First Term Party

Each term they have a welcome party for the new students. We decided to to go even though it didn't start until the kids bedtime. They had the party at one of the restaurants called Smoke Alley. We just stood around and visited with some of the other students and friends from church. It was fun to spend the evening with everyone and get to know a few more people. It started to rain and even though most of the restaurant was covered we all had to squish under the roofed parts. There was leaks in some of the roof too so we ended up getting pretty wet! The food ended up being an hour late and Caleb was already asleep but it was really good. Liam ended up falling asleep in my arms after that so we thought it was about time to head home! It was a fun night and I am glad we went.

The whole gang!

Liam was having fun jumping on the chair! It was right next to the water so it was making me a bit nervous!!

Liam and daddy being silly and having fun!

Relief Society

On Sundays we dont have Relief Society since we only get about 1 hr and 15 min to use the school. We do Sacrament meeting and then Sunday School. Its short and sweet. But I have really missed having Relief Society. There is just something special about it and you realize how important something really is when you no longer can have it.

We do get to have a bit of Relief Society once a month though. And I look forward to the activities a lot.

This was my first activity and it was all about our feet! We started off with a special musical number performed by Katie and Courtney Erickson! They sang If The Savior Stood Beside Me. It is one of my favorite new Children's Hymns. I learned it while I taught primary when I lived in England!

Tiff gave an amazing lesson based on the song her lovely kids sang and then Hannah gave some funny facts about feet. After that we played foot Pictionary and got our toenails painted!

Katie and Courtney singing with their beautiful voices!

Then we all had a go at foot Pictionary! It is a lot harder than it looks! But we had lots of fun doing it! First Tiff.

Toddler Tuesdays

Tuesday morning after naps all the moms get together at someones house and just let all the kids play! Its nice to hang out with other moms and really nice for the kids to play with friends. We were used to hanging out with friends, cousins, and grandparents ALL the time. So it is nice there are other families here that we can play with too!

I dont have very many pictures but the kids like to play with the toys, dance, eat freezies and watch shows.

Liam, Lucy, Remy, Fay and Eden (Or Eden and Fay - Sorry Hannah!)

We got all the kids to sit nice and quiet once we gave them Freezies!! Yum! Can definitely eat like 10 of these in one sitting! They are so good and its so HOT!

Getting some love from Hannah!

Such a cute smile :)

Pool Time

Todd and Tiff Erickson and their family have an amazing house and a pool too! So lucky!! Every Thursday morning they have invited everyone to come up for a swim! The kids love the pool and its a nice change from the beach. You dont come home with all the sand either which is a bonus!
