On Your Marks… Get Set… Go!

Bryant did the SJH Track Camp this year. He loved it. They had a track meet at the end of the camp for all the parents to come watch their kids (be warned this track meet is 5 hrs. long). Bryant was so happy that he got every color of medal they had. He took 1st (gold) in the discus, 2nd (silver) in the shot put, 3rd (bronze) in the relay, 4th (a black medal) in the high jump, and I don’t know what place he took in the long jump, but it was black also. Bryant really enjoyed himself, and loved earning all the medals. Next year if we do it, I think we are going to take shifts with my parents so we don’t all have to be there for 5 hours.

Conner and Bry are also in Tennis Camp this year. While we were waiting for Bryant’s next event Conner showed us some of his skills.

Welcome Home Becky!!!

Becky (James’ little sister) came home from her mission in Russia. The my boys wrote her pretty faithfully during her mission, and were way excited for her to come home. I helped Chloe make her sign, but the boys did their’s all by themselves, even Ethan. Bryant’s sign says “Hi” in Russian, which just happened to be the first word she learned.




Becky was the perfect example of a good missionary for our kids. She really was quite the super missionary, she loved the work and the people so much. I’m kind of sad we won’t be getting her awesome letters anymore, but it’s fun having our Becky home again.





Kevin (James’ brother) wrote Becky and told her that a mission is like a marathon and at the very end you should sprint, and give it your all (I’m probably butchering this). So… I thought it would be cute/cool if we had a finish line for Becky to run through. I think it actually turned out weird, and she didn’t get why we were doing it.

I Promise to do my best...

We were so proud of Bryant, he worked really hard and earned his Wolf. He is such a good little boy scout.
