CALIFORNIA OR BUST!!

We had the amazing experience on taking a quick trip with our friends, the Fogle's, to California!  Our kids had never seen a California beach so President Fogle took it upon himself to introduce them to a place that he loved.  We left Thursday at 6 p.m. and traveled all through the night and made it to Huntington Beach at 9 a.m.  

Oh and it was amazing!!

LOVED the:

boogie boards

seashells

starfish

sand

sun

waves

salt water

smiles and laughter!

I never thought it was possible to have so much sand in your shorts!

I even attempted to boogie board, I was never good at it

BUT  I did attempt it!!

We went to Huntington Beach one day,

Seal Beach & Knotts Berry Farm the next!!!

Sunday we traveled to Oceanside 1st ward and attended our meetings.

Traveled on down to San Diego and the Mormon Battallion.

Made it to Las Vegas that night and headed home the next morning!

Couldn't have been any better!

Thanks Fogle's

SOCCER

I LOVE SOCCER!!!

We are full swing in the season and having a blast.

Ashlyn is in it for the social and fun & most of the time she has a smile on her face!!

She is an amazing wing and can cross that ball like no other!!

Ashlyn also has a really strong leg,

so when she makes a shot she has a lot of power behind it! 

The girls love her on the team because she is reliable and consistent.

She lots of the girls with their scoring. 

In this game she had an amazing shot that fell right behind the

keepers head and landed perfectly in the goal!

LOVE watching her!!!

This is Tanner's senior year and that is all that I can say about that

without tearing up!!!

This game he got a hat trick (3 goals)!

He is the center midfielder and the play maker.

I love to watch him because of his footwork and he is so SMOOOOTH!

He also has a powerful shot and could make it from the

midfield line if he wanted to.  

I LOVE this game!!

We have great expectations for the end of the season!!

PHOTO SHOOT

Had a photo shoot on Sunday with the fam.

We needed to take some Senior pics of Tanner

& then all the other kids jumped on the wagon and wanted

theirs taken also.

Casey wasn't afraid to take up a pose also.

Such a fun night!

We met up with our friends the Shirley's and had 

a great time with them!  

Love my family!
