My Man-Tastic Little Guy!

Ok-I know that I am crazy about these kids of mine. But my little guy Nate is truly one of my heroes. He just earned his wolf in his cub scouts. He has enough for his bear award but isn't old enough yet. But that said he has been a go-getter with this scout stuff. He always wants to work on his book and I am VERY proud of his dedication. My kiddo's started soccer this week. All in all not bad, I did however get in a lttle tussel with Nate's coach the 1st game. He was screaming at these little guys. This is rec ball not a competitive league. We were told at the orientaion that this is to get kids exposed to the sport and encourage good sportsmanship. Well with the coach screamming at them the whole time-anytime the ball got away from them or if they missed kicking a goal-I had had enough so I told him to knock it off and help the kids not scream at them. He was VERY avended by this. So I may need to change Nate's team. I do feel bad because I didn't mean to cause such problems. but I did, so hopefully I can make it right becacuse Nate loves this sport and he is good at it. Live and Learn!

What a Relief!

Well I made it!!!!It was a very LONG two days BUT it was a huge success! We had a much better turnout than expected and everyone that came had a great time! Jo, our school principle, thinks that we need to do this every year, as a way to strength our community. Lot's people came out from my ward and stake and I appreciate their support. A lot of people didn't give this a fair shot, but the ones that did are the ones who care about making our area into a community. Here are a few photo's. Again Thanks to everyone who supported this event! The winners in this, are the kids!

The Insanity!

Well we are down to the wire!! Tomorrow all my blood, sweat and tears will be done. Our PTA has been working since last April to put together our fundraiser. A 5k and carnival. Unfortunately we didn't make as much money as I had hoped, but it is not from lack of work on our part. We had many things working against us. BUT if you focus on what we did do it is pretty incredible. I think everyone who comes out will have a fabulous time. The kids are so excited and they have had fun promoting it and talking about it so I couldn't be happier! I will let ya all know what comes of tomorrow and have some photo's! I will keep you posted!@!!

Big Buddah!

The long awaited day came. It was really awesome. We had a ton of kids show up, which was quite amazing considering we had to have them there at 6:00am!! Yes that is just an assault on everyone. But none the less they were little troopers and I hope they had a good time. We tried to give Big Buddah one of our PTA shirts, we had a 3XL for him. No way, he is a 5XL. So we gave hime the shirt but not on the air. Anyways here are some fun photo's!

TV Fun!

On Friday we got to go to GOOD THINGS UTAH! Nate, Jake and Brenda had the opportunity to appear on the show to promote our school's Hero program and our school's 5k fundraiser. Everyone did a fantastic job. I appreciate them all being so willing to do that. There is no way I could have gone on with my speech problems. So Thanks you guys!

My dad's girls!

All this is my dad's posterity! who would have thought!

Snowbird fun!

Well to cap off the weekend of fun-my family got together at October Fest. My sweet Mom-in-law Carol had her b-day on Sept. 7th. She is very generous and wanted to reunite my dad and my sister, so we all met and went up the canyon to the festival. Her son Aaron and his new bride Lindsey came along making us one big happy famalee! I so love these guys. Here are some of the photo's. We took these at the top of the mountain after you ride the tram up. Which was a new experience. It was a bit scary at times but no harm no foul and we made it. Aaron is a big time skier and so he had lots of stories to keep us all entertained. i love Carol and Aaron and Lindsey so much and i am very great-ful they are my family now. I am so happy for my dad and his finance. She completes' my dad. I love them both. Thanks again for the fun-tastic time we had!

Happy Anniversary Babe!

Well we did it! Another year!! Who-hoo! Trav and I weren't sure how to celebrate this one. SO we decided to do somethinng at home with our kids. Trav and the kids were going to make me dinner and watch our wedding video. I still haven't seen it since the accident. Because we haven't had a VCR, but with my dad moving he had one and gave it to us. So the plann was made. BUT at the last minute Trav's work surprised us with a room at Park City-Club Lepris. Which was fabulous! But the kids were still excited to be included. So we thought we would bring them along. So we took some fun pics with the kids. They are Cra-zy. Then my dad and his wonderful fiance carol, offered to have the kids stay the nite with them. The kids had a blast. And me and Trav got a night alone. So everyone wins! I love it when that happens. Trav is so kind to me and I really appreciate all that he does for me and our kids. He is an incredible husband and father, who I really look up to. He never complains about me or our situation. I am a very lucky girl! I love you Travis and I am very Glad to be your girl. She-rav as the guys at work call me fits me just fine to go along with my T-Rav!

5K Fun

Ok well it's almost time for the 5K fundraiser we have been planning for months. It's crunch time where there is so much to do it hurts. Likely I have amazing people helping do most of it. Brenda has put so much work into this thing. There is so much that I don't understand, and am slow to do, but Bren always pitch hits for me. There is no way I could be involved with PTA at this level with out her. I seriously had no idea all the stuff that went along with PTA president. I looked at it very one sided and thought sure I can try that. Time has a way of teaching the lessons and I have learned. Anyways anyone out there who can come and participate with us, you can leave me a comment and I can e-mail you the link to register on-line. Again Thanks Bren for setting that up! I am very fortunate for compassionate people who have come into my life. I know that this is a blessing of my Heavenly Father. There have been many people who came my way at just the right time and I know that was no acciednt. I love ya all! Thanks for reading and commenting on this hobby of mine. Sorry about all the errors-sometimes I forget to spell check these posts, bear with me!

Budah-licious!

I am so excited!!!!!I have been e-mailing Big Budah, from Fox 13, for a while and on Friday we got the word that he is coming to our school!!!!Yeah! I love Budah, he is so funny and I think that the kids at our school will really enjoy getting to be on TV. The hard part of this is that we need the kids to show up at school around 6am. So I have logicistics to work out. But none-the-less, it really will give our 5k a good boast of attention. So on wednesday Sept. 17th between 6 and 9 watch Fox 13 to see our "Cool School"!
