Bad blogger part 1

It has been so long since I have written. It seems as if I just skipped fall, I didn't though. We have just been busy and I never sat down and journaled our life. I am sad about that because this is my only journal. I don't want to marathon blog because I am sure that I will forget something important but oh well. August The kids went back to school. Morgan started 4th grade, she get her very own locker and loves school. She has made a lot of new friends this year. She likes her teacher and is doing very well. Morgan is such a smart kid! Koby is a junior in high school. He has several difficult classes but is doing well. UVU is back in session and I am swamped at work but my new awesome boss encourages me to take an advanced excel class. Steve takes a fun camping trip with his brother Brian and a couple of friends (Frank and Joe). They got to visit southern Utah and saw some beautiful sites and enjoyed hiking and the great outdoors. Maylee loves to go to Becky's (babysitter) house and has so many friends to play with each day. September My sweet baby nephew Kyler is born! Morgan starts her soccer season and got to play on a great team-they had several wins and a fun season. Morgan also joined the school dance club and has practice 2x a week, she really enjoys it. Koby decided he wanted a part time job and started working at a pizza joint a few evenings a week as a bus boy and dish washer. He brings home yummy leftovers all the time but so far we haven't gone and eaten dinner there while he is working. He seems to think that may be embarrassing. We had an amazing opportunity to go to the Ogden temple open house before the temple was rededicated. It was a beautiful experience and very inspiring. October Fall passes by so fast. Koby is busy with work and school and dating. We are struggling with coordinating three drivers and two cars, three jobs and way too many activities, so we decide to purchase a new car for Steve. We found Steve a nice Nissan car and Koby inherits the Elantra. The girls and I got to make a weekend trip to visit Papa and Grandpa on the farm. We made the annual trek to the pumpkin patch with cousins. Sadly, Dad and Koby had to stay home and work. The girls were so excited for Halloween and started planning their costumes early-like July early. Maylee decided to be a princess and a ballerina. She ended up with three costume changes. Morgan was a witch-green face and crazy ratted hair. They got plenty of candy and enjoyed dressing up numerous times for parties, parades and trick or treating. While Koby was out on a date, the rest of us got to go to Cornbelly's. It was a blast! I dragged everyone up into the mountains for a picnic and pictures. Just a few of my favorites. Stay tuned for part two...
