Top Scholar

Garrett was awarded Top Scholar for his Junior class.
He has really done well in the public school system.
He has almost straight A's and is planning on going
to medical school. Hooray finally a Dr.
in the family! He was also nominated to go to
Washington D.C. for a conference. And just got his letter and pins for participating in choir.
We are extremely proud him.
Some of you wouldn't recognize him. He is taller than I am!

Camping in our own backyard!

The scouts had a camp out in our backyard, and it was great when they left, but when they woke up it was in a foot of snow. Ron was too panicked about getting the car out to take a picture. This was done in our backyard down by the river. Amazing!

CHEWY

We got this bird from Karenna's Aunt. She didn't want him anymore because he is so loud! I'm understanding this now. We gave him to Paige, and this bird will only go to Paige. He wolf whistles, whistles the Imperial March from Star Wars, and Indiana Jones movie. He says pretty bird and screams like a little kid. He got that from the previous owners little boy. He tries to out do the T.V. and screams when the vacuum is on. Needless to say our home is not quiet anymore! Paige loves him though. He got his name from Chewbacha on Star Wars, but he chews on everything! He shares meals with us. Loves cheerios, and ice cream! Now Gavin wants one. Oh boy!

Soccer

This is Gavin's favorite thing to do! He is really good at it as well, so he really enjoys it. He doesn't care for loosing a game though. He is extremely competitive and when he gets to high school he wants to join the soccer team. That is only a year away!

Scouting

As much as I don't care for scouting, it is so good for the kids. Gavin received his Star! Almost to Eagle Gavin, keep up the great work!










































Garrett received his Palm. I haven't a clue if he can keep going, but as busy as he is this will probably be it.

Prom

I know it has been a long time since I have blogged. I hope you enjoy the pictures! We sure have cute kids! (and girlfriends)

Karenna is a doll! This dress was amazing, and she looked like a princess in it!
Careful don't stick each other!
I think Garrett was a nervous nelly!
There's the smile! Garrett was so sunburned from reffing soccer.

My Niece

This is my niece Cari. She doesn't have cancer, but they needed a model without hair. She has Aropecha. I thought you might all want to take a look at her ad. I was shocked to see it the first time, and realize that it was her. Kind of fun! We think that she is a great, and very confident without hair!
