Special Olympics

This year for youth conference our ward volunteered for the special olympics that were held here in Cedar City. It was so much fun and such a humbling experience. To see this athletes and their excitement in being able to participate in this event was just amazing. The thing that I admired most about these people is there is no competitive spirit in them what-so-ever! They are just there to have fun and be a part of such a great event. During races they would stop and help someone running next to them and give eachother high fives after the race. It was just such a special experience not only for us as leaders but for the youth in our ward. So I am very grateful for the opportunity I had to volunteer and meet some of these special spirits that are living in our world today. It was AMAZING!!

Almost Summer!

Wow! I can not believe the girls are done with school this week. I am so excited for summer to be here. We have been very busy lately with soccer and end of school programs. Soccer is now done and the girls both had a great year. Bailey has been asked to play on a summer games team so she is really excited about that. It should be a fun experience for her. She was also asked to play on a traveling soccer team this fall. And so it begins, right? The girls are both starting softball this week as well. We have had several fun weekends in Mesquite sittin' by the pool and swimming. We are going to Logan this weekend for Meagan's wedding and to visit with fam! I am so excited!! Then my family is coming down the following week to visit and have some fun. My aunt Nancy is even able to come along with my mom and Mind. We are going to have a blast. Braxton is now 14 months old and still just as fun as ever. He has such a funny personality already and is keeping us busy. We hope all of you are doing well and we miss you all very much!

Major Catch Up!

Alright I have really been slackin' this month and of course it was a very busy month so I have lots to share. We had a great Easter times three. We did our stuff here at home and then headed to Mesquite for another egg hunt and dinner. Then the week after that headed to Logan and my mom did her thing with the kids. So Yes they were very spoiled. The girls enjoyed their spring break even though we got 7 inches of snow their first day off. So Ryan and I took them to St. George to the Sand Hallow aquatic center to swim. We also went to the red rock and took some hikes in Snow canyon. It was such a fun weekend!! The week we were in Logan we also had a shower for Meagan and it was so much fun! I am so excited for her and can't believe it is almost here! So we will be back in Logan over Memorial Day weekend for her wedding and to visit with fam. The girls have started soccer so we are very busy! They are both doing great and are so much fun to watch. Ryan is coaching Brin's team this year so she is excited about that. I can't believe the girls only have four weeks of school and then it is summer!!! I love it! Well I think that is the big things we have been enjoying lately. I hope you are all doing well and we miss you all a lot!

Birthday Boy!!!

Holy Cow!! Braxton turned one on the 12th and I just can not believe it has already been a year since this little guy joined our family. He is so much fun and we love watching him grow and develop. He is now on regular milk...thank the heavens up above! As you know he is walking, he waves bye, plays peek-a-boo, blows kisses, and will nod his head when you ask him questions. He has learned so much so fast. I forget how fast they pick up on things. He has been a very spoiled boy! We celebrated with my family a week early while we were up in Logan. He got tonz of fun toys that he loves to play with! Then Misty and Jason came and spent the weekend of his birthday with us. It was so much fun. He absolutely loved his cake. And he got double the cakes since we celebrated twice. The video is so funny so I will definitely post it soon. He also went to the doc today and got his shots. Poor kid!! He is 25 lbs. 10 oz. (85%), 32 in. long (96%), and his head is 19 in. (92%). So Yes he is still growing and very big for his age. But that's how we love him!
