That's a wrap

In the last couple of weeks we have wrapped up a few seasons. Vivians last game with the Ice Wolves (soccer) was this week. They ended with a win!


Bensen finished up volleyball. He loved it and he did so good, every week he got better.


Football ended for Wes. He worked hard and I think he had some fun. He did great coming off of his shoulder injury.

Jaycee played some 7v7 lacrosse. They had a great season and it was so fun to watch!


Tonight Jaycee had her last soccer game and they did a senior tribute after the game! She has loved getting to play with this team this fall.

Things will slow down a little bit, but not too much.
Wesley made the Sunset Jr. High basketball team, along with 3 of his cousins. Vivian just started Jr. Jazz.


Life is pretty busy, but we wouldn't have it any other way!

Family Pictures

I love this time of year! 
The beautiful colors, sunsets, ballgames, 70 degree weather, sitting by the fire and spending time with my family...these are a few of my favorite things!
Jaycee is graduating this year so we decided to go take some senior pictures. While we were at it, we took some family pictures. Some of the kids were more cooperative then others. 😏

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!

Alaska Day 7 & 8-At Sea, and Home

Our last day was at sea. We played some games, and ate a fancy dinner. We went to the shows every night, except this night. Guess what? We woke up not feeling the best.😞
We ate a light breakfast before getting off the ship.
As we were getting off the ship there were people coming on to clean in hazmat suits!
It was the real deal.
We started to really feel sick at the airport. We bought some Pepto and some sprite and powered through.
The funniest thing, we ran into Joy and Sawyer at the airport. They just got back from Japan.

Luckily we were able to make it home before we really went downhill.
We quarantined ourselves to our room when we got home, we didn't want to get the kids sick. 
I am so grateful we were able to enjoy the cruise, and for soft toilet paper (tmi), and medicine! I feel terrible for those that were sick on the ship, because this is the worst! I told Mike I would have made them helicopter me off the ship! 
It was reported that 168 passengers and 5 crew members were sick. I would say at least double those numbers!
About a week after we got home we saw in the news that our ship had a salmonella outbreak! Not Nora Virus as we expected. So technically we didn't need to quarantine ourselves away...oh well.
