The Yeates Family

OuTiNgS

[our latest outings were to the zoo with my dear friends Kim and Holly (& kids)]

[cole's favorite animal]

[aaron's favorite animal]

[and the circus with the Swensons]

[aaron asked if we could do it all again today...I think he liked it! :) As did the rest of us.]

#18 CoMpLeTe A hOuSe PrOjEcT

Completed. How about a backsplash instead of just the painted wall?

We had some help on this one...but I am glad we did it. I love the outcome. Josh is still cursing me for my "projects" I make him help me with. I may give him a break for a while.

Colers ate alot of crackers while he watched so we could finish!

check. I decided to write a ward missionary since I have no family out on missions. He is the brother of one of the Laurels in my class and she misses him so I thought I would write and tell him that :) and some other stuff...

Aaron tried on Annelise's glasses...and I just had to take this...if he had longer hair...he could be mistaken for his sister.

MoRe SoCcEr

Since soccer started, I am finding so many coloring pictures and writings that say how much she loves it. I am so glad, and she is improving alot too. Aaron loves going to watch the games, and Josh most certainly gets into the games. It is funny...he is the typical soccer dad. :)

[The morning started just like any other...]

[And then Aaron had his first day of preschool...and luckily he was excited to see his teachers again.]

DiNoSaUr PaRk

[Last ditch attempt to do something fun with my boys before school started]
[It worked! It was super fun. And I caught a sweet picture of Cole and Aaron running from an exibit that looked like they were afraid the whole time! They weren't though....well, most the time :)]

Other than getting to take care of this cute little doggy Bodie,

we spend a night in Midway at the Zermott Resort with the Menloves. It is just so beautiful up there it is amazing. I can see why the Swiss settled there! Josh and Justin went golfing, we went swimming, and ate a yummy restaurant. Our kids tend to wake up earlier than normal on vacation so we were pretty tired the next day. Infact, at lunch Josh fell asleep at the table and we all threw Cheerios down his shirt. That's what you get for falling asleep! I do love Midway, and the Menloves!

[Justin missed our picture opportunity! (I think it was on purpose)]

[aren't they the cutest family?]

FiRsT DaY oF sChOoL

Annelise had her first day of school last week. After the first day she wasn't sure she liked first grade...but after the second day she reported to love her teacher and school! I am so glad. She has a couple of old friends in her class and I already love her teacher, Ms. Hellewell. Annelise did ask me before the week started if she had morning or afternoon first grade...oops...I have since informed her that it is all day. Luckily, she liked eating her lunch at school with her friends. I do miss her here at home...and so did her brothers. They both were so excited when she came home that first day...we waited on the steps and Aaron screamed for joy when he saw her and Cole was jumping.
