March 2013: by Becky
It’s the last week of our term, so it’s always an interesting challenge to hold onto or try to get those A’s!! I texted Isaac during lunch one day and reminded him to check for extra credit opportunities, and now all of his friends think I’m crazy…since he had all A’s except one A- at the time. Auriana impressed us by scoring a 28 on her ACT.
We spent a few days down in St. George for soccer tournaments in February. It was so nice to soak up the sun for a few days. Natalie and Enoch played and they both did great!! Natalie’s team placed 1st in their bracket, so they went to the next level before losing. She continues to be an amazing defender!
Enoch’s team made it to the championship game in their bracket. They had to play the only team that had beat them (5-2), and they held them at 0-0 until the very end. It was and exciting game and a tough loss, especially since Enoch came so close to scoring, but he always recovers pretty quickly! He’s playing forward now, which he hasn’t done before. It’s not quite as stressful for me to watch as it was when he was goalie, but almost!
We stayed in a little house and had a much needed vacation…the kids discovered the fun of racquetball and tennis, and we all just enjoyed the time together. One night Enoch and Isaac were alone in the racquetball court when the lights when out. It was pitch black and quite an adventure for them to find their way out.
It was so fun to have Mom and Dad and Brenda stay with us for a few days and to see Teresa a little more often! And it was very neat to be there for Auriana’s Patriarchal Blessing! Brenda had surgery and we’re so glad her knee is feeling better! We even got to see Matt and Camille for a few hours. Lilly is so cute!!
Auriana is leaving for Seattle for choir tour today…we're hoping she sends a picture from the top of the Space Needle.
Isaac has finally found an Eagle project that he’s happy about…we’ll let you know how that turns out!!
Natalie and I are trying to figure out what she can wear for her Irish dance recital, she’s supposed to dress as an “evangelist???…if you have any ideas you can let me know.
Enoch is enjoying wearing the one pair of socks that he likes, over and over...feel free to share your parental tips!
Miriam is trying hard to beat her best friend (who always wins) in reading minutes for this week to win a book…we’ll let you know if it works out for her!
Today Ellie gets to build a Leprechaun trap…we’ll let you know if she catches anything.
