Sweethearts Dance 2026

Wesley and Alexis 🩷Sweethearts 2026💜

 

November

We had fun at Wesley’s lacrosse tournament in Vegas this weekend! He got to try face-offs for the first time and even spent some time on defense. He says attack is still his favorite position!😀We also got to see Andrew, Cheryl and Quentin for a little bit, which was nice.

This house is officially braces-free…for now anyway 😬Wesley got his off on September 22, Viv got hers off November 3!

We got to see the Northern Lights from our house. Mike says they are a scam since you can only see them really well through a camera lens. The sky definitely looked a little red even with out the camera.

Wesley got asked to the Harvest dance by Aaliyah. They had fun.

Penny  got sick. One morning Wesley found that she had puked in her bed. I cleaned it up, after the kids went to school me and Mike went to a movie. When we got home we found that she had puked all over the house. It was everywhere. Then she was fine for a day...then the diarrhea started. It was definitely worse then the throw up. It was bad. It's times like these I am glad I don't let her on the couch, because I would have gotten rid of it. Mike shampooed the carpet I steam moped the floor and she was banished to a little section in the kitchen. I did end up taking her to the Dr. he gave me an antibiotic to give her. She is much better now.

Me and Mike went to Mueller for a ride and got rained on big time! It was so cold! It was bad enough that we didn't finish, we turned around before Elephant Rock. I don't know if I will go our again until it warms up a bit.

We went and saw the second part of Wicked on the 25th. Jaycee had to work, she went with Sarah and her family the day before. It was ok. I am at an age where if I sit down and I'm not doing anything then I am going to fall asleep...I tried really hard to stay awake, but I didn't. 😴

I only have one picture of Thanksgiving. We were with my family this year. Good food, good company.

On the 28th we went to the Christmas Tree Jubilee with the Ulrichs.

Happy Birthday Wesley!

Happy Birthday Wes! This was a big one. His birthday landed on a Wednesday, which is late start at school. First thing in the morning we were off to get his drivers license. He is a pretty good driver, but this is still scary. Then we came home and opened presents before every left for school. I am not going to lie, watching him drive off to school about killed me. My heart literally hurt...but he came back and I am going to be fine.

We are so blessed to have Wesley in our family. He is an amazing kid. He works hard, plays hard, and really never complains. 

We sure love him and we are excited to see what this year brings!

 

Track and National Jr Honor Society

 May is always full of a lot of things! Wesley decided to do track this year. He did the long jump and the high jump. In North end he took 9th with a 16’7” jump. His best jump of the season was 16’10”. Only the top 8 went to district. On the high jump he took 2nd at North end with a 5’8” jump, and tied for 5th at District with. 5’4”jump! Not to shabby, especially since he only went to track practice a few times because of lacrosse, which ended this week. He really enjoyed lacrosse too. Wes also had a 9th grade Honors banquet, which he attended with his cousins. These kids are so smart!  Then Jaycee had her National Honors Society end of year banquet.  I only took a video so I don't have any pictures. I can hardly believe that she is just about graduated. She also played her second to last lacrosse game. It was at Box Elder and most of the team went to Maddox after the game. Good memories.

Wesley!

Happy Birthday Wesley!

Wesley is so easy going, he never complains or argues...or really says much of anything!😅 j/k he really does talk. He is hardworking, and good at so many things. He had a great year and we are looking forward to all the will accomplish this year. It is crazy how much he changed in one year.

We love you Wes!

 

Happy Birthday Wes!

 Wes is the best, he is so easy going, smart, hard working, and he is good at anything he works to be good at. I only ever have to ask him to do things once. He hardly ever tells me "just a second"! He jumps up and does what we ask. He is also a straight face liar. Luckily I don't think that happens very often, but really I wouldn't know either way.😅 We sure love him! Oh...it is Penny's birthday too, so happy birthday Penny!
