McKenzie has been attending SLCC and living home this semester. She is working 2 jobs as well. She continues to work for the Faddis family who have a son that was severly injured about 20 years ago in an auto accident. She has now worked there about 2 1/2 years and loves it there. This has helped her decide to go into nursing and is currently working as a CNA at South Davis Hospital in Bountiful. She will have her associate degree after this semester and will apply to nursing school in January. It's hard to get accepted so we'll see.
Cole just wrapped up football season a couple of weeks ago and is now on the Viewmont basketball team - and has the blisters on his feet to prove it. The Viewmont team went 5-6 this year and had some real highs and lows. It came down to the last game in region to see if they would finish 2nd or 5th. The region was pretty evenly matched this year with everyone beating everyone. But unfortunatly for Viewmont they lost to Northridge that last game and so went into the state playoffs as a 5th seed. They ended up playing Alta High School, who have won State the last 2 years now and got beat up pretty bad
. Cole was disappointed big time. He loves, loves, loves football and was disappointed to see it end. On a high note though, he found this week that he was named first team all-region. Pretty cool to do that as as junior and with so many good players in Region 1. So the goal now is to eat, eat, eat, lift, lift, lift and eat some more to try and put on about 30-40 pounds by next summer. And believe me, my grocery bill is proof of that!

Brock played his second year of lacrosse. I'm still trying to figure out all the rules and ask Brock after each game to explain some of the calls or strategy. It's a new game to me and is the fastest growing sport in Utah. He has had fun and has met some new friends. 
Raymond has really gotten into mountain biking. This is a lot easier on his joints and he loves to see if he is "king of the mountain" by beating everyone up the mountain. He even drags me along sometimes. I think he likes to go with his buddies from work more because they can keep up with him. They like to go to Park City, Dear Valley, the Oquirrhs, Snowbasin, Mill Creek, and Mueller Park in Bountiful to name a few. He has a GPS system that he attaches to his bike that tracks each of his rides so he can then link onto a website of biking trails.
Me, I just try to make sure everyone is happy and gets to all the places they need to be and now a regular contributor to this blog.
