That's a Wrap

We just wrapped up everyone's Spring season sports. We snuck in the Layton Temple open house between games.
Jaycee had a great season, she was player of the game 3 time! She led er team in assists, and ground balls, second in caused turn overs, and third in goals scored, and made the second team all region!
Wesley had a great season too, with several goals and assists. He sprained his ankle pretty good the day  before is playoff games. They made it to the final 4, they took 3rd.
Bensen had a fun season, he scored 2 goals and did awesome at defense. He is thinking about taking a break from soccer and trying taekwondo.
Viv killed it this year, we lost track of her goals, I think her high for a single game was 5 goals! She also likes playing some defense.
Me and Mike are looking forward to a little break before all the next things get started.
Then on the 23rd it was the last day of school. We said goodbye to 11th, 8th, 4th, and 2nd grades. The kids all did so good in school this year, much better than I ever did! Bensen and Viv were both pretty sad about leaving their teachers. Don't worry, I didn't let Wesley go to school like that. I forgot to take Jaycee and Wesley's pictures before they left, so I took them later that day.

May

Bensen had a piano recital and a soccer game on the same day. He played Mario, and Heart and Soul with his teacher. He did so good! While we were at the recital Mike and Wes were in Salt Lake for lacrosse.
Everyone has been pretty busy. We have Bensen and Vivian in soccer and Jaycee and Wesley in lacrosse. Everyone is scoring goals and kicking butt!
Northridge finally got their first win of Jaycee's high school career against Roy! We were all pretty excited. Jaycee played great!
One of my favorite places to eat is Bajios. They used to be all over, but know there is just one, and it is clear down in Orem! I have been talking to Mike about it for a while. He didn't think we could go all the way there just for food, so he found a hike we could go on. I think it was called Battle Creek Falls. It was a nice little hike, and lunch was amazing! I get the Green Chicken Chili Salad. Then we drove home the long way through Provo Canyon. It was a great day. The best thing about Mike working 4 10's is that we get to hang out and get things done on Fridays.
We drove up Trappers to try and see the Northern lights. It was kind of a bust. We could see them, but none for the kids were very impressed.

Happy Birthday Viv!

 
Happy Birthday Vivian! We sure love this girl! She is spunky, witty, funny and so smart! She completes us. This year she said she didn't need any toys, because she already has enough. She asked for books, games, puzzles, and a drum set. She was very happy with the little electronic drum pad we got her.

Also, Kailey married Trevor Truscott on April 19th in the Saratoga Springs Temple. Then had their reception in Joys garage. It was a great day!

Spring Break Day 4

 We started the day off with some General Conference. Then we headed over to the Dam visitors center so the kids could get their Jr Ranger badges. Today we hiked Wire Pass/Buckskin Gulch. We put in for the Wave lottery, but none of us got it. This was a great hike, the kids loved it! We went in about 3 miles. Most of the kids wanted to keep going, but we decided to head back. It is a good thing we did, the little kids were dragging the last mile back to the car. After we hiked we headed home. 

Another awesome Spring Break in the books!
