Quincy turns 6!

I can't believe my Kiki is 6! He loves life and is so enthusiastic and passionate about it. He is also VERY persistent about everything....I realize that can be a positive trait, but I am still trying to figure that one out! He loves his brothers and friends. He loves ninjas and karate. He is also known for being the best back scratcher in the house!

He wanted a Ninjago cake so I bought a plain one and put Ninjago figures on top.
He also loves to be a spy. Thanks to everyone for all of his wonderful gifts! He is a lucky boy.

We love you Kiki. You are a special little boy!

Quincy's Hint

Recently, this is how we know when we are in trouble with Quincy...
It's hanging on his door with our names crossed out. At least then we are prepared for the "wrath" of Quincy.
Love that kid!

Payson Utah Temple Site

How exciting are these plans, right? We are thrilled about the Payson Utah Temple groundbreaking happening next month! So tonight for FHE, we headed to the temple site.
The site is HUGE and, until, now, has been a wheat field. The owner of the land donated their wheat field to the Church.
Here is our FHE "lesson". Allen is telling the story of how this temple site was chosen. (Allen's secretary at the Orem Institute lives right across the street and saw some of the story happening) They loved it...hearing about President Monson and the First Presidency visiting and knowing this was the place.
We found some wheat!

We can't even describe how thrilled we are. We can't wait to start attending our new temple. It will be the temple that we take Miles to in 4 years to start doing baptisms for the dead. It is sacred ground already and you can feel it. How thankful we are to have temples on the earth, the Lord's House.

Andrea and Guy's Wedding

Allen's cousin Andrea got married on Saturday....don't think she can forget her anniversary....9/10/11.
How cute are they?

In front of the Provo Temple
Our handsome boys!
Random Shot, but I love it!
Congrats Andrea and Guy! We are so very happy for you!

Baseball Season Starts

Miles is playing fall baseball this year. He is LOVING it! He plays for the Maple Mountain Warriors. Double headers on Saturdays for us. Sure love to watch him play!
It's nice. they are still young enough that the coaches don't have them locked in a position. Miles has been catching, pitching, and playing 1st base mainly.



GOOOOOO WARRIORS!!

Quincy Starts Kindergarten

Ahhhh....our little ninja...is he ready for Kindergarten??
Oh YES, he is ready. At least he took off the mask...we'll have to deal with the Bruce Lee tee (notice the t shirt "he" is wearing in the picture)
Here is his "About Me" sheet....don't worry Grandmas and Grandpas...I am sure it will make it to his wall so you can see it closer!
Porter is going to miss him...A LOT
Porter was feeling left out!
Quincy and his buddy Kyle. They are in the same class.
THE THREE STOOGES! Quincy gets to be with his 2 best buddies...good luck to his teacher! LOL

We love you Quincy! Congrats on your first day of Kindergarten. You are such a big boy!
