Davis Darts Dominate Syracuse Football

















Wow- I know- LOTS of pictures! Sorry- you'll have to forgive me- didn't wanna take the time to do a slide show instead! Just wanted to show some pics of Drew's football game today against Syracuse. They won 28-14. It was a great game! Cam couldn't come because he had to go to Colby's State Cup semi-final game in Orem (divide & conquer days) & Asi had to work- but both were rooting him on in spirit!! He did awesome in the game- had an exceptionally great tackle in the 4th quarter that just hurt to watch! It was his last game of the season! He enjoyed it & the coaches & the team! But it was a great way to end the season! Jody kept playing around with the camera too- she just might make a terrific photographer one of these days! The girls are good sports to always come to all the games & support their big brothers! They got to play with the cute little puppy pictured that belonged to a friend whose big bro plays on the team too. The picture of the cute little girl with Sadie is her little friend whose name is also Sadie- she is the head coach's little girl! They have had fun playing together at all the games this season! Anyways- great job on a great season Drew! I'm proud of your hard work, your perserverance, and your positive attitude! I look forward to watching you play again next season! Love you bud!!

ReAl -vs- FC Dallas








So- even though we typically date our kids one-on-one, we decided to make an exception this past Saturday for Colby. Reason being- the date was a little more spendy than usual- so we made it a "double parent date" & all 3 of us went! It was so great! It was Real's last regular season game & was played in their new stadium- which is AWESOME by the way!! (Yes- that IS a picture of me holding a huge thing of icecream. What about it?!?) They had a few fireworks they set off during the singing of the national anthem which were cool. The fact that Real won the game 3 to 1 made the night even sweeter! By the way- the pizza we had there was sooo good!! It was a really fun date & I hope Colby knows how much we love him! He's a stud! Always helpful, loving, giving & thoughtful, & still kisses his momma, even in public! What more could you ask for in a son??

Scary Hill '08







Cam & I love the dates we have with our kids! We try to do them often (sometimes schedules get in the way)! However- there is really nothing like that one-on-one time you get to spend with your kids individually! We like to rotate between the kids and between Cam & I so we all get to know each other better! There's the little rules/guidelines involved with the dates: no radio in the car, no phone calls that aren't emergencies, and no negative topics. Just good 'ol fashioned fun together where we enjoy each other's company! Tonight was Jessie & I's date. They all get to choose their date destination. It was a hard choice between Olive Garden & minitature golfing for Jessie. Golfing won since she'd never been before! We chose Cherry Hill- now known as "Scary Hill" right now with their whole Halloween theme- which I personally think is very cute! Jessie thought so as well! Castles all draped in cobwebs, jack-o-lanterns & skeletons & vampires, etc! Very cute! Or shall I say "spooky"? Anyways- it was awesome to be with Jess! It was absolutely heart-warming to spend time laughing with her, smalk talking a little (nothing wrong with a little competiveness ;0), and encouragement!! We cheered each other on & gave each other big high 5's when we did well- which I must admit- we did!!! Granted- I've only been miniature golfing a few times in my life & this was Jess's 1st time- but we ROCKED! It was fun & of course, the night involved Frosty's from Wendy's! I may not be humble when it comes to gloating about how well we did- but I sure am humble when I think for 2 seconds how lucky I am to be blessed with Jessie as a daughter- as well as my other 4 kids! Wow- I love them!!! (Please forgive the not-so-great pics- they're from my Blackberry seeing as how the camera took 1 pic before running out of batteries!! - But at least I did a new post!! Took me long enough, huh?!?!)
