OverHeard

Yesterday while I was upstairs straightening my hair, Brian and Bentley were downstairs straightening up. I overheard Bentley talking to Brian, this is what he had to say...

Bentley: "Dad we better get this shiny and clean so mom's happy."

I started laughing hysterically. Boy he sure knows his mom well.

Bridal Veil Falls

On Sunday my dad came over and we hiked up to Bridal Veil Falls. Bentley quite enjoyed it. It was nice to get up close to the fall and feel the mist blow on us.

Random Words From Bentley

Brian and I have been trying to get Bentley to stop sucking his thumb, well the other day we caught him sucking his thumb and told him to stop-his reply "My thumb needs a shower"

Where Has the Summer Gone?!

Wow, it's been awhile since I've blogged. It's now only a week and a half until I go back to work. It's kind of a bitter sweet feeling. I'm excited to have a new class and to try out new things, but I'm also very sad to be leaving Bentley and losing my freedom.
Even though summer has gone extremely fast, we've had lots of fun. Bentley and I have gone to the pool a few times, we've had Barbecues and game nights with friends, stayed up late about every night watching movies.
On June 30th, Bentley turned 4. I can't believe my little boy is 4!! He is growing up way to fast. He is still into Batman and Indiana Jones. He dresses up like them all of the time and truly thinks he's them. This is definitely a fun stage.
On the 24th of July, I ran in the Speedy Spaniard and Bentley ran his first race. He ran the 1 mile kids run and loved it. He's always talking about me racing/running, so we decided we'd enter him into a race. His race started right after I crossed the finish line of the Speedy Spaniard. Brian ran the race with him and said he did great.
We also went on a weekend trip to Park City with our friends. While the boys went mountain biking at Deer Valley resort, I enjoyed a day of shopping. I totally enjoyed every minute of it. The rest of the trip was, well, we'll say it was interesting, but very fun.
The last few days I've been trying to get my classroom together. I honestly can not believe the summer is almost over. I absolutely love the freedom that the summer brings and I am definitely going to miss it.
This fall Bentley will be going to the preschool at my school. I'm excited that he'll be right down the hall from me (2 days a week). I'll be able to see him at recess.
I'm going to enjoy this last week and a half. Brian and I are celebrating our 5 year anniversary next week. WOW, what a way to end the summer.
