Cuteness

There is no purpose to this post, other than to show you how cute Asher is!  I love him!

Owny comes to visit

 This cute little nugget came to visit us!  We had a blast taking her to see the sights in St. George.

 We went to the Childrens Museum. Always a good time!
 This boy didn't stay with us much. He was doing his own thing.

We went to the splash pad after. Even though the days have been pretty warm, it was still pretty cold. 

 Owyn had a blast.

Such cute girls!  It was a great weekend.

Pink Cheetahs

It was the first night of soccer for the Pink Cheetahs.  Piper did awesome as goalie. She is so excited to have Stella and Preslie on her team!  Such a fun night!

Court of Honor

 Have I mentioned, how much I love a guy in uniform?  Gosh, when did my little boy get so handsome and so grown up?

 Tonight we had court of honor and April surprised me by awarding me the On My Honor award. I thought I was just there to take pictures and didn't even hear it when my name was called. It's such a neat honor to have received.

 This lady right here, I tell ya, I sure do love her. I am so sad to see her move away, even if it is only 15 minutes away. She has been invaluable to our stake for all the good she has done with the Young men and scouting. I"m so blessed to call her my friend.

Look at those cute boys!  So proud of JD and all the hard work he has put into scouts this year. It's been tough with Rugby to do to much, but he did manage to get 5 merit badges for this court of honor. He also has a few  in the works. Scouts is a lot of work and I am grateful for how hard he works at it.

SCC vs. United @ Dimple Dell

Hey this is jd again and i'm going to tell you about the game. So at first we were getting our butts handed to us by united. Then coach told us that we were soft that changed it. So we did win but I got a broken nose in the process and their thirteen got a concussion. Then we beat them in the under 120 game. That really made them mad. We showed them how to play rugby.

Glitter Pits, Shooting & fishing

 Spent the day hanging out with one of my favorite gals, Kerri and her cute boys. We took them out to the glitter pit.

 Also spent a little time shooting targets.

 Oh boy, am I in trouble. Sassy and she knows how to shoot. I love it!

We finished the day off by going fishing at the ponds. It was a great day.

Fishing

It's all fun and games until your brothers chase you with a fish. Had a great time today fishing. We took a picnic lunch and went to the park and spent the afternoon fishing.

Sand Cove

Just a night on the lake with lots of our favorite people! 

Snow Canyon Rugby Tournament

We've been waiting years for this game to begin!  JD is a starter on the open team. He plays #2, which is the hook. This was our first time playing and it was the Snow Canyon tournament.

I love, love, love that they say a prayer before the game. I love what these coaches are teaching my boy.

JD's job consists of throwing the ball in and rucking over his teammates when they go down.

He also gets to pass the ball out on occasion.

Umm, he doesn't look 12 here.

or here for that matter.

Down we go. But atleast his team got the ball.

Asher came and watched Rugby, but he was to busy playing with is new elk that Grammie bought him :).

Throwing it in from the sidelines.

This was when he went down pretty hard right in front of me. He looked at me and got right up and continued to play hard. I am so proud of him and all his hard work. This game makes me so nervous, but I am so grateful for these coaches and what they are teaching my boy!

This is JD. I have to say the first game we had was hard mostly on the team. Its our first game and we didn't want to lose. So we decided play hard and we won. United is the one in the black they put some effort in to it. We still won, but it was a long day playing rugby.
