Final game

Wyatt had his final freshman game Wednesday night.  He did AWESOME!   It's nice when I hear people around me saying "that was a great pass" when Wyatt would throw the ball.   The final score was 47-0.  We have had a few tough loses this season but I believe we won 7 games and lost 4.   Great season for this boy. 

School 2013-2914

I am officially down to having 2 kids at home.  Samantha and Zach bought a house and moved in 2 weeks ago.  I'm excited for their new start together in their own home, but miss seeing Oakley every morning when I wake up.  Luckily they didn't move too far.  

Jess and Wyatt started school today.  Jess started her senior year and Wyatt started his freshman year.  I am on a hunt to get a job to keep me busy so I don't go crazy all alone at home.   

Well with the kids gone for the day, I'm off to the gym. 💟

Boys new project

Thayne and Wyatt went on the hunt for the perfect jeep for a father/son project. After looking for a few months they found the perfect one. I can't wait to see this baby finished.

The dance

Oh how I loved dancing when I was a teenager, and I loved going to stake dances and dancing with my friends and of course boys. I get excited every time my kids go to their first stake dance. I think I am more excited then they are. Tonight Wyatt is going to his first stake dance and I so wish I could go and take pictures but I know that's not cool so I just took a picture before he left.

Football update

There has been alot going on the last few weeks that I need to blog about and will try to get to it this week, but for now the big news is....

BULLDOGS ARE GOING TO CHAMPIONSHIPS NEXT WEEK!

It's been a strange season of football.   Wyatt is still playing the position of safety, but his coach has had him playing a little bit of quarterback too.   He played quarterback when the first string quarterback was out of town and we won that game which was a relief for me who was watching the game through my fingers.   It is very stressful when your kid is quarterback.   I believe their record right now is 7-2.    Yesterdays playoff game was a good game.   Parents from the other team went crazy after because they lost and cops had to be called but luckily no one was hurt.   Parents are crazy sometimes.  Seriously it is a kid sport and the adults have to add so much drama.  grrrrrr.


This is the last picture I got of the game yesterday.  
This is what a kid is supposed to look like when they move on to championships!

Does anyone else love that his rubber bands match his uniform.   This kid loves the color purple so this uniform has been great for him.



I have not been able to take a lot of pictures this season because most of the games have been at night and my night pictures always turn out horrible.  I am thankful for any pictures I have been able to get of him.

from 70 to 84

We are now cheering for the
BULLDOGS!

Wyatt has moved up to the Jr High team.   We are no longer Eagles, which is very sad.   The Jr High Schools only have flag football teams, so the league Wyatt has played on for many years offers a Jr High team.   It is nice because it is the team that will move up to the freshman team in High School.   It has been a good year for the team, they are undefeated 4-0.  

It's sad when I go to get my team shirt out to wear and my Eagle shirt just hangs there in my closet never to be worn again.  So so so sad.   Number 70 is a thing of the past too.   After 4 games I still have a hard time remembering to look for 84.  

 The one thing that does remains the same is that I have one handsome boy out there playing and I couldn't be more proud. 

The other bad thing is most of the games are at night and my pictures don't look good when I take them at night.   This weeks game is at noon and I am so super excited that I can get some pictures.   Woooohooooo!  

beginning of the 2 year journey

The last kid is officially in braces!

He is supposed to be in these babies for 2 years.  Funny how I want those 2 years to fly by so I can see his perfect little smile, but when I think Jessika will be graduating in 2 years I want the 2 years to go by slower so I can spend more time with her.   I am sure it will go by fast so I just better enjoy it.
