First day of school

Kaison said he was only going to get one green card from his teacher all year. He said "I am going to get mostly yellow". (A green card is givenfor good behavior, Yellow for those who are not doing as well as they should, Red means you need to improve) Chandler, Brenen, and Trey were not as excited for school this year until this morning. Now they are ready to go and cant wait to see who is in their class. Superman will be at home with Mom this year.

Haleighs Dance Teams

Haleigh is a co-captian of one dance team and an instructor of another.

Haleighs Birthday

Superman doing his hair

Superman wanted his hair done. I guess Mom was not fast enough. Its a good this he is self motivated and got the job done himself.

Chandler loves sharks. Look at the smile on his face.

Treys Birthday

Boys will be boys

Temple in July

We had a family home evening at the temple. It was fun to watch the kids.

Trey looks so cute. I wonder what he is thinking?

After spending a few months with cousins in Arizona, Haleighs home. We really missed her while she was gone. She is ready for her Senior year of high school and dance team. She is one of the Captains.

SUPERMANS ABC's

Braces

Both Haleigh and Dalley have their braces off. See how happy they are.

End of the School Year 2011

Chandler received the Presidential Award for Academic Excellence and Quality Counts award. Brenen received a PE award along with some other awards that got lost. Trey received an award for Academic Excellence, Paws of Pride for trying to raise money for the school during these tough economic times. Mrs. Douglass (the principal) gave him the award and a teddy bear (Trey named Steve) as a thank you for being so caring and thoughtful. I am so proud of my boys this year.

Field Day

Field day is a lot of fun. Brenen just loves to eat and compete.

For Trey field day is a time to play and be with his friends.

Kaison and Superman see field day as a time to get some ice cream and play on the play ground.

And for Chandler its an opportunity to skip school.

Dalleys Birthday

Jumpin Jivers

Trey was on the Junior Jumpin Jivers this year at school. He really enjoyed it.

Easter 2011

Don’t you just love Easter time. We are coming out of winter into a time where the grass gets greener, the sky is bluer, and the sun is shining more. It is the perfect time of year to remember the death and resurrection of the Savior as we come out of Winter into Spring. What a great blessing and gift we have been given from our big brother and Savior, Jesus Christ. We celebrated by going to church and having John and Kathy over with their kids. Aubree was home from college and the kids were out for spring break. It was a nice relaxing week. Since we got back so late from picking up Aubree from school, we had our Easter egg hunt for Family Home Evening. It lasted 45 minutes because the big girls hid the eggs so well. Superman was a little upset anytime someone found an egg. I think he thought he was the only one who should find them. This picture of him getting an egg under the garden hose bucket was taken because he found it all by himself. He was good at looking for eggs. It was a lot of fun.

Brenens Baseball Season

Brenen

is playing baseball for the Dodgers. He plays pitcher and 3rd base. He loves the game and is a strike out pitcher. He is always confident unless his Uncle Rod is watching and then he gets real nervous because he is Bo's dad. Brenen idolized Bo and wants to be just like him. Their team has only lost two games this season.They took second in the league. GO DODGERS!! Brenen was invited to try out for the all star team.

Dalleys Track Season

Dalley loves to run. Even when she is sore and tired she will keep going. She shows her determination and desire to work hard. She impresses her family. What a great example to her younger brothers.

Dalley was in the play "Grease". She was a pink lady. Isnt she so cute?????

Jerry Lewis (not Jerry Lewis the comedian)

In February of this year Chads grandma Honey passed away. She was a very kind and sweet woman. Our family decided to go to the funeral. When we got there we met Chads biological father, Jerry Lewis. He had never met myself (Kayleen) and the kids. It was a good experience for us all. We also saw Chads half brother and sister Kacey and Kelly Lewis.
