Today was the first day of school for the girls. Cassidy was excited to go and catch up with all of her friends. We had big drama picking out a "first day of school outfit", it is a very big decision. Page on the other hand, is in mourning. I am surprised that she didn't wear black to school today. (Page also had first day of school outfit drama. She just won't admit it!) She is not at all happy that school started. She is still trying to talk us into home schooling her. (Never going to happen.) All she wants to do is ride her horses all day. Page did think she was very cool. Today was the first day she got to drive to school. She took the truck, and thought she was big stuff. She drove Cassidy to school. When I asked Cass if Page was a crazy driver, Cass laughed and said that Page has road rage. Should I be worried???

What a weekend we had. It started off with Cassidy getting her braces off. She was so excited. We had to go and get a salad first thing, so she could eat it and not worry about getting anything caught in her braces. Next on the list is corn on the cob.
Right after Cass got her braces off, we headed off to Delta, Utah for Page's next high school rodeo. She had a great weekend. Cascade (her horse) did great! Page did okay. Page had two great barrel runs, she got seventh the first day and fifth the second day. We were so excited, Cascade was awesome. He had good pole runs also. Page also did great in goats. She got third the first day, and ninth the second day. She also caught her calf the first day. It was a good weekend. Hopefully she can keep it up.
The girls only have one more week of summer. I can't believe how fast time goes. Cassidy has tried on every outfit she has, for her yearbook photo tomorrow. Everything has to be just right. Cassidy can't wait for school to start. Mostly for the socializing. Page on the other hand has a whatever attitude. She wants us to home school her, so that she can ride her horses all day. I don't think so!

I am sitting here in my hotel in Toledo Ohio checking out the blog that Shannon and Cassidy created. I like it. I am watching the Olympics on TV (Beach Volleyball).

Shannon here: I am trying to figure out all this blog stuff. Cassidy started a blog for our family. Cassidy went to BYU to volleyball camp last week. She had a ton of fun and came home with a major ear infection....bummer. She is better now. Page had her first High School Rodeo for the year. She did great! She tied her goat in 7.5 seconds and got third place. She caught her calf in 3.5 seconds and got sixth place. We were so excited, it was a great way to start the year. The girls start school in two weeks. Page will be in 11th grade and Cassidy in 8th grade. The summer has flown by.
