Conner Scouting

Conner is a great scout!  He works hard to pass off all his requirements and just got his Webelos Badge.   He is now working on his arrow of light!  With all he is involved in, I am impressed that my little ten year old keeps up with it all so well!  Way to be Conner!!



Conner 5th grade Football


Conners 5th grade year of football was fun to watch.  He played corner on defense.  They worked hard together and he made a lot of friends.  Conner really liked playing with Luke and Jackson.  They had two hour practices everyday. He LOVED playing in the games!  His last game was the best he had 5 fumble recoveries and almost a pick 6.  He is one of the best tacklers on the team! Go T-Wolves!!

Austin Makes it to England!

Austin loves the England MTC.  There are only about 80 missionaries and his mission presidents wife is President Hinkleys daughter.  They take such good care of these boys.  She has been sending us pictures every few days.  It had been so nice to know what he is up to, see that he is happy and safe.

Sidney Wins Sterling Scholar Award!

Such a proud Mommy today! Sidney has always struggled with school.  She has gotten through but had to really fight to keep good grades.  Math and Science has always given her a really hard time! When she came home to tell me she was applying for the Sterling Scholar I was super excited but I also wondered if she stood a chance against so many girls with straight A's and higher than most ACT scores! I shouldn't have worried! Sidney had confidence that she could pull it off.  She sure did! She danced so beautifully at the Sterling Scholar Showcase that I thought WOW! She just might get this! She had also told me her interview and improv dancing had gone really well.  All we could do was wait....Well she called me first thing Friday morning crying and soooo excited! She had won STERLING SCHOLAR!!!  She received a full scholarship to UVU and will now be attending school there!
