Get ready, because this is going to be a two-post kind of week. All the kids went back to school today and the sense of freedom is palpable. Ahhh. Life can be normal again. With the Covid stuff it seems like it has been a long time. Hopefully it lasts.
For us, the last week of summer was filled with activity. The biggest thing was that we went to Utah, where Rachel and I went to an adults-only reunion with all my siblings. The kids stayed with Rachel's mom, and it was nice to get some uninterrupted time in with everyone without having to worry about nap schedules, bumps, mealtimes, or other little things that come along with a bunch of young children (mostly other people's at this point) hanging around.
Here are some photos. Also, stay tuned for Rachel's update on each of the kids later this week.

| We didn't get a ton of photos of our weekend, but this was on a hike we did to a small mountain lake (different than Bear Lake). Rachel and a few others decided to test the waters. As for me...I didn't need to jump in to know it was really freaking cold. |
 |
| This is at a play we saw at a local family theatre. Lots of laughs all around. |
 |
| The kids had a great time with Grandma Almond. Here, they are making chain mail (like the kind that knights wore in the dark ages) |
 |
| Rachel took the kids to Silverwood one last time |
 |
| At Silverwood they all tried the new rollercoaster. This shows their respective feelings about it. |
 |
| And then there is this sad little picture. But sad in a kind-of cool way too. For a while, Evelyn has been wanting to cut her hair short. Well, it finally happened. Stay tuned for more photos later this week. She has developed a style all her own that really showcases her confidence, and I think it's kind-of neat. |
Alright- Have a good week!
