California for Braves game

 

 

We made a quick trip to California to go to a Braves game and for the girls to do a little shopping. We went to the beach and searched for sand crabs, got a parking ticket, found a nice hotel, got great seats for the game, saw a movie and did a little shopping. Good Times!

Fair time again!!

Drake had another great year! He placed 1st in both showmanship and market. He puts a lot of time with his pigs and really get them ready for the fair. He is a natural shower and gets many compliments for how well he does.

This was Sierra's first year. She is a natural too. Her brother liked to help her and sometimes too much, but she learned alot from him. her pig that she had chosen didn't quite make weight luckily she was able to take the alternate. She also did very well and placed in both market and showmanship.

Fun with G & G "D" and the Johnsons

 

G & G "D" came down for the fair and we had a great time. We went up to St. George to enjoy a little swimming with the Johnsons at their condo. Looks like Grandpa was doing his best to make the kiddos scream:-).

Basketball

Sierra, Makenzie and Tyson played basketball this year!! Sierra had an all girls team and had a few of her good friends on the team so she really liked it. This was Makenzie's first year because she hadn't wanted to play before and her age group ended up being coed which can be tricky but she had a great time and enjoyed running around and shooting the ball. Tyson of course loved it too. Trying to get him to slow down is almost impossible. Now on the the next thing.

Playing games, eating treats, and being a little crazy. I was sad Drake didn't have a party but we sent him a little treat and valenitne in his lunch. Happy Valentines Day!!

Basketball 2011

Sierra, Tyson, and Makenzie all played basketball this year. They had a great time. We coached Tyson's team and that was a little challenging for me. They all did very well and had a great time. This was Makenzie's first year playing and they ended up doing coed and that was a little tough for her but she had a great coach and he made sure she had plenty of shots. Great job sis!! Sierra had a fun team with a few of her friends on it. Sierra is not left handed but only dribbles with her left hand. Hopefully soon she will get her right hand down. Tyson loved it of course. He liked to go 100 miles per hour. Trying to slow him and his team down was a chore. Great job everybody!!

Roadshow

 

The YW/YM from 3 wards participated in some roadshows. It was a lot of fun to watch and they all did a great job. Of course our ward was definately the best. Drake was a knight and did a great job. I forgot my camera and so I got a few from a friend. Good laughs.

Favorite Book Character

 

Sierra and Makenzie had a fun dressing up as their favorite book characters for school.

Arizona College Trip

 

We took Sawyer down to ASU to check it out and have a tour of the campus. Steve has some fun pictures on his phone I need to post to this while we were on campus. After the tour we went to a few spring training MLB games. We had a great time and really enjoyed having great seats and had some great laughs at one of the umpires and fans discussions. Sawyer did really like the school but the cost was a little too much to handle.
