The week began with a scout court of honor where our 12-year-old advanced to Star rank and earned a fist-full of merit badges he's been working on all summer.
Don't have a picture, but John took Garrett and a few friends to St. George for a couple of days for their last summer adventure.
Can't believe the first football game of the season snuck up and Hailey began her Jr. year with a new cheer squad. She's grown a lot since last year but still small enough to be a flyer.
Garrett and friends hanging in the football stands... unfortunately Woods Cross lost to Viewmont in overtime by a field goal. Blehhhh!
Our ward had a service project bazaar at Dick's Market on Saturday to raise money for a Bountiful school that really struggles due to socio-economic issues. John willingly got into the dunking booth and Grayson threw the first ball.
It was worth the money he paid for tickets...
I am ready for school to start so we can get back on SOME KIND OF SCHEDULE!!!
First day of school for Senior Garrett, Junior Hailey and 7th Grader Grayson. Does my baby really look big enough to be in Jr. High????? (However, I think his shoes look big enough...)
Grayson left the house at 7:30 to catch the 7:42 bus a block away so he sat down to wait and lighten his load. (I truly felt bad for him and almost wished he had a transient grocery cart to load everything he needed to take...)
I went to breakfast with a bunch of happy (and a few sad) moms that also sent their children off for the day. I looked forward to after school when they all came home and talked about their 1st day with each other for 30 minutes--happy with teachers, classes and friends. BUT.. I would be lying if I didn't say I thoroughly enjoyed the 7-1/2 hours of quiet beforehand...
