Just stuff....

I can't sleep and I've been trying not to post today because I'm beginning to think the only reason we do anything for family night is so that I have something to blog about or that I'm just bragging on how cute my kids are or whatever. But since I can't sleep I figured I may as well give in....First, I got an A- (90/100, that's an A-, right) on my latest paper critiquing a Sylvia Plath poem called "Daddy" very intense and way out of my league but for some reason it 'sang' to me and I chose that poem. I felt good about it and felt even better when I got my grade. Yeah, me!



Lily is suddenly signing! She signs 'milk', 'eat', and 'more'! It is so cute! She is a gal of very few words so I was very excited about that! We are still working on 'mama' and 'dada' but, dang, she is cute!!
Monday (Oh, here she goes...) we went up Millcreek canyon! GORGEOUS! I love the mountains and I love them even more in the fall! We were wishing we lived down the street so we could enjoy them more. Every time I go up that canyon it takes me back to my mountain biking days. There are some great trails up there and I miss doing that every time I go up there! We got some great pictures and the kids love it up there! We even made an impromptu fire just for the heck of it!

And lastly, this is what happens when 2 6 year olds get a hold of your camera when you aren't looking. There were many more that I deleted but let this be a warning to you all!!!

I love the pictures-that canyon is gorgeous! What are you studying in school? I have always wanted to read
Sylvia Plath, but still never have. I thought I would start with the Bell Jar, but maybe I should try some poetry first... Audrey is so cute! Wasn't she just a baby?

Awesome pictures - love the mountains in the fall (anytime really). I found that this was something I had really missed about Utah when I was there. I would find myself staring at them as often as I could and I just couldn't get enough.

Great pictures of Erin and Audrey - those silly girls!!! I will have to show Madi when she gets home from school!
