First day of School '09

I can not help but melt my heart looking at these pics.

I can hardly believe that the first day of school is here. I am so proud of my three boys, They all went forward to day in faith. Hey were dressed and ready for the new experiences that school would bring

This is the only year all 3 boys will be in the same school.

All went well and they survived the first day of school. They are so excited to go ride the bus in the morning. We made it threw day one and are ready to conquer the rest of the days.

School Fashion Show '09

Every year in the Moffat House, right before school starts we have a school fashion show. Letting the kids try on all their new school clothes. As most of it they were more than likely not with mom when it was purchased. It gives them a chance to show off, and get excited for the up coming school year. This years fashion show took place a day earlier than I had planned, but the kids had seen me getting the clothes out of bins and begged to try on their new clothes. So on a Whim we had our '09 fashion show. Staring Madison, Mason, Marucs, and Miles Moffat. Here of sum of the fun shots from the night. Sorry it is so long, but the kids looked so darn cute, and very happy to be getting new clothes.

Mason was having just a little fun

WOW not expecting this

The boys came running in wanting to show us a suprise out side. I was not expecting what came next my 3 year old daughter riding Marcus' old bide with no training wheels. Jim then hurried to take her training wheels off her bike. She did not like riding hers with out training wheels. His must be a little stiffer. Poor Mason he still has training wheels on his. He is no where near riding with out training wheels. I don't think he really cares right now maybe in a few more years. I guess she can say her big brothers helped her start learning to ride a bike with out training wheels. Daddy is still refining the skills. We will have to see how it all works out camping this weekend with no training wheels. She threw them a way on trash day so we don't have them any more. Look at picture at Mason's feet he walk on his toes. How funny.

Slide of Yellowstone.

YELLOWSTONE AND FAMILY part 1

Tetons.

• When Nana and Papa told us that while Chad, Laura and kids were here they wanted to go to Yellowstone, I was excited to go to. It had been well over 15 years since I had been to Yellowstone, And Jim had not camped in Yellowstone since he was a kid too. So with 4 kids in tow excited about all the wonders of Yellowstone we were off. After lots of construction and a little girl begging for a potty stop (we could not in the construction as there was no turn offs) We made it to our home away from home Grant Village around noon time. With camp all set up by 1:30 we were ready to go for a drive to explore why we waited for the rest of the gang to show up. Just as we were loading up the rest of the gang showed up. Thank goodness we were not gone.

Papa proceeded to spend the next 2 hours trying to get his rather tall/large 5th wheel camper parked. After sticking it in one camp spot he decided to graciously let Jim (a professional truck driver) park it in the new camping site. So for nearly 2 hours they moved logs, placed wood to go up on others and managed to get it unstuck and parked in the next camping site. WOW. To think that we almost missed this fun/stressed filled 2 hours.

I think that Chad was kinda glad we were there so he could take the sidelines and watch the fun unfold.

Tess and Ester trying to help calm Nana's nervers

The only form of entertainment why the Adults work. They used my keys and clip them selves together. They just met for the first time in 3 years and you would think that they had been daily friends. How cute

After a long time of parking the camper, it was time to see something. So why the rest of the people set up tents and finished setting up their camps we went for a short drive to smell the sights of Yellowstone. What a fun time.

After a quick dinner of Chicken Taco soup we were able to take a quick walk down to the lake and do what else than throw rocks in the water. How extremely entertaining for little kids. Until the giant mosquitoes came out and we ran up the hill to camp again.

All in all the first day of camping in Yellowstone had is fun moments, stressful moments and even stinky moments. Only in Yellowstone.
