Good to be Home

We really enjoyed our family and vacation and are glad to be home too.

Here's what each of us are up to:

Carleton: Enjoyed his first week in his new role at Balboa and has kept super busy. He is up very early mountain biking, running, playing racquetball, and is out at other times with his church role working with the young men. Carleton just bought and sold a beautiful bike for me. He bought it for me when I was in NM and when I got home and tried it my knees his the handle bars so he's on the lookout again.

Robyn: Back to working out with the girls and kids and has started running again-feels soooo good. Carleton and I will be running a 10k next month and will be doing a triathlon in April. I started a preschool with Apollo and his buddies and looooove it! It feels so good to prepare, plan, and do a lesson again with such cute kiddos. It's a lot to keep up with but very happy to do it. I have some amazing plans with my Dad and my company that I'll explain more about later. Mom, Heidi, and I are crafting to get ready for our Christmas boutique over Thanksgiving.

Apollo: He is enjoying the Magic Tree House book series , riding his bike, playing outside, starting preschool, and saying cute things all the time. He is a total joy to be around. He has a great zest for life. We played the Question game the other day (we just ask each other questions) and when I asked him what makes him sad he said "Going to bed." He loves dance parties and Lincoln Logs. I just asked him what his favorite thing to do just now and he answered "I like to eat apples, they're my favorite" (he's eating apples right now). A good example of Apollo-always very present and having fun in the moment.

Annie: She goes over to my friend, Katie's house to play with Anna during preschool. I'm so glad she gets to be the older girl for once. She always tells us stories (we wish we knew what she was saying) and pulls my head back to look at her with both hands if I turn away. She sits on her little potty while I go on the other potty. Now we just need to move to the next step-doing it without clothes and a diaper on. She loves dancing and babies.


Fist day of preschool.



Our hike yesterday to Holy Jim Falls.

We loved our vacation together at Bear Lake - you are such a cute family, and we loved the games and crafts we did together!

Hey, I just saw your comment on my blog and wanted to let you know that we went to Disney World, not land, so we were still over here on the east coast. Would have been neat if we could have hung out--if we're ever in your area we'll call!!
