Kylie just started playing her very first sport this spring. She chose to play soccer. When she first started she was really excited and would chase around the ball, but as time went on it has become more of a fashion show or something. She is in la la land out on the Field. she will run as she is looking down at her pink cleats and she will flip her hair around. Every once in awhile she will kick the ball. She is so fun to watch because you never know what she will do out there. Her coach will ask for volunteers to come out and take a break and she will volunteer every time because she says she needs a rest and a drink. Depends on the day with her, but she is always excited to go. She told me one day that she was excited that it was a game day because that is when she got a treat. What a fun little girl, I can't wait to watch more.

Kylie's Soccer

Kaleb's is now 14
Holy crap how time flies. My son just turned 14 years old this month. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. He is becoming quite a young man. He has finally passed me up in height and we weigh the same right now, but not for long. I'm sure he will pass me up in that in the next couple of months. It has been an amazing 14 years having him in our family. Our family wouldn't be the same without him. We love you, Kaleb and we are glad you are part of our family.

Shakespeare
Sixth grade at our school means studying some Shakespeare. Each sixth grade class does a play. Carson's class did "The Comedy of Errors," where Carson played a merchant trying to gather money that he was owed. This is a fairly confusing play to follow. Carson took his part seriously and really did a good job memorizing his lines. He even memorized several other parts. He would practice his lines with me and I would tell him to speak slowly and clearly so everyone could understand him. I am pleased to say that he took my advice, because he was the loudest and most clear one in the play. Great Job Carson!
Dance
Kylie is improving so much in her dance class. I was so excited to see her dancing around the room. She is doing her rock and roll moves in this Picture.
This was the last day of dance for the year so they all had the chance to be 'A Star" in the middle of the room. They all got to wear a feather boa, a tiara, and carry a wand. When they got to the middle of the room, they twirled around and then posed for a picture.

It is so fun to watch your children grow and develop. Kylie is excited to dance again. Next year she will be in a performing group. I think she's most excited that she gets to have a costume.
D.A.R.E. Graduation
Carson graduated from DARE about a week ago. The entire sixth grade all graduated, so they were rewarded by going to Salsa Leedos for lunch and they are having a LaGoon Day for all DARE graduates later in the month. I am very proud of him for working so hard and learning about how drugs and alcohol affect our bodies. He took an interest in it and I believe he will Never touch the stuff. I am thankful that our principal allows the DARE program into our school because I think it is a great program. The West Jordan Mayor came to their graduation, along with the Police chief of West Jordan. They congratulated all of them. The police chief said that when any student graduates from DARE, they are actually put into the system. This means they have an actual record. If any of these students ever get into trouble with the law, it will show in the system that they are a DARE graduate.
