I got together with the guys the other night for a friendly game of dodgeball. While it was a bunch of fun it was also a reminder that I am not as young as I once was. Playing was no problem, but lifting my right arm for the next two days was.
Jaden is full of life and our little perfectionist. He is cool playing playstation or playing with friends. It seems as though all of his friends are girls.
Preston 10
Preston is the life of the party. He looks for the opportunity to add some levity to any situation. When he is not joking around he is in front of the playstation or playing basketball, baseball or soccer.
Nikki 13
Nikki is very active, playing flute in the school band. She also plays club volleyball and soccer, and has just started her modeling career. In her spare time she manages to pull off good grades in school.
Jahna 15
Jahna is the quiet one in the family, but her actions speak loudly. She is working hard to make the high school volleyball team next year by playing on a club team with the BHS coaches. She also plays the violin, piano and soccer, and she throws the discuss and shot put for Bingham HS..
Alexis 15
Alexis would have a hard time packing more into her life. She is constantly running...not figuratively, literally. Just for the high school she runs cross country, indoor track, spring track and then summer miles. She loves driving the convertible and works hard at maintaining good grades, and spends as much time as she can with her friends.
Tricia
So Tricia keeps all of the kids going... going to all of their various activities and offering up all kinds of support. And now she is going to work, a few nights a week at the encoding center for the US Postal Service.
Kyle
Kyle works hard to finance all of the activities of the rest of the family. In 2006 he started his own business, HistoricWoods by LunarCanyon and thoroughly enjoys this small business. It gives him the versatility he needs to deal with a neurological disorder and attempt to live a normal life.
Dari
After several years of looking and a couple of false starts with other animals we finally have a families' best friend. Dari was born on the Fourth of July 2005 and came to live with us a couple of months later. She is as tame a dog as we have ever seen and for the most part respects the limits we put on her in the house so she gets to stay close to the family. Her favorite thing is to ride in the car, with begging for any bit of attention she can get comming in a close second.
Kit Kat
Kit is a wonderful part of our family in an aloof-leave-me-alone sort of way. He hunts for mice, beheads them and leaves them in the hall for us to find. Then he spends his free time wandering through the neighbors houses.
