Sierra Fashion Show

Sierra's activity day group does a fall fashion show at the beginning of school. They get to show off their new clothes and learn about poise. It sure is fun to watch.

BYU Game

We had a great time watching Uncle Shane in the opening game for BYU. It was awesome game!! We got to go with G & G, Carrie, Halle, Brady, Angie, Quincy and a lot of Shane's family and friends. Halle was also blessed that weekend and it was our first time seeing Quincy and we were so excited. We love football but it is even more exciting getting to watch someone we really know. Great job Shane!!

Back to School 2010

Aren't they all grown up? I can't believe it. Sawyer started his Senior year, Drake started middle school, Sierra is in 4th grade, Makenzie in 2nd, and my baby Tyson is in Kindergarten.

Sawyer is enjoying getting out of school early a few days a week being a big senior. He is having a great time with friends going to lunch every day. He is getting all those things done (ACT) and starting to think about where to go to college. Weird. I can't believe it.

Drake is loving middle school. He is getting straight "A's" so far and works very hard. He is a great student and enjoys the time between classes so he can talk to his friends. I can't believe he is in middle school and almost 12.

Sierra is really liking 4th Grade. Her teacher is Mr. Dorsey. She loves school especially the social part of it but always does her work and rarely has to be asked to get her homework done.


Makenzie has Mrs. Shumway. Drake and Sierra both had her and we love her. She is awesome. Makenzie enjoys school also and is doing great. She has got a 100% on all but one test and can even spell Saguaro. She is so fun and is having fun in 2nd grade.


Tyson is loving kindergarten. He has a lot of friends in his class and even his cousin Shaylee. His teacher is Mrs. Williams. He is doing very well and starting to get his reading down. He loves to show me books he can read. He especially likes it when mom comes in and when she picks him up.

Pirate Paradise Roller Skating

 

Mary wanted to take the kids roller skating in Mesquite before school started. So we headed over one day and had a great time. The kids loved it. It is fun to roller skate and a great work out. We just need to remember pillows for behinds next time.

Cheer Camp

 

The girls always have a great time at cheer camp. The learn a lot of fun songs and enjoys getting together with lot of friends right before school starts. They can be cheerleaders now just not in high school:)

Camping

Our camping trips this summer were very few. We were able to go to Beaver Mtn. with some friends. We stayed in a condo that they had and enjoyed fishing, rhino riding, smores, and nice cool weather. We had a great time. Garrett was even able to come with us which was so nice because Drake and Garretts schedules are getting busier and busier. We love the mountains.


HUNTING TRIP
We were also able to go hunting with the Staheli's. We had a great time with them and the kids all had a great time playing one last time before school time came. They enjoyed shooting bow and arrows, riding the 4-wheelers, finding crawdads, wading in a stream, and celebrating Erin's birthday! We had a wonderful time even though the big bucks were not found.

We had a couple reunions in a week. It was a lot of fun and we learned a lot about Steve's mom's side of the family, toured a home where Steve's grandma grew up and enjoyed stories told.

Our Sweet Sierra Is 9!

Okay I am so far behind. Sierra had another birthday in California!! You would think that she would love it but no, she doesn't. We went to Legoland that day. She was so excited that she got a dsi. Then she wanted to go to Denny's for dinner. She is such a sweetie. We love her notes and enjoy her tender loving personality. She is always helpful and loves taking care of others. Sierra we love you so much and we are so glad you are a part of our family. Happy 9th Birthday!!
