It's a wrap!

Well, it's official...summer vacation 2008 has come to an end.

School starts tomorrow and our days of staying up late, sleeping in (8:30 even 9 some days!), and planning our days as we go along are a thing of the past as we look toward ninth (LAST year of middle school!), seventh(FIRST year of middle school!), and fourth grades...as well as KINDERGARTEN!

We bid farewell to a lovely summer suffused with all of our traditional activities including Lagoon, the fountains at Gateway, irrigation, Sugarhouse Park, Draper Days, Scofield and St. George...and recall with fond memories American Idol and Chris's new pool. We revel in our expired status as "the new family," and will always count this summer as a turning point in establishing fabulous new friendships while forever preserving the old.



Little things will always remind us of summer 08'...any mention of Michael Phelps, or the theme song of Phineas and Ferb. Treyson's arrival, Aunt Linda's passing, anniversaries (eighteen years!), and birthdays...all encompassed within three months of relaxing, chaotic, frolicking, summertime bliss!
