DOUBLE BAD BLOGGER






Ok, so in my last entry I said I was going to be better. Obviously not real great since it was in MARCH that I entered it. Life kind of caught up with our family about that time so it's been complete chaos in our hourse for a month. So here's a quick update.

Shay: I was promoted and transferred to the Sandy office. It's a great opportunity and right now I'm spending a lot of time at the office trying to get things off the ground and working but the nice thing is that I'm 10 minutes from home so even though I'm working more, I'm home quicker, so it balances out.

Tommy: Right now is being a stay at home Dad and playing as much golf as possible. He'll be playing this weekend in the Fox Hollow Tournament. Hooray! And it looks like he'll plan on going back to school in the Fall. I think he's leaning toward Sports Psychology but I think before he decides he'll be meeting with an advisor at the U and looking at things a bit more. Whatever he decides to do I'm excited for him.

Braxton: Doing really well. He's working on his movies with his cousins and posting them on youtube and he just loves it. He was just assigned the student Director position for the play at school and he's really excited to be doing it.

Kaden: He just finished up wrestling and I think he was glad to be done because now he can focus more on baseball, which I think he seems to love a bit more. He's playing outfield and I'll tell ya, he's the best outfielder on their team. They had a game last night and Kaden caught a great ball in center field that got them an out. And he's been getting one or two of them each game. He's quite the power hitter as well.

Cole: Like Kaden, he's just finished up wrestling and I think he's glad to be done although he told his Dad and I that he really wanted to got to state wrestling but I think we may forgo it this year. The boys competed at a tournament in Reno a few weeks ago that was a regional competition. Cole took 4th in his bracket which had 36 kids in it. Cole is playing 1st base and short stop in baseball. And he's made some great plays as well. he did a great stop last night as short and threw it to 2nd for an out. He really wants to pitch but he needs to get some seniority until that happens.

Emma: Emma is doing super great. She seems to have grown up a lot since her birthday when she turned the Big 6. She always is drawing everyone nice pictures and cards to make us feel better or just to say I love you.

Bella: What can I say? She's definately a handful. She makes a laugh and her brothers and sister just adore her. She misses them a lot when they're not around and it's just Dad and Mom. We're apparently not quite as fun. But she's starting to say more and more and she's developing quite a personality. She's very independant and she expects things right now, and since her brothers and sister all cater to her she pretty much gets everything now.

That's about it. I've posted some easter pictures as well. The kids had waaaay too much fun dying easter eggs. Even my Tommy got into it. Bella ended up a green Shrek baby but she thought the whole thing was pretty cool.
