THE PROMISED UPDATE!


Where to begin?? Lets take a look back at the end of school year and the summer.....Zac and Cory played baseball. They both did really great and it was a lot of fun to watch.
Zac and I took a short trip up to Cascade in June to watch Jessica, Bailey and Josh play softball and baseball. We took lots of great pics and got to relax and hang out!!
Zac took swim lessons again this year! I am so proud of him. Due to his parents lack of interest he was behind for his age but between this year and last year he is doing soooo great!! Now he can save me!!

In July we invited Chrissy to go to the park with the 3 of us to see "Hotel For Dogs". We brought our lawn chairs, blankets and snacks and camped out and had some fun! What a relaxing time!

Josh and Jessica came down the end of July and spent some time with us. Jess stayed a few nights with us and then went to visit Chrissy. Josh stayed for about 2 weeks. He and Zac had such a great time! They played football, video games and went to Boys and Girls Club. Zac loved the B & G Club this summer. It was just the something different he needed this summer.

Cory participated in Bam Jam in August. That's a 3 on 3 basketball tournament that goes on downtown. Unfortunately he, Sarah, Chelsey and Dustin were far better than the rest so it wasn't much of a contest. But it was a lot of fun to watch them and we watched the slam dunk contest too. It was pretty great. The kid who won had a guy sit at a table and eat while he jumped over him and the table and dunked the ball. He was totally cool!! It was a fun weekend!

Jamie stayed very busy this summer. She was working so much we didn't see her a lot but she did manage to come to the water park with us a few times. Then she came to stay with us for a bit while she looked for apartments. We loved having her here! Zac especially had a fun time while she was here. He loved seeing her and hanging out with her all the time. Steve also but he wasn't as vocal about it. I loved hearing her go on and on every night about her day. I miss that. Now she is back in school and has her own apartment so haven't seen her as much but we are proud of her!

Football practice started in August. We have a new coach this year and some new and some old teammates. It was hottttttttt!!! for the first few weeks but is not so bad now. Zac is having fun and we have now had a couple of games. Kelly, Jamie, Casey, Grandma Rose, Grandpa, April, Jeff, Jessica, Bailey, Josh and Christopher have all come to watch. He thinks it is so cool when people come to watch! Thanks to everyone who has made it! Now we do homework, go to school, go to football practice, go to games and that is about it! But Zac is growing up so fast! He is such a great kid.... we are soooo lucky.

Cory is playing now too. He is still a wide receiver and helping on defense but this year he has started kicking the ball more too. He has kicked a few field goals and pat's and has been doing most of the kick offs. Oh and last week he was in the Homecoming Court. He was named the Duke! It was cute! We don't see much of him but he came to Grandma's last week and we played spoons and football! Fun was had by all. I can't believe he is a grown up senior now. Crazy!

So lastly, my husband and I. We are doing fine. Working, going to sports and a little fun here and there. The typical adult life I guess. But we have each other and our great family so I would say we are above average in the lucky area. Life is pretty great most day! Except today my hubby is in Eastern Idaho for work and they want him to go away for 2 weeks. Now I know some people do this all the time (Debbie and Christine!) but I am very used to my husband being home and VERY involved so I am a little freaked out. We will see how it goes but I am not going to be happy probably.

There are things I am sure I missed but now you are caught up! I will get you some pics and I will do better! Welcome back!
