Football!!!

So right now our family is completely submerged in football and we love every minute of it. This year Joshua is on the Pee Wee's A team and he has done awesome. So far he's had 7 touch downs and 2 interceptions and some great tackles. Everytime I watch his games I have so much pride!! I love wearing his number so everyone knows that that is my kid! Lloyd is coaching again this year and our team rocks! They have 6 wins 1 loss with 3 more games to go and then the playoffs. I love our team and all the parents on it. We have been lucky to have several of the same kids on our team as last year and so we all feel like family. Here are some pics that one of the Mom's has taken of the season so far.

























My favorite pic so far! One of his interceptions.


Yay! Go Cyprus Pee Wee's!!

1st day of school

Well here we go another school year has begun. There's nothing I can do about it. I have to just watch time fly by quicker than anything and watch my kids grow up faster than I can blink. The summer went by way tooo fast at our house. The kids were super excited to start school so I am excited for them and the positives are that they are not bored anymore and not fighting as much.

Lolohea (this is the name she goes by at school)she is in 6th grade and her teacher is Mrs Graham and so far she loves her.

My handsome boy Joshua starting 5th grade with Ms Perry.

Sassy Savani is now in school full time as a 1st grader and has Mrs Bayles.

Milika thinks she is off to school too. She was intent on having a back pack and a lunch.

There they go. The last year the 3 will be at school together.

Savani reuniting with her two best friends.

Here's hoping for a great school year!!

Girls Camp

Girls camp this year was so much fun and miserable all at the same time. We had ward camp this year and we went up to Alta in Big Cottonwood Canyon and camped clear up as far as you can in that canyon. The first day when we arrived it rained and rained and rained. We barely were able to set up our tents and then it would rain some more. It only got to about 70 degrees during the day and it would periodically rain all through out the days that we were there. It is so beautiful up there with all the trees and we saw a moose and baby moose that were walking right by our tent. The girls loved that. We did some hikes and crafts and played silly games. We froze at night because it really got cold up there but during the day when it wasn't raining it was really nice and cool. We couldn't get cell phone service and the girls all laughed at me because every time we went on a hike, I would bring my phone and hold it up in the air trying to get service. As much as I hate to admit it, it was nice to get away from the city and really appreciate the things in life that we have and believe me this camping trip did that. We really roughed it.

The girls hurrying to get their tents set up before another rainstorm started.



One of the nights we retired an old flag. It was a neat program that our YW President did for that.



Getting beautiful at camp.

Me and Court. Love her!

We are on our hike up to Cecret Lake in the canyon. It was steep but such a beautiful hike and a beautiful day that day.








Hanging out at camp.






I love all these YW so much. We have such a great group of girls. After getting home and being able to shower and get warm, I realized what a great experience it was and how greatful I am to be part of these girls lives.
