My Scouters

I am happy to say that both of my boys love scouts. They get excited every week to go and they love to earn merit badges. Skyler just earned his wolf badge (along with 5 arrow points and 3 belt loops). Boyd was just made a life scout. He is one merit badge away from being able to start his Eagle project. He is determined to have it by the time he turns 14.....go Boyd go,

Happy Birthday Cortnie

She is 18!!! She evens says it feels strange to be old enough to be an adult. Do we think she will ever act like one?????

Soccer Season

Yep...it is that time of year again (Rob's favorite)....soccer season. We spend two nights a week and every weekend at the soccer field. I think it is great to go there and enjoy the cool weather while watching the boys play. They are fun and I really get into the game. One of these days Boyd is actually going to score that goal for me so I can be the crazy mom on the sideline. He has come so close to many times that just once it has to go in. He has made two goals during the shoot-out competitions though. Skyker is an awesome player too. He can play any position and does very well at it. I am way proud of my boys and yes, I enjoy being a soccer mom.

Cortnie's Homecoming

I have always said that things in Bullhead are done very strange, and this is no exception. Here, you go to the school dances whether you have a date or not. Cortnie wanted to go to Homecoming, but she does not like the music at the dances. One of her good friends was having a Homecoming Party at her house instead. Cortnie decided to go there and had tons of fun. Problem was, she decided this two days before the party and it was a dress up occasion. We decided to take one of her old dresses and put rhinestones all over the top. Two days, and 12 hours later, we finished. She looked really cute and had a great time.

Skyler's New Look

Yep...Skyler is sporting a new look these days. I went to his parent teacher conference and recieved a note from his school nurse saying he had failed his eye exam. When I questioned Skyler about whether or not he was having a hard time seeing, he said "Only if I cover this eye. I can see fine if I keep them both open." So, Rob took him to the eye doctor and my little cute boy had to get glasses. I have to admit my heart was broken cause I did not want him to wear glasses. He is just so dang cute.

They eye doctor is in our ward, and I had told him Skyler was coming. Skyler was afraid that he would have to get contacts or have to wear just one glass eye piece. Topher played right along with our game. He told Skyler he needed glasses and said he would be right back. When he came back, he had a glass eye piece and told Skyler he would have to squeeze his eye really hard to make sure it did not fall off. Skyler immediately said he was not wearing that.....so Topher agreed to let him have glasses.

I have to admit...he still looks pretty dang cute!!
