First Greg is still busy with work and a lot of traveling! He coached his 3rd grade team to win a championship which was very exciting!
Austin has been home from his mission for a year now and is attending UVU in Provo Utah. Which is great since Whitney graduated from HS in the spring and is now attending Utah State University in Logan, Utah. It has been fun for both of them to be close...but not to close! This is a picture at the BYU vs. USU game...BYU won in football but USU recently returned the favor by winning the Basketball game.
Whitney's senior year went by in a flash and it was very hard to see her graduate. In the spring we flew to Utah so she could try out for Cheerleader and she made the Utah State Squad which was very exciting. It was a great feat since just weeks before she had been in a cast! Yes after 10 years of club gymnastics she had a real injury- she had not qualified for state and was in the middle of competition cheer and was not happy about the cast. I had to admit that I think she lied to get it taken off early. So the cast came off she qualified for state and made cheerleader. whew!
Slade is about to turn 14 in a few weeks and is in 8th grade. He played 8th grade football and is busy with wrestling now. Wrestling is nice because it keeps him busy in between Football and Baseball...he is to tired to play XBox after wrestling practice that is 5 days a week. Slade is going to break the Mason mold this year and we are waiting to find out if he will become a "Man of Moeller" We are very excited for the opportunity to go to Moeller! Wish him luck!
Claire Bear is 10 and in 5th grade...She is my angel girl and the best big sister ever! She was very excited to move into Whitney's room when Whitney went to college...and yet still let's her Deacon come and sleep in her room! She has been very busy with gymnastics and cheerleading so busy so couldn't do fall ball which was very disappointing for her. Claire will start her Gymnastics season officially in just a few weeks as we will make our way to Cleveland for her first meet of the season. She changed gyms this year and is now competing for Queen City and loves it!
Deacon turned 5 in November and is an amazing kid! He starting playing baseball...his first game he got onto first base and asked me where he need to run to next...clearly he has not been watching the 100's of baseball games that he has gone to in the last 5 years of his life! He also started wrestling and it is the cutest and funniest thing that you have ever seen! I don't know what is cuter him in his singlet or him wrestling!
As for me...I am still working for KinderCare and loving it! It keeps me busy but flexible enough to add another activity to my schedule...I coached Claire's cheer team this year and was the President of MYF Cheer. It was a lot of fun and nice to spend time with Claire...of course Deacon can give you any of the Mason Cheers as well! I have spent a lot of time this year flying back and forth to Utah and spent more time in Logan in the last 9 months than I did growing up there! But it has been great to catch up with one of my favorite college roommates and spend time with my sister in laws and my mother in law.
So as we go into 2012 we are once again reminded how blessed we are! We have been blessed with employment, great friends, our health and amazing children that I am grateful for everyday!
