Jace and soccer

Jace recently started playing soccer. The first game he was a little bit shy and wanted his dad to hold his hand the entire time. But with each new game, his confidence is growing. He made a goal two weeks ago. Saturday's are the best thing to look forward to. He loves it.

Zarahemla

This past weekend we were able to go up to Morgan to some church property called Zarahemla. Dave's mom had her Ward camp out and invited us and his sister Amy to come up on Saturday. The kids had an awesome time just being able to run outside. We had lunch and decide to play in the river. They have a rope swing tied to a big tree. It was a lot of fun. The kids really had a fun time. We couldn't tear them from the river or the swing.

Our little girl starts Kindergarten

Abbey started kindergarten at Lincoln Elementary this past month. So far she has done really well and is writing her numbers, letters, and even names. She writes on everything she can get her hands on. Her teacher is Mrs. Jacobs and she really likes her and her other classmates. When asked about kindergarten Abbey indicates that “I like playing with my new friends the most”.

One day after school Abbey told her mother that Heavenly Father had answered her prayer to have friends at school. This was really awesome because it not only shows us that Abbey is growing up fast, but that she also understands her relationship with Heavenly Father and that she can pray to him when ever she wants.. Abbey is really starting to understand who she is. Needless to say it really choked her mother up.

July 4th

For the 4th of July, we went out to Myton to visit Grandma and Papa Fausett. We had a wonderful time seeing family. Kenyon, Tysen and their families were there as well.(Makele's brothers) We were able to go to our first Ute Tribe Pow Wow. The kids were amazed at all the different colors of the Indian dress. It was a lot of fun. We also went up to another small town, Neola for their Parade. It was small, but we were at the first and the kids scored a bunch of candy. The guys were able to put in a fire pit in the backyard. The kids were able to roast marsh mellows and make smores. They had a lot of fun getting smelly and dirty.
Abbey and Ty were excellent horse riders. While Jace just wanted to help Papa at the farm.

Family Vacation

For our vacation this summer we decided to stay home and do fun things around town. On Monday we went to Hungry Bear Pizza where the kids ate and played video games. That night we rode front runner and trax down to the Bees baseball game. On Tuesday, the kids enjoyed bowling and playing at the Kangaroo Zoo. It was a blast for the kids. We stayed there for about three hours. Wednesday we ventured to Park City to ride on the Alpine Slide and Coaster. The kids had a wonderful time. Dinner at Wendy's ended our small vacation. It was wonderful to just spend time as a family.

Park City

We had a wonderful time in Park City. The kids and I stayed a week. Dave was able to stay for a few days as well. Grandma and Papa Fausett have a timeshare and invited us to spend the week with them. At the Resort, they have a game and activity room for the kids to go and play and do arts and crafts. This helped pass time during the day as well as swimming alot. It was still a bit chilly, but it was fun. Thanks grandma and papa for such a wonderful time.

Jace's BDay

Jace turned 4 on May 2nd. We had several of his friends over that night to help celebrate. During the day we went to the Dinosaur Park up Ogden Canyon. His grandma and papa Fausett were able to go with us as well as, Aunt Amy and cousins Kyra and Jayden. We had a wonderful time there. For lunch we went to the wonderful Wendy's. We all had a great time. We love you Jace!!!
