1st, we attended the Stucki Family Reunion, which was in Meridian, Id this year. Not so much travelling for our little family! We had a wonderful time participating in lots of great activities, like this water slide, and visiting with our family members, as well as getting to know our new family members.
We played and played and played til we were all worn out. Kallie said, I'm just going to lay on my bed and read this book and 2 minutes later the book was on her face and she was snoring away! HAHA!
That Sunday, while all the family was here, we had Kelton's baby blessing. He looked so handsome in his little suit, made, with love, by Grandma Stucki! She has made the blessing outfits for all of her 37 grand kids over the last 26 years. What a talent she has!

Here is a picture outside our church building with just a few of the family members present. We added at least 50 to the numbers of our sacrament meeting that day!
Then, 10 days later, Abbie started 1st grade! She was sooooooooo excited to be going to school all day, until the 1st morning or 2 of getting up at 6:30 caught up with her. She still loves school and her new teacher though. We're also excited for the brand new school building she is in and for all the Spanish she is learning already! Here she is on the 1st day of school!

And here's Kallie and Kelton who get to spend their days with Mommy. Kallie misses Abbie and so we try to find things to do and friends to play with. We found out that she did not get back into her preschool this year so we're still trying to figure out what we want to do. Kallie was very sad at this news but hopefully we can find something just as fun for her to do!
Next on our list of fun was a trip to the Western Idaho State Fair! We go every year and this year Grandma and Aunt Weezie got to come with us too! We had a good time looking at all the animals and exhibits and eating the very unhealthy, but very yummy fair food. But we had the best time on the rides. Only Abbie and Kallie were riding, but it was so much fun to see how happy they were and how much fun they were having.
The only downside was when Kallie was turned down on 2 rides for being about 1/2 an inch too short. This is hard to take for any kid, but for a little girl with Turner Syndrome who has to take shots every day to help her grow it is just a bit more stinging!(mostly for the parents, though Kallie did cry once) Oh well, we'll just be that much stronger later on!

So, that is our August! Now, we're into September and planning great things. Abbie's birthday is coming up and soccer starts tonight so stay tuned for more fun! Here are some cute pics of Kelton the put a smile on your face!
