Jack's 6th grade GRADUATION!

Jack was quite excited to go to school today.

It was his last day at Panguitch Elementary School.


Jack with his Certificate of Completion from Elementary.
WOO HOO!

Jack shaking Mr. Barney's hand as he received his certificate
of completion from PES.

No more Elementary School!
Next year he may have his dad for a teacher, maybe.
What a lucky boy!
Way to go Jack!

Jaelyn at the State Republican Convention

Jaelyn was elected to be the State Chairman for TARS!
(Teenage Republicans)
She was sooooo excited to be able to meet
Mitt Romney and shake his hand.
This was some of the group from Garfield County.
She had a blast!!
I don't know how to add her video, so go to fb to see that.
But she spoke in front of 5,000 people at the convention.
AMAZING!!!! Way to go girl!!!
The following is a poem Jaelyn wrote on April 13, 2008, Entitled
"The Future"

Shall we allow
Our Country to repeat history
To go into depression
Or war or bigotry

Who will we choose
To run the country
Do we truly even care?

Our opinions are vital
We are the next generation
Are we taking a stand today
Or will we fall tomorrow?

Terror fills my thoughts
I hope there are others prepared
For I fear I am not

Am I that one person
Who is to make the difference
Or shall I go on living normally?

NO!
I will not!
I will be an individual
And aspire to pass the test
Of living in this world
Filled with turmoil, dejection, and revolt

If everyone cared
Wanted only the best,
Imagine the things we could achieve:
Helping EVERY dream come true
And creating endless happiness.

I thought that was pretty awesome, especially after her experiences this weekend at the Republican convention. She can make a difference in the world, one step at a time!! I'll share more of her poetry another time.

JACK IS "12" TODAY!

Happy 12th Birthday, Jack!!!
We started the day out with candles on his pancake.
Later he has requested, Chicken Spaghetti and Peach Cobbler.
He just loves it when his mom wants to take his picture (NOT)!!
He wanted to open his presents first thing this morning since
we all won't be together again till later this afternoon!
It's a good thing that it's baseball season, cuz that's what he wanted
for his bday. Some baseballs, a bat weight, and a new bat.


His team played in the Ice Breaker Tournament this weekend,
here in Panguitch.
They actually made it to the Championship game
but didn't win. Bummer!!
The team started at 8:30 a.m. Sat. morning and
finished their last game around 10 p.m.
FUN, FUN, FUN!!!
Happy Birthday to my BOY!!!
HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!

The Hills Are Alive with the Sound of Music!

"THE SOUND OF MUSIC"
The cast did an awesome job in the play!
I was so proud of everybody!!



They had a lot of fun! I am still singing the songs from the play.
Just yesterday, Jenson said: Why are you singing that again?
I don't know maybe cuz it's in my head after having watched it three
nights in a row!!! On Sunday morning when I turned the
radio on to Sunday music, the Mormon Tabernacle choir was singing: The hills are alive...
The girls both heard it and groaned!! They've had enough! Funny, funny!
They sure were awesome and a lot of fun to watch!



Party time!

A few birthday pictures!
Jenson and Addison had their bday party together.
They had lot of fun at the park with their friends.
Jenson and his Chuck E. Cheese cake! Thanks Poppa and Ma-Key!
Jenson's favorite picture with Chuck E.
Jenson and Addison.
Born within a day of each other. They are such cute
little friends!
