O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles. Psalms 43:3

And as all have not faith, seek ye diligently and teach one another words of wisdom; yea, seek ye out of the best books words of wisdom; seek learning, even by study and also by faith. D&C 88:118

New School Year, New Adventures

After 3 years off, I am going to do a bit more blogging. We are headed out on a giant roadtrip and my family wants to see what we are up to. We shall see how I do ;)

So, brief update, Tiger is now 16 and driving, Butterfly is 14 and working hard on becoming an author, Pumpkin Pie is now 12 and loving Young Womens and still loves karate, Strawberry is 9 (ok she will be 9 in less than a month) and loves to listen to audiobooks on "Spare Oom" (our locked down kindle fire with nothing but audiobooks and soon some picture books to read in the car), and Little One, who isn't so little and will henceforth be Bug, is now 5 and reading everything he can over everyone's shoulders. He no longer wishes to be a dinosaur or a dinosaur pilot when he grows up, but he plans to own a tower crane.
In other news, in June we moved 40 miles to a new home. We love our new home, but we had to say goodbye to our old one. Goodbye old home:
In the past, we used to line up by the garage door and take first day of our new school year photos, the kids wanted one last photo there. The lighting was pretty bad, so there is a bit of squinting eyes.
