An Update!

First, Most of our weekends and many weeknights have been spent with Tanner and his soccer team. At the beginning of the summer Tanner tried out for three soccer teams and made all three of them. He chose to play for Allan Haycock. The team is Thunderfoot and they play in Nibley. Yes, I am a sucker and drive him from Smithfield to Nibley twice a week for practice and occasionally another time for a scrimmage... Then we have games. This team made State Premier. Premier is the Top 11 teams in the State. We play anywhere from Springville to Logan twice a week. I have not posted many pictures because I am also the mom who puts together the Web page for the boys. It is private for safety of our kids. But if any of you would like to view it... just let me know and I will invite you. During the summer the boys played three tournaments four days in a row each. The first one they took 2nd place and the second two they took first. When we started our regular season it was a shock to the boys. We were loosing every game. These teams are great! But, This last week we played Rampage on our home field and won our first regular season game! Tanner loves to play and we love to watch.... it has been a huge time commitment but what do you do when the kid loves it that much and has the talent. :)














Then, When we are not doing soccer. We do flag football with Landon.. We really enjoy watching Landon play. Brent and our neighbor are coaching. We practice with him once a night and games once a night. I enjoy the not so competitive pace. We play here in Smithfield and it is just for fun. The boys seem to really have fun. Landon is actually a pretty good little football player. He likes to hike the ball, and at our last game he played QB, caught the ball and made a catch able throw to another on of our boys. It was a great play.









I have been trying to get in better shape. So my neighbors and I have started to go to the gym daily. When, you ask, do I find time to do anything for myself.... Well, at 5 AM? Yes, I have been getting up and going before I go to work. It really has not been as hard at I thought it would be before we started. I feel better, and I think strangely it helps me to cope with everything else. I just wish I were seeing more results. Sorry.... No pics for this one!! I'll give you to good, and save the ugly!

And of course, we also have started school, try to do home work, work two full time jobs, clean the house, drag Meg around with us, and then try to find some time in between to just see and talk with each other! ( we defiantly don't get enough of that) But, we love it and enjoy watching our boys grow and accomplish things. So if I have for some reason neglected talking to any of you or have not called..... it is not because I don't love you all!!!!


Poor Brent really takes the brunt of it all. He has been trying so hard to keep up with his job and get home it time to do the rest! I love you honey! Thanks for trying so hard and being such a wonderful supportive daddy to your kids, and a great hubby to me!
