Sarah and Brent – Sarah and Brent celebrated their 3 year Anniversary together. Brent is still working for KB Distributing and just really enjoys driving his Big Rig. Brent helped his Uncle Leon re-build an old car. It’s been a lot of work but he enjoyed every minute of it. This year mom helped us buy a Travel Trailer to go camping in. We took it up the mountain and left it for the summer. He also grew a garden and for the first time we planted potatoes. They were delicious if I might add. We also grew corn and tomatoes and all the other yummy veggies, I don’t know if this was the year for us in gardening. We did have a lot of peaches this year though. We took one Saturday and it was all about bottling them. Needless to say we are so done with peaches. We made homemade Jam to it was really yummy. Sarah recently ended her service on the Head Start Policy Council. She really enjoyed being a part of such a great program. She says it really brought her out of her quiet shell. She also got a job at the SUU Head Start helping as a Lunch Aid. Sarah has really kicked off her Scrapbooking with her Cricut. She has made so many pages now she just has to put pictures on all of them and she will be doing good.

Sam is starting Math, he always asks me what 5+5 is and I say I don’t know so he tells us the answer. He is getting so smart. He loves going to school every day. Sam has made a lot of new friends this year in class. He also loves to ride the bus in the morning. He gets mad if mommy takes him to school. This year while Brent has been helping Leon with the car Sam has been going out to play with his cousin Sophie. Can I tell you how much he loves to play with her? We also have been spending a lot of time with Maddysen.
