Back to School.....August 23, 2010

Hip Hip Horray, school starts today! I can't believe yet another summer has passed and the kids are back to school. I usually am ready for school to start but this year I have mixed emotions. I really wish we had one more month before school started. The summer has flown by and it was a little crazy with everything that was going on in our family.

It's always an adjustment for me to have them all back home during the day for the summer and an adjustment for having them gone again when school is back in. But in a few weeks things will be back on track.

I am really excited for the kids and the teachers they have this year. They both have WONDERFUL teachers and they both will be learning an instrument in their respective class. Hadlie is going to learn the Ukuele and Daxton will be learning Guitar. Tage starts pre-school and I love his teacher also. It will be an exciting year to watch them grow and learn.

Here's to the upcoming school year! Good Luck Hadlie, Daxton, and Tage.

Dad saying good-bye and good luck!

Getting loaded into the car!

Here we are....

Hadlie in front of hers!

I'll miss you both! Work hard, play hard, and enjoy learning. Education is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself!

We Are The Robertson's....

Sam and I are products of the Spanish Fork Singles Ward. When we met, Sam was the ward mission leader and I was a stake missionary. We dated for 3 months then I served a mission. After I returned home we married in November 1999. We have four beautiful children: Hadlie, Daxton, Tage, and Paizlie. Our family is growing bigger and better everyday. Since we don't live close to our immediate families we hope this blog will capture our memories we are making and allow our families and friends to watch us grow and progress everyday.

Daxton

Daxton is 7 years old. He is our perfectionist. He works on something until it looks just so. He runs on his own time schedule. He is very anaylitical. We think he'll follow in his Grandpa Owen's and Uncle Dave's footsteps one day and become an Engineer. Daxton loves to play with his friends, play baseball, and play piano. He loves playing the Wii. He's very good at it. Daxton knows how to do things right: he starts out slow until he figures all the in's and out's then he cruises through the task. Daxton loves his mom. He and Jen have a strong bond. He loves school. He's a good listener and a great big brother to Tage.

Paizlie

Paizlie is 2 years old. She is our peacemaker. She has brought alot of happiness and joy into our lives. She is always happy. She loves to play with her stuff dogs, her babies, and her brothers and sister. She mimic's her siblings all the time. She wants to be a big kid too.Paizllie is a 100% grandpa girl. She LOVES, and I mean, LOVES her two grandpa's. She makes me open up our blog almost everyday so she can see pictures of her two grandpa's. She has a very sweet spirit and nature about her. We are so glad she came to our family.

My Dad's A Hero

I, Jen, illustrated this book for two friends of mine, Jewel Armstrong and Rebecca Christensen, whom wrote the book. Together, we self published it in 2007. We have been sending it to military families and military schools around the nation to help children with deployed parents. Our book perviously won the 2007 Golden Quill Award from the American Authors Association and the 2007 Don Hanson Award for Creativity from the Military Writers Society of America. We now have learned that Scholastic Books is now going to carry it for the next 7 years in their book order magazines. We are very excited about it. It's so awesome! So watch for it when your kids bring home their book orders from school. You can also get it on Amazon.com.
