So as to not be disowned by my sweet sister, Kristal, I am now--hereby--officially...blogging! Can't promise it will be regular and can't promise is will be exciting, but I am gonna try :) Paula has been teaching alot of piano lessons and just about at the end of apple orders for the season. I'm also working on helping Jamison apply for scholarships and send in highlight video to college coaches. This week is Jamison's last regular season football game before playoffs. His team is undefeated and the region champs this year. State playoffs start next week! We have had so much fun with him and his friends from the football team. We're really gonna miss those Friday night lights:( The coach from Southern Virginia University called him the other day and wants him to send some game tapes and a highlight video. He's talking to him about playing for them, but he wants him to play the fall season and a spring season before he goes on his mission and he's not sure if he wants to wait that long. We're sending tapes to some colleges in Utah and a few others. He's also been talking to the assistant baseball coach as BYU, so we'll see where that takes us. Quinn is loving Jr. High and his Jr. High soccer team is starting their playoffs today. Go South Valley! He also played football this season and really likes it. I know...weird...Quinn playing football! We've gotta put some meat on his bones before high school :) Bet and Brian are doing good. Both are working new jobs and attending temple prep classes in their ward. Don't know what their plans are for sure, but we're proud of the positive steps they are both taking. Trace is working too much, as usual, and enjoying serving in the Young Men's program with Jamers. Jake (the spoiled, white dog) is lovin' his life which consists mostly of eating, sleeping and wrestling with the boys. It's good to be a dog :)
