Glasses

A few months ago Jacob failed his eye test at the doctor's office. We had to take him to an opthamologist because my doc thought he may have lazy eye and wanted a specialist to check him out. Well it turned out that it was just a bad case of nearsightedness. So today we got the call that his glasses were ready. We were lucky to have gotten the glasses for free but the doctor recommended getting him sports goggles as well since he plays a lot of sports. So we did have to pay for those. He looks so cute in the glasses and he thinks the rec specs are awesome!

Boating pictures

I posted a while back about our boating trip on Mitch's birthday, I got the pictures from Jess and thought I would show you the wake boarding boys and the kids on the tube! Thanks to Jess for the pictures and Tyler for helping Jake with his first attempt at wake boarding and thanks to Kirk and Julie for taking us boating! What a fun day!

Mariachi Band

Mitch changed his facebook picture to this. I had to post it so you all could see it! He also added a Peruvian flag and an Alpaca even though they don't have mariachi bands in Peru. What a funny kid!

NINETEEN!!!

Well it happened. Mitch turned 19! I can't believe how fast this summer is going by. We went boating with the Jenkins in the morning and Mitchell had fun wakeboarding, Jacob even gave it a try. Jess took some cool pictures I will post when she gets them to me. Then we let him open his presents. He wanted O Brother Where Art Thou, his favorite movie, and then he got tickets to go see his favorite band, Rush, the week before he leaves in August. His goofy siblings bought him toys from the The Last Airbender movie and they had fun acting like little kids again!
That night he went with Maddi and Thomas and Tanner and saw that movie while we were at Jacob's baseball game. I never thought that 19 years could go by so quickly. As we sit at Jacobs Little League games it seems like only last summer it was Mitchell out there playing.
Mitch is the best kid and we are so lucky to have a son like him! Every one tells me how rotten teenagers can be but he has been quite the opposite.It is hard to get mad at him when he is always making you laugh. He doesn't really like cake so he always picks something different each year. This year he opted for an ice cream cake and loved it.

This little piggy

Grandma and Grandpa sent Jacob a piggy nose from the fair in San Diego. He thought it was so funny he tried to wear it, along with his sombrero, to church Sunday! What a funny kid! Thanks for the nose Grandma and Grandpa!

First Place!!!

Jacob's team finished their first tournament tonight. They were undefeated and took first place in the tournament and brought home big trophies. They played tonight on the field where the Sandlot was filmed. It was the championship game and we 10 runned them (mercy rule). They actually did that to all but one team and that team they beat by 9.
Jacob has had so much fun and the coaches have been great with him, he has learned a lot! What a fun summer!
Way to go South Davis Allstars!!!!

Family 5K -2

We woke up bright and early this morning to run the fundraiser 5K for girls camp. Mitch decided last night that he was way too tired to do it and Jacob has double header baseball tonight so we let them sleep in. It was really fun ( now that it is over)! Thomas had a goal to beat his dad and he didn't just beat him, he stomped on him too! Thomas finished 4th overall and won a t shirt and beat his dad by 2 minutes. I was just glad to finish it! But it sure beats this day last year when I was coming home from the hospital!
