It's been a hectic but fun few months! The kids have been busy with plenty of extracurricular activities that keep us constantly on the go. Steve and I love this stage of life we are at and often wonder what we'll do for fun when our kids are grown! 
Carley is enjoying highschool life and made the freshman volleyball team. She had a lot of good playing time as one of their setters and was valuable across the front as a hitter as well. She was even named MVP at the awards banquet! She's developing into quite a good athlete and we enjoy watching her play. There will be no stopping her once she realizes how much talent she has. We have been so impressed with her this year as she has found ways to manage her time...she wakes up at 5 every morning so she can be out the door and to Seminary by 5:40 and then stays after school for practice until 5 every day. On game days she's gone until around 8 which leaves little time for anything else yet she has never once complained about getting up so early. She hasn't even been tardy once! And she maintains excellent grades. Now that volleyball is over she is helping coach softball at her old elementary school! Keep up the good work, Carley!
Cameron has thrived the past few months with his hectic schedule...this kid loves sports! He has been playing on a club baseball team which is basically year round, he made the flag football team at school, and then asked if he could try out for a club basketball team with his cousin Tanner. I hesitated at first not wanting to overschedule him (sounds funny I know!), but he was insistent that he would keep his grades up and be happy at home! So basketball it was! Football was every day after school, Mondays and Thursdays are basketball night, Tuesdays and Fridays are baseball night and Wednesdays is mutual! He's having a blast! Football just ended and his team won the cha
mpionship game! Basketball is coming to an end in the next couple of weeks and he has been named player of the week twice, and baseball is still baseball. Since there is no more football practice after school, Cameron decided to attend the basketball open gym today to gear up for school basketball tryouts! I'm exhausted just thinking about his schedule! Cameron loves it and loves to work hard and we have so much fun watching him on the court, in the field and at the plate! Caitlyn is still taking gymnastics from her Aunt Katie and loving it! She is constantly showing us her back bend or cartwheels and is trying to nail a back hand spring consistently. This year she decided to run on the cross country team at school, which means practices 3 days a week at 7:10 am and Saturday meets. Her first meet she placed 53rd out of 120 people. Second meet 18th, then 12th where she stayed for a couple we
eks. She has one more meet left and is hoping to make it into the top 10. She's had lots of family support but has especially enjoyed Aunt Katie coming to watch and her "tips" to help her improve. Thanks, Katie!
We are so proud of our kids and all that they do and what they've already accomplished. We are especially grateful for the close association with family on both sides who are so supportive and such an influence for good in their lives. We wouldn't be able to lead such hectic lives without them and all their help!! Thank you!
