We are sure putting the miles on the suburban. Taylor made the golf team and has to be to the golf course everyday after school and because he doesn't have a license yet I get to take him. His friends mom picks them up in Elk Ridge but I have to go to Payson to get him. Garrett is playing 8th grade tackle football in Payson he has practice everyday from 5:00 to 7:30 at Taylor School. Thank goodness we put together a car pool. So I only have to take them over on Monday nights and pick up that night. Garrett's Team won there first game. Gary is playing men's fall softball. He really enjoys that on Tues. nights. I enjoy watching and supporting them in what they are doing. Sometimes it is hard to be to everything but I try. I am glad right know we only have one in football. that makes it a lot easier. Basketball is always tricky because we always have 3 or 4 kids playing.

When I came home from camp I came home to a new girl. She is all about trying to do her own hair. And has to have it done everyday. She fixes it about 10 times a day. She used to care less about having it done. But not anymore. she sure does add a lot to the family. He is enjoying the third grade.

Tanner is enjoying 5th grade. He wishes basketball was year round. Bryce is loving first grade. Taylor loves going to the High School.

Garrett is in the 8th grade. On Monday August 31, 2009 he went to school at 5:00 a.m. to do a qualifier for a Mount Nebo hike He had to run 3 miles in 39 min. with a twenty pound pack on his back. Then they had to run bleachers afterwards. He did the 3 miles in 30 min. On Friday Sept. 4, 2009 They went on the hike he had a great time. He had to get up at 4:30 a.m. to get to the school to go on the hike. He was tired when he got home.
