Well, we've been a busy family as of late.
We celebrated Micahel's 23rd birthday on Feb 19th . He and Megan are getting more and more excited for their wedding coming up at the end of April. Aren't they adorable together?
Bryce entered himself in the Nebo School district Middle School Weight lifting competition and Won 1st place in his weight division. He was surprised and very proud of himself. Here he is flexing and looking tough. He also just made the High School JV Soccer team.
What a stud!:)
Stephen has been attending lots of dances but this one is worth mentioning. He was asked by this young lady to her Sweethearts at Maple Mountain High School. The fun thing about this date is that Kayla is the Student Body President at her school and Stephen is the Student Body President at his school. She and Stepehn had gotten to know eachother thru different school functions. Maple Mountain is also Springville's rival school. They had a blast together and have become great friends.
"Now that's a lot of Political Power right there"!
We also celebrated Mike and Bryce's birthdays since they are within the same week.
Mike Feb 27, and Bryce Mar 2. Mike 50 and Bryce 15.
Mike and I hope to do a bigger party for our 50th Birthdays a bit later in the year.
There's too much going on!
But Bryce was so excited when Michael and Megan gave him 2 little chick's to raise for his birthday. They have been concerned about what he will do when Michael gets married and moves out and Stephen is on his mission. So, they thought this would give him somehting to do with his Dad. He was thrilled! Mike just said, "Oh boy".....
Last but not least we are awaiting at this very moment the arrival of Stephen's mission call.
He is such a character that kid! As soon as the time was exactly the amount of time that he could fill out his paperwork for his mission and send it in, he was on it.
We had little to do with it. Mike and I tried to get him to slow down and wait a bit to get other things done, but that's a laugh! It's a good thing I am such a laid back Mother because there is no stopping this boy! He is always charging full steam ahead and this time the determination in his heart was more than any of us could try to control. All I can say is thank-goodness he is driven in good ways and not in "other" ways:) because I would be a nervous wreck most of the time with his constant anxious ambition. I am truly blessed to have righteous sons who want to serve their Father in Heaven.
His call is on it's way and should be here by tomorrow!
All in all life is good. I thank my Father in Heaven everyday for the good in my life. I have truly been blessed. I wouldnt trade it for all the riches in the world!
In fact, I have all the riches in the world with my family!
