Well, school has started and our amazing summer is officially over. It was SO HARD to go back to work and be away from my two favorite boys! I miss them so much during the day, but I feel so grateful that Mark is at home with Beckam. I have been continually reminded the past few weeks of President Hinckley's constant advice,
“It isn’t as bad as you sometimes think it is. If you do your best, it will all work out."
We have definitely seen the hand of the Lord in our lives in so many ways. Mark is now taking care of Beckam during the day and then we trade off in the afternoon. My principal is so GREAT and hired Mark to work at my school in the after school program. So when school gets out we switch and I take Beckam and Mark goes to work. I have been truly amazed to see how everything really does work out as long as we do our part.
Here are some of the sweet memories our cute little family shared this summer...

Great outlook Mindee! You're totally right, things always work out in the craziest ways. That is awesome about Mark working at after school club and going back to school. How's your class and new team this year? I hope it's going well for you. I miss Wilson, so enjoy being there if you can!
I'm so glad things are working out! Did you LOVE Hello Dolly? I have season tickets to Hale and they always do such great shows!! Hope your school year is off to a good start... I have such cute students this year.
Mindee, I love your blog and watching what is new in your life! I'm so grateful things are working out! I remember when our daughter was 18 months and I had just quit my job and my husband announced he wanted to go back to school: WHAT? Less money and more exspenses... ok, how do we do that? But somehow we're fine! I think the only way we survived was doing the fun, cheap, memory-building activities and remembering to take time for each other! (YOUR THERE!)
Love you,
