September




We have been so busy this month. The biggest news is that my parents got to come for a visit and spend a few weeks here. We loved having the company and showing them around. We mostly just hung out together, but we did make it to a Twins Game and we took them to the Mall of America a few times.

Kate on her first day of School

Kiley and Kate
The kids all started school and they are really happy with their teachers and friends this year. The schools here are just so good and the teachers-excellent. Kate is in half day kindergarten so next year when she is full time, it's back to the books for me and I will start working on something...

Kate was so excited to lose her first tooth this month. She begged and begged Jason to pull it out and she was so brave when he finally got it.

Mike and Lara came to visit this month too with their sweet kids. We roasted marshmallows out back in the fire pit and made some smores. It was so good to see them. We miss them and our other friends from Racine. Lara gave me the best birthday present ever and I haven't had to cook for a few weeks. She made me all these frozen meals and desserts and stuff. YUM! She knows how much I loathe cooking. Thanks, Lara! I am totally spoiled by you.



I am going to be making my blog private soon so if you would like an invitation to view my blog in the future, send me an email or leave a comment with your email address and I will send you an invite.

Hey Kerr! Been thinking about you. I was going to call you today. But I went to get your number off the paper on the fridge where I was keeping it. And it was gone! Rats. That's why I usually just try to memorize numbers, so I don't lose them. Anyway, I'd love to chat when you get a chance. Missing you, call me sometime. Love,Kamber

Kerri, all of your pictures are so cute, and I just barely saw the post where you posted that pic of us when we were itty bitty!! I LOVED it! Thanks so much for sharing those with me! Sure do love you, and hope you're doing well!

Kerri--I'm delighted that your mom and dad got to spend time with you like that. Your mom wrote a wonderful little letter to all of us "Relief Society" folks, telling us they came to see you and they're now settling in in Boise, (and expressing her thanks.) I would like to be able to continue to read your blog sometimes, so put me down as "invited"....OK? (karen@imperialasphalt.com) Love, Kam's Mom
(p.s. I don't up-date my own blog. I don't have a working camera....I just use the blog for "address purposes".)
