Angelman Walk

Angelman Walk 2012-  This is our team "Cruisin with Clint and Cole".  Thanks so much for everyone who came and supported us again!!  It truely is amazing to see how many people take time out of there busy sat just to come and let you know they care. I should name everyone there but I will just do families - My mom and sisters Angie and Cindy and their kids where there., Nates dad and Jill.  Nates sister Kim with Heather and Courtney and their families, Miriam and Ellie, Rachel, Naomis family, My Aunt Mira and Steph and her kids, My Cousins Kami, Jane, Chad, and Dakota with all their kids. My aunt Maxine and Kristen from Texas. (Sorry if I missed someone) I saw this saying on a shirt on sat.  "Sometimes even Angels need help to fly"  I loved it, I was just thinking how true it was and how much help Clint and Cole get from everyone
 Top photo is my and my two sisters and my cousin Kristen who was visiting form Texas.  Then Clint and Cole and Angies twins Kolby and Kyler.   Then Naomi's cute family, Alyssan and BriKayla helping Clint get to the finish line (Alyssa has this huge connections with them she is so great and I love how helpful she always is, and then a group of walkers.
This is my favorite picture of the day, 1 reason is because it is the finish line and they both walked a lot better this year and it is so great to see them get there, mostly though because of Shay in the background.  I just love how supportive Wyatt and Shay are of their brothers.  They are not jealous of the attention they get or that we are doing so many things for them, They are their biggest cheerleaders and are so proud of them  They are so kind to them and loving It just makes my heart smile to see them be so wonderful!  After the walk they had lunch for everyone and then a raffle with tons of great prizes thanks to everyone who brought food and stuff for the raffle.  What a great day!  The Utah walk raised around $24,000 for the Angelman foundation - wow!!

Texas Roadhouse

Last night was our Texas Roadhouse fundraiser for the Angelman Foundation.  I wanted to Thank everyone who came!!   I don't know why I am always surprised at the number of people who support us, but every time we ask for help we are overwhelmed with how many people care. It was so fun to see so many of our family, friends, coworkers, school teachers, bus drivers and ward members their -WOW- We just ended up hanging out there most of the night visiting with everyone it was great. I will update later on how much money was earned for the Angelman Foundation.

Dance Review



Shay had her dance review this weekend.  Yeah we are finally done with dance for the year.  About half way through the year Shay really wanted to quit but I would not let her so every week was the same argument of why we have to go again.  I just love to watch her dance when she is dancing she is smiling and happy but the thoughts of going every week take the fun out of it for her.  So this may be the last year we do dance- who knows we change our minds often!  The day of the review was so fun to sit and do her hair and makeup and talk to her.  It is such a reminder she is not a little girl anymore! oh my baby girl is growing up!  One funny costume she made the night of the review.  She says "Mom I really wish I  like to dance then tonight would be fun".  Another funny story so they have to be there 1 hour before to warm up and be with their teacher.  So I leave her backstage and go and wait.  Well right before show time I decide to go check on her, and I go back there and she has lipstick all over her white leotard and all over her face and teeth.  I was like Shay what happened she goes well you said I could put on more whenever I wanted.  I was able to wash it out of her leo and off her face, but her lips were so bright you could definitely see them.  Oh she is so funny.

 Ada and Shay after the review.  They were so excited they got flowers from their moms and medals from their teachers.



This is Shays cute class- and then her dance review photos.  I loved them they turned out so cute!

Soccer

I love Spring- it is time to finally get out of the house and start playing outside.  Spring also means Soccer.  Wyatt playing again this year.  He is having pretty fun, even though his team is struggling a little this year it is still fun to go and watch him play.  Last week he played goalie and it was great to see him diving and trying his hardest to stop the ball.
