We got a call on Saturday night from Zachary’s football coach… Zachary’s team name is the Broncos and he practices twice a week on Tuesday and Thursday from 6-8pm. He is very excited and can’t wait to get out there and play. We have to laugh, because he doesn’t hit very hard at all, and […]
Today Brittany had her freshman orientation up at Metea High School and both her and Sarah played in the pep band for it. They had a great time! Brittany became even more familiar with the school and found her classrooms. Then came the best part of it for her… THE DANCE! Sarah and her friend
Happy Birthday, Angela! Today we celebrated Angela’s ______ birthday! 🙂 She still looks so young and people can’t believe that we have 5 kids! 🙂
Zach’s second day of football clinic was today and he liked it even more than yesterday. It was MUCH cooler and they actually got to tackle each other. It’s funny to see how hard (or not how hard) they hit each other. We have to laugh at how tentative the boys are… All the boys
Today was the first day of the “Hitters” clinic for football. Zachary was so excited to go all day and couldn’t wait until he could go. He got dressed up in his football pads and such 2 hours before it was time to go, and we had to get him undressed so he wouldn’t spill
Today, we had a church service project at Feed My Starving Children. We signed up for two 2-hour sessions and our ward needed to provide 180 people to work packing meals for starving children around the globe. (90 people in each session). Angela signed me, Sarah, and Kirstyn up for both sessions (9:00am-11:00am and 11:30am-1:30pm).
Today Ana went back to Spain. Kirstyn was especially sad. She really liked Ana and had a great time with her while Sarah and Brittany were at camp. It’s weird that it’s been an entire year since Carmen went back to Spain last summer. Time has really flown! We are glad that the Gaul family
Today Sarah and Brittany came home after having a great time at camp. They were exhausted, but couldn’t stop talking about the great experiences they had there. It looks like that they will be going to the same camp next year and are excited about it. Angela wants to go to camp with them next
This past Monday, Sarah and Brittany got up EARLY and took off to girls camp, and so far, are having a BLAST! Yesterday, I drove down to Camp Cary down in Lafayette, IN to join them for Bishop’s night and testimony meeting. Bishop and I got down there at about the same time and ate dinner
Tonight we welcomed a Spanish student in our home for the week. Ken and Angie Gaul and their family who hosted again this year went on vacation to Disney World and asked us if we would take their student, Ana Espallargas for the week. We gladly accepted. We wish we could have done the month-long
Today we decided to take a trip to Nauvoo to visit the temple and to attend the Nauvoo pageant. The weather was threatening when we got up but decided to take a leap of faith and go anyway. We left home at 5:30am and drove down. It rained like crazy for most of the trip
Today was a BIG day for Zachary… He finished registering and picked up his shoulder pads for football! He and I went over to St. Raphael school early to get in line to wait for registration. We underestimated the wait and should have gotten there 30 minutes earlier. When we arrived, the line was almost
