ACCEPTED!!!!

She finally heard! Lexi has been accepted to BYU Provo. She is very excited and ready to leave tomorrow! Well, maybe not quite that soon but she is excited for the next chapter in her life. Go Cougars!

5 month old Giant

Cooper turned 5 months old today and is the size of most full-grown dogs. He weighed in at a hefty 82 lbs. and can now see out the window on his own. He loves to look out the window but doesn't like seeing his buddies get on that school bus every morning. He continues to be a big chicken but his bark is definitely starting to sound intimidating. So between size and bark, he may make a decent watch dog afterall - as long as the burglar doesn't look at him and he catches him between naps! We love our Gentle Giant!!!

"Why is that guy so tan?"

Indoor Soccer

McKenna got to play her first indoor soccer game last weekend. And lived to tell about it! She seemed to like it inspite of being thrown into the wall, knocked around by bigger players and having to get up at 6 am on a Saturday morning. What's not to like? And her team even managed to pull out a win their first time: 4-1. Way to go Firecrackers!

Life-Size Mormonopoly

We had a fun activity for our youth last night. We made a huge "Mormon-opoly" board and had popcorn to snack on. We even had huge dice to roll. It was a little crazy but all in all, they had a great time. Quite a few were asking when we could play it again.

Phrases not ordinarily heard in the Church.....

"Somebody give me money cuz I own Bethlehem."

"OK everybody, pay attention! We're getting ready to auction off the temple."

"Are you in jail? - No, we're just visit teaching."

"OK, we're trading the Urim & Thummim"

Move Over Momma!

Cooper now thinks he owns the front seat of the car. He's all thinkin' he's COOL headin' to puppy kindergarten. I reminded him it's Stupid School.

Do Your Ears Hang Low?

"Are you guys sure I'll grow into these ears?"
