February comes and goes

 Basketball, basketball, everywhere! Here are pics from the last day of basketball for our three younger kiddos.  Here is Graham's basketball team, he learned so much this year, and even made a game winning basket.

Carson is here playing deacon's basketball. He only got to go to one game, but it was such a pleasure to watch him play. Way to go, Carson!

Here is Kate's team. They were amazing! The started out learning about the game, but with amazing coaches, these girls really learned more than just fundamentals. They boxed out, did give and go's, and used the backboard on their shots. Kate made baskets every game, and several games, EVERY girl made a basket! What a fun team.

Valentine's day was great, Here is Graham's class playing a bean bag game I was in charge of. Funniest thing how the only girl in their group won every time!!!

We did our usual trip to St. George for President's Day Weekend. Kate played with her Forza team and Audrey guest played for a Sparta team.

We stayed at Grandma and Grandpa's trailer there, and went to dinner with them a couple of nights. Fun times.

We also brought along Kate's team mate, Harmoni! What fun for her, it was friends all day all weekend for Kate.

 Playing around at the Dixie rock was great - here the kids are, all squished into the narrow crevice. They all made it out . . .

Here they are climbing out.


 Audrey and her teammates that guest played on the Sparta team. They played well. Audrey played the entire three games, never sat on the bench once. They must have really needed her defense. She played well.

And then we got back home, and had a school spelling bee. Our cute Kate did so well!!! She had studied so hard, she knew those spelling words! They quickly got down to just three spellers, but all of those spellers did amazing! They spelled and spelled, not missing a word. Finally, they had to go off list. Kate never missed a word and was announced the winner two words into the championship words! So proud. The other two kids were 2nd and 3rd place. She now gets to go on to the Regional Spelling Bee.


February is Graham's birthday, so here we are celebrating with him. His party is March 1st, so he will get to celebrate for a couple of days. . . .



Here are some more pictures from the soccer tournament.
