Lighting aka The Destroyers

Brittany really enjoyed soccer this season. She actually learned a lot of about the fundamentals of the game. Thanks to her wonderful coaches, and good friends, The Wrights. Her greatest discovery was, "when you play your position, your don't have to run as much." ( good thing to know, I'd say). Even mom and dad learned the basic rule of soccer. We are actually becoming big fans of the sport! We feel sports for girls play such a rule in building self cofidence. So the fact that neither one of our girls, Brittany or Paige wanted the soccer season to end, is a good blessing for us. Way to go Lighting(Brittany) and Wild Strawberries (Paige).

May all your days be CIRCUS days

Amber and I took our girls to the 'Greatest Show on Earth'. It is always a toss up if that statement applies to the circus or the 7 of these girls all together.

Caroline, Amber and Aubrey

Sydnee, Paige, Lauren, Mallorie and Brittany

This was a girls only day--Circus, Dinner and Shopping. Good Times, Best Friends! We LOVE our girls!

Something to ASPIRE to!

Brittany and I and Maria and Melina had an official GNO (Miley Cyrus term for girls night out), or affectionately referred to as a Mommy-Daughter date! We went to the BYU Women's Soccer game and thanks to my dear friend Carolyn, it was a night we won't soon forget. Since the girls are playing soccer we thought they might enjoy watching the BIG girls play and getting a few pointers. Little did we know Carolyn (head trainer for the team) would give us the royal fan treatment! Brittany and Melina-pretty much "Big Time" Center field on the "Y"

Waiting for their personal autograph session, picture of the team ready.

The players were so gracious, asking the girls about their soccer experiences and encouraging them to keep playing and working hard.

Thanks for a wonderful GNO!

Great game, BYU- 2, Michigan State- 0. Go Cougars!

Cub Soccer for Paige

This is pure entertainment. Pretty much the only rule in this league is "don't use your hands", but everything else is free game. Paige has been working hard this season, and her BIG kicks are definite showstoppers. Thumbs up and ready to play!

Paige and Jayden- best friends, yet fierce competitors! HA!
Go Wild Strawberries!

Gift from the Islands

Travis had a brief layover in town and was able to come by and see us. We were thrilled to see him! The girls showed their true characters and all that that entails. Travis is now more anxious about his own twin girls! We like to think of it as free entertainment. Pure chaos, but entertainment none the less. Thanks for stopping by Travis and our new friend Clifton, we loved seeing you!

Lotoja 2008

My man ROCKS! For the 5th year in a row, Brent has completed this 206 mile bike ride from Logan, Utah to Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Any of you familiar with that route, it is continuous climbing. Brent completed the ride in 11:07, with his actually ride time being 10:50. (that's only 17 minutes off the bike the entire ride). Very impressive! Racing to the finish line. His tongue action shows his intensity!

Brent and his biggest cheerleader, AFTER his finish. He doesn't even look exhausted--Pretty Hot Stuff!

Diva Status

Dance class started today for Caroline. Her true diva status is now official! (her hair do is similar to the Napoleon Dynamite era, so beware)
