So hopefully in the next day or two I will update my blog. But for the time being this will have to do. I am tired of looking at the same pictures. Hope everyone is having a great day!

So much has been going on. It is so hard to keep up. We lost another neighbor two weeks ago. The two little ones were close with Monte. He was a very nice and polite man. He was so generous and loved to help every one. He will be greatly missed. So now that my family has had two deaths very close to us in a matter of a two week period this has been the perfect time to talk and reflect on the love of family and the after life and how important it is to live everyday to the fullest and never have regrets. My family seems to have grown closer in the last few weeks. I love my family could not have asked for a more amazing kids and husbands. We love that we have been able to talk more about the plan of Salvation and how our life here on this earth is for such a short time. As the holidays soon approach us let us not ever forget the love of family.
Okay onto updates. I started sub teaching and love it. Okay I have only done it once so far. But that one time was great. Dani is little Miss popular. She got asked to both Maple Mountain (that is the new high school that just opened ) and Springville's homecoming. She was so excited and loved both nights. Here she is Ethan Wolz. Her Springville date. And here is her date for the Maple Mountain Homecoming Matt Comer.
Austin was very sick for week. Missed school and football. But he is back and at his first game back he scored a touchdown. Only a few more games. I am going to miss those games. But just a few months and track starts.
Baylie got the same sickness. So she missed some school too. She is busy babysitting and being a great cheerleader. She wants to be at every game and every performance of Dani's. She loves to be involved in everything.
Coop just finished the soccer season and is not so patiently waiting for wrestling to start.
Bryan is getting slower in the work area. So if any one knows of any jobs. Just holler:)
Just a few notes about our everyday activities. Check out the new pictures on the side as well. They are smaller but still cute. Since they are my kids. haha!

She will be missed dearly.

This past week we lost a dear friend. Tauna Blackburn died of complications due to diabetes. She was such an amazing friend. We first started hanging out after we moved into the ward. We also had so much fun at the cabin and going out to dinner. Anytime there was trip planned either she or Chad called to invite us. We were privileged enough to be one of the first ones to know that two amazing spirits were about to enter into her and Chad's life. Her parents are wonderful an treated my kids like grandchildren until the year that their family was blessed with a bunch of grandchildren of their own. Tauna and I got to serve in many callings together. We were team teachers in Sunbeams and then again we were teaming together in Activity days. I will miss her so much. She was so talented and every time we talked there seemed to be a new talent that I found out she had. She leave behind the most adorable little boy and girl and a wonderful husband. All of this has been hard on my kids and it has been a real teaching tool on the plan of salvation and on eternal life. Time is to precious and short. Live life everyday and to the fullest.

So for my last few weeks I have a few pictures. We hosted for the folkfest and had 3 great girls stay with us from Hungry. They were so much fun. We had a very busy week. They had never seen a real "American" baseball game. So the first night we went to an OWLZ game. They had a lot of fun.Next we started school. Along with that I went to Education Week at BYU. It always so fun. I went with my mom and we had a good time visiting and listening to amazing people. It was nice to be busy that first week. I haven't had time to myself since before Austin was born. The kids were so excited for school. Okay the two younger ones were, to two older ones, not so much.So Dani is in 11th grade, Austin is in 8th grade, Baylie is in 5th and Cooper is in 1st. All Dani told me was the different cute boys in each of her class. Sad to say Austin told me he hated having second lunch because he is soo hungry and what cute girls were in his class. Baylie talked about working lunch and that she gets a planner to use and Coop said they did alot of walking. So cute. Dani had her first drill performance at the first home football game. She did great. I was working in the scone booth. She also performed at the Utah County State fair. And they looked great. My parents came to both performances and are so supportive. I love them. Austin is playing football but he is on crutches right now. A major groin pull. Hopefully it will heal before his first game on Saturday. Coop started soccer and we are just simply very busy once again. But I wouldn't change it for anything. More pictures to come soon. Phew....
