Are you ready for some football !!!!!!!!!

Noah and Mike started football practice several weeks ago. Mike is the head coach of Desert Hills Gold Team. He has been grooming Noah to be a star quarterback. And he is! Their record is 3-0 so far. Last week Noah ran for a touchdown and of course the whole season he has been passing for all the touchdowns. It is so much fun to watch. I don't know who gets more excited....Mike or Noah:)

FOUR!

Monday night for FHE Mike took us to do something that he likes to do, golf. Well, we actually went to hit a bucket of balls. I have some pretty athletic children, but it was hilarious to watch each one of them try to hit the ball and miss the first time. Now, I laugh with them, not so much at them, because I am terrible at golf and do just that.....miss the ball more than hit it. The kids quickly improved with a little instruction from Mike. We had a great time!

All 5 Together

With Keaton living up North it is very rare to get all the kids together for a picture. Last year it didn't happen so I didn't send out Christmas cards. Let me just say it is almost as bad as pulling teeth to get them to consent to getting together and letting me take photos. A few of them are really good about going and a few of them make me want to pull my hair out. Let's just say I was lucky they all said yes even though I know those few (2 in particular) were saying "NO" under their breath. I had to promise to go somewhere close and not take "forever" to get the best shot. Here is one good shot out of about 90. What a great looking bunch!

Homecoming

Isn't this cute?! I may never get a shot like this again. Love it!



Kenzie went to Homecoming last night. Being on the Executive Council she was involved in planning Homecoming week including decorating for the dance. It was a busy week. Just a little background on this, Kenzie wasn't asked to Homecoming. Monday she decided to take matters into her own hands and she asked McKay. He lives next door and had not asked anyone to the dance. She went up to him and told him she had free tickets and free pictures and asked him to take her. After all, it was her senior Homecoming and she really wanted to go. He said he would love to take her. What a brave girl! I am so proud! They went to the lake for the day date, which included the boat breaking down in the middle of the lake. They were stranded about 45 minutes, but it all turned out ok. All in all, she had an awesome date!
