RAM Pride!!!

We were so excited to have Stetson playing football again this fall, after two years of playing tackle football in Saratoga he wasn't about to give it up. We were lucky enough to get him on the sixth-grade team (although he's only in fifth grade).

In order to figure out where he was going to play they had to do a weigh-in, with Stetson weighing in at 76 lbs. Although he was one of the smallest boys on the team he proved to be one of the toughest, having no fear of just getting in there and throwing those bigger boys to the ground!
He was chosen to play in the linebacker position where he did very well for the majority of the season. Toward the end of the season, coach switched him to corner so he could see the field better. He proved to be a tough defender, and won the respect of his teammates and coaches.

One of the highlights of the football season was being able to learn the Haka from Braxton (a polynesian teammate), and performing it for the fans before each home game and after each win!

The season ended with a record of 5 wins and 4 losses which put them in the playoffs. Their playoff game was against Beaver who beat them during the season with a score of 20-0. But our boys gave them a real run for their money in the playoff game with a score of 24-20; and had it not been for one Referees oversight and negligence in making the call on Beaver 'holding' our boys we certainly would've won...and Matt wouldn't have gotten thrown off the field!!

Girl's Get-Away!!

A couple of weeks ago us girls had the opportunity to get away to my mom's cousins family cabin. We were so excited to go spend time with just the girls and do what girls do best...

talking, laughing, shopping, and just plain having FUN!!!

This is far from what we were expecting by a "family cabin".

This place was top notch, absolutely beautiful, situated just overlooking Midway.

The home features 7 bedrooms/7 bathrooms, a family room on each of the 3 levels,

full kitchens and laundry rooms on the main level and in the basement,

a sauna, club house with swimming pool and hot tub (too bad we didn't know to bring our swimming suits), you name and it's got it...aMaZinG!!!

Here is a picture of us girls on Memorial Hill.

We were missing my sister Racquel, her oldest daughter Lexi,

my sis-in-law Heather and her daughter Shelby.

Although we were missing them, they were definitely the ones missing out!!

And here's a shot of me and Syd enjoying dinner and entertainment at Bear Dance Cafe in Midway. After spending the afternoon shopping the outlets in Park City who feels like cooking dinner? Not us!

We had so much fun getting to know our cousins better, learning a new game called Chicken Foot and laughing and carrying on. We can't wait to do it again!!
