What Time is it? Summer Time

So Schools out yeah I think I am as excited as the kids are.



Carson ended the year with stellar grades and competed in the hershey track meet and made it to county in the 200, the 400 and the long jump. He was asked to do the relay and took 1st place. He attended a football camp and learned a lot. He is looking forward to the upcoming football season. He is staying up late playing with friends and taking it easy.



Cambria is bored already and has watched every episode of Hannah Montana, That's so Raven, Suite Life of Zack and Cody that has ever been made. I bought her some books to read this summer she is going to start on those.



Cyrie is excited to have her siblings home with her. I think that Nemo is burned out and she has started in on Monsters Inc. and the Increadibles. She is learning every day and is so stinking smart. Her new thing is trying to wink. It is hillarious! She loves to bounce on the trampoline or on the bed. She moved into Cambria's room this week they are both excited about that. We'll see how much sleep the two of them get.



Rob is getting excited to go to the US Open with his brother and for Helena to visit. What a great fathers day present. Fun Fun Fun.



As for me I am still trying to keep up with all the above. This is why I only blog every quarter. We will be planning weekly summer field trips I'll let you know how it goes. Anyway, happy reading and I hope that you all have a great summer also.

Whew the Holidays are over and we are headed to a new year.

Carson is playing basketball right now and is having fun. He is on a new team and has had to make some new friends. He continues to do well in school and has a fun personality that is shining through.

Cambria is enjoying her Hannah Montana electric guitar that she got for Christmas and now wants to take guitar lessons. I might take them with her.

Cyrie is busy as ever. She now can not only open the doors but she can reach up about 6 inches onto the counter. She likes to feel what little things are left up there for her entertainment and pleasure. We have to make sure that scissors, pencils, and anything else dangerous, are off the counter. She is busy, busy, busy.

Rob is staying busy selling cars and doing better. He got called as the Service Coordinator for our church and will be busy with that calling.

I am still busy at work. Some days I would like to pass out birth control on the corners. I shouldn't complain it is good job security. We are getting excited for Grandma and Grandpa Scott to come home in February. We have missed them terribly.

We hope that all of our friends and family had a great Holiday Season. It was fun to see all of your Christmas Cards.

ABOUT CARSON.....
Carson made history this last week. It is the first time that the Hurricane 3rd grade football team have made it to the playoffs. They unfortunately lost but they did awesome and Carson caught several passes.

Carson was also in the Spectrum Newspaper over the weekend. He was chosen by his teacher to be in the Coral Canyon Core Committee. The kids had to come up with ideas to improve the playground and get donations from businesses. They had to budget it out and present it to the principal for approval. On Friday we painted the blacktop. We painted jump rope circles, number lines, maps of Utah and the United States. It was a good experience for the kids. Carson knows that he does NOT want to be a painter.

ABOUT CAMBRIA

Cambria is doing great in school and she keeps us in stitches. She says the funniest things. We are having a hard time with keeping her room clean. (My mom would say paybacks are ....) We have had to resort to boxing up all but two of her dolls, two stuffed animals, and two color books because she can't pick up all of her things. We will keep you posted on how this is working.


ABOUT CYRIE

Cyrie just thinks she is a big as the other two. She runs around the house and has such a cute personality. She has changed her dance moves instead of just bouncing up and down she now shakes her head as if to say no. But she keeps the beat of the music pretty well. She still only has two teeth but can eat anything. I'm not sure how that works but she does it. She had her 1st birthday on the 24th of October and we had a little family celebration. She was hesitant at first to touch her cake but it didn't last long. She learned a new work on Halloween, she now can say Treat. Isn't that great!


Halloween was fun of course it always is. We kept the tradition alive and had to go toilet papering with the kids. We did 5 houses and were up until midnight. We had a long night of fun. Cambria didn't like it so much she was scared and asked me if it was illegal. She is such a sweet kid she even ducked in the truck when a car passed as we were driving home because she didn't want to get in trouble. I think she is traumatized by it. She may not want to participate in the years to come. The rest of us had fun. (Pictures to follow)

ABOUT ROB

Rob will turn the big 40 in December and we are gearing up for his party. He has been receiving a gift each day until his birthday on the 3rd. Hopefully we can get past this one without a mid-life crisis. He had a great month of selling cars last month yeah!!! Hopefully it will run into this month as well.

ABOUT TONYA

Nothing too exciting is happening to me personally. Still just work, kids, house, and a little sleep in between. Still living the dream.
