CRUISE 2010

WE LEFT LAST WEEK FOR OUR CRUISE OUT OF THE LONG BEACH PORT WITH NO KIDS. THANKS TO JESSICA FOR KEEPING OUR CLAN....





HOLLIE GOT A GREAT DEAL ON OUR UPGRADED ROOM. I WAS GLAD WE DID. IT HAD A BALCONY, WALK IN CLOSET AND JETTED TUB.



HERE IS A PICTURE OF THE OUR SHIP. WE WERE IN CATALINA ISLAND OFF OF CALIFORNIA.

WE HAD FUN LITTLE SHOPS TO GO IN. WE BOUGHT SOME SHIRTS FOR THE KIDS. WE WENT PARASAILING IN CATALINA.

THIS IS IN ENSENADA,MEXICO, HOLLIE AND I GOT LITTLE DIRTY ON THE ATV RIDE.

WE DECIDED TO STAY AN EXTRA DAY IN LOS ANGELES AND WENT TO UNIVERSAL STUDIOS. MY FIRST TIME.

HOLLIE MEET UP WITH SOME OLD BOYFRIENDS THERE.

MAN, I'M GETTING A LITTLE BIG THE MIDDLE SECTION. MY GIRLS TOLD ME I'M FAT, AND I NEED TO GOING WALKING WITH HOLLIE.

SCOUT OVERNIGHT TRIP

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A TIME OR TWO TO HAVE BRAYDEN TURN 12. I HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN SCOUTING FOR YEARS IN OUR WARD. IT'S REALLY FUN TO HAVE MY OWN SON TO BE APART OF IT ALL.

WE SPENT A RAINY NIGHT AT HOLLIE'S GRANDPA'S PROPERTY. I DIDN'T BRING A TENT, BECAUSE I WAS GOING TO SLEEP IN THE BACK OF MY TENT. LUCKILY, I HAD A TARP, OR I WOULD HAVE BEEN REALLY WET.

THE NEXT MORNING THE SUN CAME OUT, AND WE WERE ABLE TO SHOOT SKEET. THIS WAS ANOTHER FIRST FOR BRAYDEN, AND HE DID REALLY WELL SHOOTING 6 OUT OF 10.

THE BOYS HAD A LOT OF FUN, AND THEY WERE ABLE TO TAME THE MOUNTAIN.

HOLLIE (THE PRODUCER, AND SOCCER MOM)

HOLLIE THOUGHT SHE WOULD BE FUNNY AND PUT SOME CLIPS IN THE MIDDLE OF VIDEOING LEXI'S GAME. SO I COULD SEE THEM WHEN I WAS REVIEWING THE TAPE. I THINK EVERYONE SHOULD SEE THEM. HOPE YOU HAVE FUN WITH THE CLIPS AS MUCH AS I DID.

LEXI GOING FOR MVP

LEXI PLAYED HER LITTLE HEART OUT, LAST NIGHT. THIS TEAM BEAT US 9 TO 0 IN INDOOR SOCCER, AND WE ONLY LOST 5 TO 7. LOOKING AT THE VIDEO, WE HAD A GOOD CHANCE OF BEATING THEM. MAYBE NEXT TIME!!! LEXI FINISHED WITH 3 GOALS, AND 2 SHE SHOULD HAD MADE.

ANOTHER WEEK ON THE BOOKS

WE HAVE HIT FULL STEAM IN SOCCER SEASON. KELSIE HAVING A BALL RUNNING AROUND IN HER GAMES.

LEXI ALSO IS DOING WELL, SHE IS AVERAGING 3 GOALS A GAME. SHE IS PLAYING AT LEAST 2 GAMES A WEEK AND PRACTICING TWICE A WEEK.

BRAYDEN HAVING A BALL PLAYING ON THE STATE LEVEL. WE HAVE BEEN TRAVELING QUITE A BIT. WE WERE IN TOOELE OVER THE WEEKEND, AND BRADYEN HAD 5 GOALS. THREE OF THE GOALS, HE WAS ABLE TO DRIBBLE PAST THE GOALIE INTO THE NET. THEY ARE MAKING THEIR DAD BROKE, BUT I DON'T MIND.

SORRY, I SHOULD HAVE HAD VIDEO OF BRAYDEN, AND I EVEN BRING ON VIDEO CAMERA TO THE GAME, BUT I GET WATCHING THE GAME AND FORGET TO VIDEO.

CONT.

KELSIE WAS THE SECOND GAME, AND SHE DID WELL. I THINK SHE IF SCORED A COUPLE OF GAMES. SHE IS A VERY CUTE KID.

BRAYDEN'S TEAM WON, HE HAD SEVERAL SHOTS ON GOAL, BUT I WAS SO EXCITED WATCHING HIM, I COULDN'T VIDEO VERY WELL. HE HAD A COUPLE OF GOALS. THERE WAS ONE THAT HE WAS ABLE TO DRIBBLE WITH 3 DEFENDERS ALL THE WAY TO GOAL, AND THEN HE HIT IT OFF THE GOAL POST. ALL THE KIDS DID A GOOD JOB.

SOCCER SEASON HAS STARTED!!!!!!

LEXI STARTED THE MORNING SCORING THREE GOALS IN THE FIRST 5 MINUTES. SHE WOULDN'T STOP SO I HAD TO PUT BACK IN DEFENSIVE AND THAN FINALLY AT GOALIE, BUT SHE FINISHED THE DAY WITH 7 GOALS. I HAD BRAYDEN VIDEO TAPE. HIS A FUNNY KID.

Listen to the last of the video. You can hear Brayden cheering for his little sister!!!

OGDEN KNIGHT'S FOOTBALL GAME

I TOOK LEXI AND BRAYDEN TO THE FAIRGROUND TO SEE THE OGDEN KNIGHT FOOTBALL GAME. IT WAS OK, BUT IT WASN'T EVEN CLOSE TO THE BLAZE. THE KIDS LIKED IT, AND IT WASN'T SO BAD.
