Bombers Baseball

Zach played with the same superleague team again this year...the Utah Bombers. Some of the boys from last year decided not to play or play on other teams so some of the players changed this year. Even with those changes they had a fantastic season and really improved as a team. What a great group of boys!


Coaches Brandon, Kem, Brad


Peyton, Nick, Caden, Brayden, Easton, Zach, Camden, Parker, Parker, Stockton, Gerritt, Bryson





Bingham Competition Baseball

Bingham organized their rec teams a little bit different this year. In addition to their regular rec teams they made 2 competition teams that got to travel around and play different leagues instead of just playing other Bingham teams. Ryan was chosen to be on the Comp 1 team this year and had a great experience.

My favorite thing about Ryan being up to bat is his tongue sticking out....did it every time!

Spring Soccer

Owen played Spring soccer with his same team from the fall and they did awesome, ending the season undefeated. Although no official score or wins/losses is kept the kids know if they won or not; so do the parents :) Owen became aggressive this spring and really went after the ball. The team entered a tournament that didn't go as well as their regular season. They ended up playing 3 teams that were a year older than them, which really made a difference and ended up loosing all 3 games. But I was so proud of Owen and his determination to continue to give it 100%! For the first tournament game 2 of his teammates spent the whole game crying on the sidelines, which left Owen and 3 other kids that really didn't try. But Owen never gave up, he was strong to the end even though he was tired and had to stay in the whole game.

These are pictures from the regular season.



Christmas 2010

Oh wow, am I way behind! And I don't have a good excuse. But since this blog is to document our lives mainly for myself I will just try to catch up in the next few days.

We continued with our Christmas Eve tradition of going to temple square during the afternoon. Again we enjoyed the temple grounds without all the hustle and bustle and without all the crowds. Ralph and Edy joined us this year and I believe they enjoyed it also. Although we don't get to see the lights we do get to feel the Christmas Spirit, which is something I love. I'm sure this will continue to be a family tradition in the years to come.

This year the we didn't even need the reminder sign, although we still put it up. Jason and I ended up waking the kids up so we could get going.

Ry's favorite gift, an IPod nano, engraved with his name on the back.
Apparently we needed more Legos at our house! Zach's fav...an IPod dock.
