It's almost been a MONTH!?!? (watch out it's a long one)

Holy cow how time flies!  It has been almost a month since my last post, and so much has happened in that little time!  Let me start where I left off...  

We celebrated Josslyn's 1st birthday on Aug. 15th!  I can't believe my baby is already 1.  For her birthday we went to Rigatony's for dinner with her Gma's, a couple of Aunts, and of course our (not so little) little family! She had a special delivery during the day from her Gpa Ted, which we took to the restaurant for a special b-day centerpiece.  She also got some cute clothes, a new ride on pony scooter, a baby doll with a stroller, and a special homemade blankey for her baby.

A week or so later on the 23rd we celebrated Parker's birthday (which is actually on the 24th) with a party for some friends and cousins.  We had a little get together for cake & ice cream & presents, then we took the kids to see the new Star Wars Clone Wars movie.  It was a big hit!  Thanks to all who came and participated!  (He got too many things to list)

On the 26th, Evrett started back to school!  The long awaited day finally arrived and he was so excited to go back.  It does pose a challenge though for Mom because two days out of the week, Ev and Parker get out of school at the same time, so we have had to do some changing of the way things go down after school, but it seems to be working alright for now.  

The following weekend (Labor Day weekend) was the big annual Burk/Lake Powell/houseboat trip.  I wasn't feeling up for the challenge, but Trev (the trooper that he is) took all three boys for the long weekend and had a blast!  I don't think we have picts of it, but apparently Parker is quite the tube rider.  Thank you Burk family for always having great family get-togethers!  Joss and I stayed home and did some school shopping, got some extra sleep, and just relaxed.  We were glad to have the boys back though!  

On Sept. 3rd my baby boy started Preschool.  It seems so strange to be sending a 2 year old off with a strange bus driver, and to a place with strangers for 2 and a half hours.  But I guess that is what we do when they are older.  It was just hard for me to let him go for some reason!  It's funny to watch him when he gets home from school because he thinks he is big and does exactly the same things he sees his brothers do when they get home.  They grow up too fast! 

The following weekend (last weekend) I went to California with my Sister-In-Law Tiff and her daughters Chelsea and Sydney.  Chelsea turned 21 on the 4th, so we had a little "girls getaway" weekend.  We stayed with my Sister Lori and her family.  It was lots of fun!  We ate out a lot, went to the beach, got a pedi, and even went and saw Mama Mia!  Good times!  

This past Monday, the 8th my Sister-In-Law Nichole, brought the two newest members of the Nuttall family into the world.  Lucy Jane and Sawyer Ridge were born early Monday morning.  Treven and I went to the hospital on Tuesday evening to check them out and let me just say they are adorable! How fun to have two new babies.  Chad and Nic already have 3 beautiful girls, so they are really excited to have themselves a boy!  They are excited for Lucy of course too!  Parker is also really excited to finally have a boy cousin on the Nuttall side.  

That about brings us up to date for now... so hopefully it won't be another month before I get myself back on here.
