Back to School!

Wow! Just doesn't seem fair to have to go to school in July! Devyn started third grade this week. It was a crazy week- she had dance recital-yes, again-different dance studio-on Wednesday AND Thursday. We had practice on Monday and Dress Rehearsal Tuesday. All four nights she went to bed between 9:30 and 10 (bad mommy). Friday was an Angel's game, and Saturday a.m. we did a make-up dance lesson at the other studio (in case she didn't get enough dance this week!) Gotta love these kind of weeks. Don't know what I would do if I were back at work already....here is a pic of her with her best friend, Tori.

Yosemite

Yosemite was beautiful! Hiking was difficult-it was hot and I hadn't planned on struggling so much with the high altitude. They were really low on water this summer so the waterfalls were not as impressive as I had heard they had been previous summers....Devyn did awesome on the horse. Her first "real" horseback ride. The trail guide kept praising her and asking her if she had ridden before to which she confidently replied "yes" (I hardly call riding in a ring with a guide "riding") Her horse decided to go off of the trail at one point. I would have freaked but she just steered the horse back on the trail. Amazing. I was looking forward to scrapping this pic but sadly they got "lost". Miraculously, after 3 hours of my husband trying to retrieve them, my step-dad somehow managed to.....thanks BOB!!
