Funny Faces

Owen found these glasses in Dallin's room and wanted to take some pictures. They are just the frames, no actual glass in them. Here is what we have....

Love how Owen ended it-PEACE!

First week of school down...

Everyone started school on the 24th. It seemed to go well for everyone. Shane started nursing school and that seems to be a little more than we thought it was going to be. We had to buy over 13 books for this semester for two classes. Pretty crazy. He will be going to school full time and still putting in his hours at the Sheriff's Office.

Stephen started his junior year at Northridge. We think it will be a better year for him with lots of opportunities for him to succeed. Dallin started his first year at Sunset Junior High School. He was able to find all of his classes and open his locker. His only problem was the lunch line. He wanted to go in two different lines and found out the hard way that doesn't work.

I am not going back this semester. Hopefully soon I will be able to go back and finish my two classes for my associates and then we will see about finishing a bachelors. It really seems like this month just started and now it is over. I hope that is how the next two years will go. HAHA!! At least I can wish, right?!?!

Dallin

We were out running errands today and went up on base. Shane is getting ready to leave again for two more weeks on Sunday, so he needed to get his hair cut. We have been trying to talk Dallin into cutting his nappy long hair. I told him that I would give him $100 if he cut it. He thought about it for a minute and then came over and shook my hand. We made the deal, he cut his hair, he's a hundred dollars richer and it was the best deal I made. I think he looks a lot better with shorter hair. Now he won't need to worry about combing it, even though he never really combed it anyways. LOL!

and After

The Weekend....

Shane got home Friday night just before 11 p.m. I stayed at work that night until about 10:15 since the airport is 10 minutes away. Owen was up at my parents and the other boys went and stayed with Jessica and Terry (Jessica is Shane's sister). That way I could just get Shane and then we would come home. It was so good to see his face and have him home.

Owen's birthday was really on Friday the 31st, but since Shane didn't get home until late we decided to celebrate it on Saturday. We had a little get together at our house in the back yard. Owen wanted a Cars cake that was chocolate and that is what he got. I ordered it from Harmon's and they did a great job. I think it turned out way cute.

Stephen was the one that finally broke it and then everyone dropped to the ground to get all the candy that went flying out of it.
