August has been a busy month (so were July and June) but this post is about August. Today was the first day of school. Jared is down at BYU and started class today. I didn't get a picture of him. Tanner started 11th grade and he left early so I didn't get a picture of him either. Rachel started 9th grade and she left even earlier so I didn't get a picture of her. By the time Rebecca and Adam were ready to leave I did remember about the camera so I have a cute first-day-of-school picture of them. Rebecca is in 6th grade and Adam is in 2nd grade. Everyone is growing up so fast!!
In the middle of August we went on a family vacation on a Disney Cruise to the Bahamas. We took all six kids and had a fabulous time!! It was everything I expected and more. I've included a short slideshow to give you an idea of how fun it was.

After the cruise, we had one week until school started. During that week, we had a visit from Steven, Linda and Griffey. While they were here, we had dinner with the Arnolds.
Rebecca got her braces off and she looks so cute. She had her braids done while on the cruise (half of them anyway). I finished the rest after we got home.
Also during that week, Jared officially got engaged to Tori Blonquist. We are so excited and the wedding is set for December 20th.
Now we are getting Josh ready to go on his mission in October. Life never seems to slow down but it sure is fun.
