A glimpse of the end of summer for the Olsen Clan. The First Day of School, Austin-High School -10th Grade , Lacey-JrHigh- 7th Grade, Tanner - 2nd Grade. Tanner's 8th Birthday and his baptism on the 5th of September. So far we are settling into fall pretty well.
We started the day with Tanner and Brennan turning a box into a rocket ship, and ended the day in the Emergency Room when Tanners hand met up with a dogs mouth. Oh, the roller coaster ride that is childhood.

Tuesday night Lacey graduated the 6th Grade. She got to be one of the speakers, which made us very proud. School got out on Friday. Bring on Summer!
We took a fun 1/2 day trip to Cedar Mountain last week. It was sort of a trip down memory lane for Alana as it was one of Grandpa and Grandma Cox's favorite day trips when she was a little girl and would visit from Idaho, Grandma would pack a picnic lunch and we would spend the day finding sparkley rocks, cactus, snail shells and the occasional lizard or two and anything else that would fascinate the 7 and under crowd. I found out that I am not any fonder of the height of the overlook that I was as a child, but what an awesome beautiful view of the San Rafael Swell.
Austin graduated Ninth Grade last night, he received the award for outstanding English Student for the Ninth Grade, I can' believe how fast his life is passing me by.
