With two kids in middle school and
two in high school we are up to
our eyeballs in disclosure documents!!
We feel like we are signing our life away!

Connor's second football game was not
quite as exciting as the first!
He did have another sweet touchdown-
a 75 yard touchdown reception!

Happy 41st Birthday Darren!
In Alex's words--
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
You're almost 100
and you look like it too!!

This is the package I sent to
Elder Forsyth today!
Pumpkin cookies--fresh from the oven-
more mints-they can't chew gum--
much requested pictures of Shalee and Lou Bug--
I put some family ones in there too!--
And a BYU poster signed by all his favorite players!!
Oh, and don't forget the new camera!

It's the first day of school for
Cass and Connor!
Seeing the two of them drive off to school together
made me feel just a twinge of jealousy!
I always wanted to go to school with one of my siblings-
I am glad these two have the opportunity and
even more glad they are such good friends!

We got a package from Elder Forsyth today!
It wasn't any kind of gift--more of a help me!!
He broke his camera and of course needs a new
one A.S.A.P!
It was some kind of story about light saber
pictures? Seriously?
8-22-2011
The first day of middle school for the twins!!
I promised Zach that someday in the not to
distant future he will be taller than is sister!!
8-21-2011
After our first annual back to school feast
we introduced our theme for this school year--
RISE UP!!
Yeah, yeah it is the BYU football theme as well--
but I just could not resist implementing this theme
into all the area's of our lives.
We all set goals and then watched our balloons
RISE UP
for everyone to see!
It's gonna be a great year!

Connor's first football game of 2011!
Westlake vs Springville
Westlake 27-Springville 8!
Connor Forsyth with an 85 yard touchdown reception!
The Forsyth Family in tears from excitement!
Two way proud grandparents!
8-19-2011
Westlake's first football game of 2011!
I caught Cassidy in mid back tuck!!
The cheerleaders ended up being much more
fun to watch than the actual football game!
8-18-2011
This tasted even better than it looked!
My favorite thing about it is the cake plate!
You just can't beat a cute cake plate!
8-17-2011
School Shopping!
We paid the school fees-
bought the school clothes--
now it's time for school supplies!
8-16-2011
Rise up all loyal cougar fans!
Yeah, that #1 Jordan Pendelton!
BYU football is one thing that can take my
mind off my #1 son these days!
8-15-2011
My dear friend, Lisa, had
a little mishap on the dirt road we have
to take because of the detour!
Who knew there was a canal there?
8-14-2011
Dustin had a little
"slip" up helping with the
dinner dishes.
I guess dishwasher doors have a weight limit!

Our first letter!
He loves the MTC--
He loves his companion-
He loves being a missionary!
Now that I know that maybe I can
get some sleep tonight!

Talk about a conflict of emotions!
These were just a few of the the thoughts running
through my head as we dropped Alex off at the MTC.
Did I teach him enough?
I can't let go of him-
I am so proud I just might burst-
Remember what if feels like to have him hug you-
What if he hates his first companion?
Can I just go with him for the first day?
My family is never going to be the same-
Heavenly Father, give me the strength to let go-
Did I teach him how to sew on a button?
Does he know how much I love him?
Does he know how much I love the Lord?
In the end I did let go--physically!
I am still working on emotionally!
God be with you 'till we meet again, Elder Forsyth.
8-9-2011
He is officially Elder Forsyth!
Bishop Gibby and President Wilkinson-
two great examples in Alex's life!
