September 2023

I guess we start out September with my birthday.  This year was a big one because I turned 50!  When I told my kids I was a half a century old Siena replied "Mom don't say that it makes you sound old!"  haha...well I guess I'm old.  I don't feel like I'm 50 so I guess that is the good news.  I spent the day working and then going out to dinner and making smores with the fire pit Shane got me for my birthday.  The next night I got tickets to go see Peter Breinholt in concert with Jennifer and Brigitte and Tyler.  It was a fun night since I hadn't seen Peter in quite a while.

Just a cute picture of all the adults in my family since Christy was in town or a family dinner.

Aria and I went to Courage Reigns fundraiser event one Saturday.  It was fun to walk around and see the horses and Aria got to pet one and do a little craft.  She wants to volunteer there so bad but you have to be 14, so a couple more years!

Grandma and Grandpa always supporting the kids at their soccer games.  They always try to come to at least one game per season.

The girls signed up to do a ChalkArt parking lot event at Ridgeline.  I helped get them started but then they did the rest by themselves.  I thought it turned out so cute and it was a fun event they got to do together.

Because we are season passholders this year at Lagoon, we got to go up and ride the new ride on a weekday when they were closed.  They had promised Primordial would open this summer and it took all summer to get it done so when it didn open they offered sign up times for season passholders to come ride it.  It was a long drive for just a quick ride but the kids were so excited to be one of the first ones to ride it.

We took a Sunday drive up the canyon to see the leaves turning and went on a walk around Tibblefork Reservoir.  The leaves were so pretty and it was fun to get out of the house and enjoy nature.

Aria continues to take horse lessons.  We've been going to a college girl named Aimee who is right in Highland so it's been a good change for Aria and she has been taking lessons with our neighbor Lisbon and another girl in our neighborhood June.

Jaron participated in his first Pinewood Derby race at Westfield.  He had fun racing his car with his friend Parker even though he didn't win any awards.

We did a night at Frightmares at Lagoon at the end of the month.  Jaron had a soccer game up past Lagoon so we dropped the girls off on the way to the game and they met up with Michelle and Lilly then after the game we came back with Jaron and his teammate Lincoln and spent the rest of the night there.
