Speedy


Today May 8th Mckay competed in the 4th grade Hershey's Track Meet.  The Track meet is held at Payson High every year in the spring on different days they have different grades and 7 elementary schools all compete.  This is such a fun event my kids love it-it is one of the things we love about Nebo School district the opportunity to do things like this. Macrus competed last week and he did great he made it to the semi-finals and then got out. He was super excited to just compete. Today Mckay competed and he lived up to his nickname "Speedy".  He is Super fast and on his soccer teams nobody can beat him in a race.  Today he raced the 50 meter and made it to the semi finals-came in first and then made it to the final were he came in fourth!  He did GREAT he raced 7 different schools and got 4th! He is truly speedy! I was so impressed! Love my BOYS!  Congrats Marcus and Mckay!

Soon To be M.I.A.




Spring is the busiest time of year for us! I can't believe how busy life all of the sudden gets.  So I will probably not be posting and will be MIA for awhile.  This week kicks off with a BANG its Baseball season! We only have Matthew and Marcus playing but with games 2 nights a week for both and a practice that's alot of running around for me! Matthew is playing in a league that is playing in Nephi and Santaquin and Salem so we will literally be all over! This is the first year Marcus is playing in "Big Boy" league as the boys call it were they actually keep score and it counts-he is SUPER excited! We have all kinds of end of year school  shows, and projects etc..... Mckay is also playing Club Soccer and has been deciding between two teams which has been crazy-two different teams want him to play with them!! Decisions.....decisions...So life is hectic-but if you know me I like keeping busy! I just hope its not to BUSY!! I know I know wishful thinking! So that's were we will be camped somewhere between the baseball park, school and the soccer field!

Marcu-saures...........




On April 12 we celebrated Marcus 9th Birthday! We use to call him Marcu-saures because he use to LOVE dinosaurs so much and would play with them all day everyday. Not so much anymore he still loves animals but has moved on from the dinosaurs. Marcus wanted to go to the Zoo for his Birthday so that's just what we did. He is a lucky duck every year his Birthday falls during Spring Break at school so he doesn't have to go to school! We had a fun day and he asks me all the time when we can go back! Marcus also had a "late night" at our house with 3 friends Nicholas, Brennen and Mckay (brother) these three would be his Best Buddies! They had a good time played video games ate pizza and watched a movie all smiles from the boys! I can't believe he is getting so big considering he is the runt in the family! He is usually the smallest kid in the class but sure has a cute personality! Marcus loves to play with friends, play video games, read Fable Haven, loves animals, basketball, baseball and swimming. Marcus is very sensitive and gets his feelings hurt easily I think he is sensitive to others because of this.  He also loves to go to scouts and loves the gospel he wants to bare his testimony every chance he gets he says church music is when he feels the spirit most! I admire his sweet testimony and love for others! What a special part of our family he is! Happy Birthday Marcus!
