their apprication for picking them up from the airport, they gave us this book and some other things. I read it then (which was about 5 years ago). I only rememebered a certain part, about world population and producing more food. I just got done reading it again, and it really has opened my eyes to how things are going to be if we don't stop doing what we are doing to the world. This is just a great book to read, I know the author has some other books along the same lines that I have yet to read, so I guess I'll be making some trips to the library. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I do.

What a wonder!!

I love trees, and who doesn't!! I really miss all the evergreen trees in Washington. It's just not green enough here. I also miss working with the trees and plants. That's one of the reasons I would like to go back to school. I want to be able to learn more about the native plants of Utah and to work with them. I didn't take any of these pictures, they are just ones I found on the web. I would really like to go see the angel oak in South Carolina.

What to do, what to do?

I'm debating wether to go back to school. I really would like to finish my degree in horticulture. I don't know what I would do with it. I've been doing some research and Utah state is the only school that offers the degree I want but the program had off-campus so I wouldn't have to drive to Logan for classes (because that just not realistic). Brett and I have talked about this alot. Do I finish my degree and then go to work? It would be nice to have two incomes but at the same time do we want someone else raising our kids? Who knows, I think this is going to be a debate that is far from over. Does anyone have any good ideas or advice?

Outside fun inside!!

We went to Ikea yesterday for something to do, we picked up this fun tent for $10!! So far the kids have had lots of fun with it.
