Summer Games 2008

Well another year of Summer Games has come and gone. No Gold this year. The girls did great they where 2-1 but didn't have enought points to get them to the semi-finals. Darn! They played great. The weather was beautiful not to hot and not to cool just right. The morning we left Cache Valley had snow on the foothills and we came back to 80* weather. Great to live in Cache Valley!! Wouldn't change that at all.

The ride down we had my Cousin Liz's daughter Paige and Sadie aren't they cute!!

We did our usual followed Liz or should I say she followed us til the last hour of the drive when she suddenly got a lead foot! I guess Julie was getting nervous about the 4:00 game and she had to register the team still. Our first night in Cedar consists of a fashion and talent show with the girls that stay in the same hotel we do. This is the parade of fashion at the beginning. The four parents are the judges. Kim is the announcer (a.ka. Ryan Secrest) I am Simon and Liz is Randy Jackson and Julie was Paula Abdul. This is Nicole for her talent and fashion Flower (aka Sadie) Had on her best fashion on save the trees. She had grass in her hair to. Megan was the neighborhood nerd.

While we watch the game the kids are busy at the playground. It works great for us there is quite a few kids that all get along great we hotel by them and then they are at the games to play together as well. They are all so darn cute.

We had a great time this year. Liz's van broke down on Thursday night on the way to the opening cermonies. But her awesome husband had it all arranged on Friday morning for the tow truck the garage to fix it and a rental car for the day. What a man! It got us out of a trip to Zion. I don't mind it but the kids just hate to leave there buddies. So on Friday we spent the day laying around and swimming. The kids enjoyed ever minute but Jerry was very bored. Thank you sweetie for letting us stay and play.
