Ok, I know it has been awhile, so I have to do a lot of catch up. . . first of all, I HAVE to congratulate the STATE CHAMPIONS!! I have had so much fun coaching this year. It has been one of those things that have kept me so busy and has driven me crazy at times, but in the end, every minute was worth it! It was so rewarding watching those girls achieve their goals that they wanted so much. They are all so awesome and they truly deserve it!

We won STATE last year too, but after losing 6 seniors, they were not expected to have the same outcome. Honestly, I wasn't quite sure either, but they worked hard and came through when it really counted.

One of the funnest moments was in the bottom of the 7th inning with two outs, all of the high- school boys along the outfield fence ripped off their shirts and spelled "Back-to-Back" and the whole place went crazy! And then they charged the field. It was so fun to see so many people there too! South Jordan even gave them a police escort to the school. It was also cool because this is Bingham's Centennial year. Wow! 100.

Back to our life. . . in the middle of all of this coaching stuff, Abby and Carson are both playing baseball this year, and between us all, we have a packed week. Carson is playing coach pitch/t-ball for the cubs and Chad is the coach.

He has done pretty good so far. He gets a little distracted when they are in the field, as you would expect from Carson. We have to keep him motivated.


As you can see, he is posing for the picture. He wasn't that into it until we told him that we would take him to Chucky Cheese if he didn't have to use the T. As soon as the deal was made, he has been hitting it every time. He is a goof ball!

Carson also had his pre-school graduation this week. (Well, not really a graduation seeing that he will be going again next year, but whatever)

Abby is playing machine pitch baseball this year on the Red Sox. She is having tons of fun. She is playing with a bunch of boys, but her friends Ava and Katie are also on the team, which makes it super fun for her. She even gets to use Ava's pink helmet! Cool!

She is actually doing really good. This is her first year playing, and I wasn't sure about the whole machine thing, but she is doing great and loving it!

She also decided to add to the crazy week with her big final dance recital, which was two hours after the start of the state championship game. She also loves dancing. She loves to get all dolled up and she does such a great job, she must get it from her Aunt Jamie.

Cooper is running around everywhere. I feel bad because he has turned into a ballpark baby, but actually what kind of childhood would it be if he wasn't. He loves running around all of the baseball games and eating all of the snacks. He can't remember what a real meal is like.

He is actually between hair colors right now. He is not sure what he wants to be blonde/brown? He has always had dark hair, but lately I'm not sure what color it is and it usually depends on the day and the outfit.

Yesterday, we went to see the new Oquirrh Mountain Temple right around the corner. It was beautiful! I want to get married there! I was able to volunteer there last week and President Eyring came with his family. It was exciting.
Justin and Amy came with us. They are in town this week and they brought the cutest chubby baby I have ever seen. She is so happy and I know she still thinks we are all crazy, as she was just trying to have a nice bath and Cooper turned it into an amusement ride.
Well, now that softball is over maybe things will get back to normal. . .well, what is normal anymore? I don't know, but I love it all!
