Some Much Needed Time for Mommy with her Boys













A few days ago we were all going a little crazy after so many days cooped up in the house trying to get unpacked, so we headed for the hills. Just 5 minutes away is the most awesome singletrack mountain biking/hiking trail that goes around Folsom Lake. The boys went wild when they saw the trail, the wide open spaces, some sticks to beat the forest with, and the lake to throw rocks in. They were in heaven and so was I just watching them. Sadly, the water level of the lake is desperately low and we are in need of lots of rain. Thankfully, it's been raining quite a bit the last week or so and should continue for a while.

There is nothing like taking little boys outside after being cooped up in the winter. . .that spells sanity for EVERYONE:)

So Glad you updated your blog! Your house looks wonderful! Looks big to me...maybe not as big as your last but hey...it's CA. That's what we'll be doing...lot's of small trips to the new house. I'll tell you more later!

Glad to see you all are getting settled. I could never move from Utah but I love Cali to visit. Enjoy. Its probably pretty warm too.

You look like you and your boys are in your element! It looks beautiful there. I am glad that you were able to finally get settled in your own home! We miss you!

I miss you, too! We took the YW/YM to Brianhead skiing and we all thought of you. Girls camp is coming up - won't be the same w/out you! Looks like you're all settled in - hooray! Remember, we have an extra room or two... :)

Your boys are getting so big! I'm glad you found some open space, even though there wasn't any red sand to take home in your socks.
Woohoo on the Kanab hoodie.
Miss and love you.
