Great Season Rigby 3!!!

 What a beautiful day for a football game.  Believe it or not Bray's regular season of football is coming to an end.  What a great season they had.  They only lost two games!  The boys have all become best of friends, and have really learned to work hard and play as a team.  I cheered so loud at his games that I lost my voice almost every game.  Kudos to Justin he did a wonderful job coaching and balancing work and family. 









 Bray's team ended up being able to play post-season!  There was a three way tie to go into the playoffs.  The three teams played what is called a Kansas City Playoff.  It was intense!  Each team started at the 10 yard line and had the opportunity to score. Two Rigby teams were in the playoffs and one Idaho Falls team.  Well Brayden's team ended up taking 1st place.  Awesome, awesome day!!!  The next week we headed up to Madison for their first playoff game---it was a tough game.  Rigby ended up losing and their season came to an end.  It rained so hard we were all soaking wet.  The boys were all sad to see the season come to an end,  but we were so proud of all they accomplished this season.  I love football and how it has helped Brayden, the boys are all good friends and they have made the transition to Middle School a breeze.  Brayden loves all his football buddies and they will continue to be great friends----until next season!!!

Eastern Idaho State Fair

Since we moved from Blackfoot we have not been regular attenders of the Eastern Idaho State Fair.  The last Saturday of the fair we really had nothing going on so we decided to take the kids down for some Fair, Food, and Fun!  We all really had a good time.  Some of the highlights of the day:  Bulls Eye Burger (hamburger on doughnut)  wow this turned out to be a family favorite, a delicious funnel cake, two entertaining hypnotist shows, a Charley Jenkins concert (so good we bought his CD),  always love the photography building, and last but not least fun day with the family!  Glad we decided to go to the fair this year!

Labor Day Weekend

Justin was harvesting his early spuds in Twin Falls so over Labor Day weekend we decided to tag along with him and make a mini vacation out of it.  We started our weekend by visiting cousin Kit at the Fair and seeing his steer.  Good Job Kit!  We are proud of you and all of your hard work.  We then went to the hotel and had a great time swimming and relaxing in the hot tub.  Justin had to work the next morning so I took the kids to the pool and we swam until check out.  After Justin got back we decided to meet our good friends the Lamoreaux  for lunch at Chili's it was fun seeing them and catching up with.  We had a fun mini-vacation!

Happy 7th Birthday Max!

Is our baby really 7?  Max was really concerned this school year that I would miss him and have a hard time with him being gone all day,  I do miss my little buddy and love the spirit he brings into our home.  I can't believe Max is 7.  Max is almost always happy and a friend to everyone.  He is very social and enjoys making new friends.  Max we love you and the happiness your bring to our family!  Happy 7th Birthday Max!
