FOOTBALL

Hunter is playing football for Fremont Falcons. Last night was there first game. They won huge against Taylor. Nice. I think there biggest rival is Shepherd, so we will see how our season goes. One thing though, when your son is wearing a big white helmet, and the same jersey as everyone else, it is hard to find them on the field. Yes, I know they are wearing numbers, but still, it is hard to pick them out. Here are some pictures. He is #90. One more thing, my little boys were running ALL over the bleachers having a grand time. Well, some girls said hi to them, and asked

Bracken if he was Hunter's little brother. Of course Bracken gets the cutest toothless grin and says yes. Then he comes to tell me. Oh, and the girls were wearing Hunter's number on their cheeks. What's that about?! When we told Hunter the story after the game he just gets this funny embarrassed smile and says he doesn't even know about it, or who it could be...hmmm.

looking so cool, knowing that I'm taking his picture, but not wanting to acknowledge it to anyone

final score!

Larson family campout

My brother Sean organized our first ever Larson Family Campout. We had such a great time, and the weather was gorgeous. Just what we needed, getting out of the heat. We played this fun

new game called Bolf. We brought up old bowling balls, and the brothers marked off a course. They dug a hole for the size of the bowling ball, and you see how many tries you can get your ball in the hole...like golf. It was fun.

Getting ready to launch my ball.

Just look at this cute boy of mine.


Bracken was digging holes almost the entire time. He had a great time.

Birthday--14

This is some of the gang at 5:30 AM! for Birthday breakfast. Biscuits, eggs, bacon, fresh pineapple. Hunter turned 14. Wow! We've had some pretty funny conversations about the Saturday night dances. Rules, regulations, demonstartions, and know how by his older sisters.

Hunter asked if I would make chololate chip cookies to share with his seminary class. So, I couldn't resist taking my camera and catching a few of the gang heading over for class. Then as an added bonus, his Dad took him Krispey Kreme donuts. The class is loving his parents!

First day of School--2010

The first day of school has come and gone, and I can't believe we are a week in already. Everyone's classes are going great. Thanks to our children we are up by 5:50 AM!! So we can
gather for scriptures and prayer before everyone leaves. Yes, its way early for me. Kinsie has changed to AM EVIT (hair school) and leaves at 6:10 AM and Hunter is playing on the Freshman football team which practices at 6:30. Thanks to Kinsie for taking Hunter in the mornings on her way to school.

Bracken--2nd grade, recently lost his 2 front teeth.

Ashleigh--6th grade...TOP of the Hill

I love pictures like this :)

Hunter--Freshman

Kinsie was running a little late on the 1st day so she wouldn't let me take her picture. Here she is getting into the jeep to go to EVIT.
Here is her 2nd day of school picture--Senior!!

New Quilt

So, this is the pattern for my next quilt.

Here is a sample of the fabric I will be using. It is called "Bliss" The yardage should be available in 2 weeks. Can't wait!

Empty Spaces

It is so good to have a full house again! Hunter was gone to the Jamboree from the 16th of July til August 5th. Then Stacie and Kinsie made a quick end of summer trip to California, Aug. 1st-4th. It felt so empty...when we just had the 3 youngest. Less food purchased, eaten, and fixed. Less laundry worn, washed, and folded. Less late-nighters (except for Davis). Lots of laughing, easy entertaining, and quick cleaning. (the younger ones really can clean )
