K.J. and his best buddy Tye at the BYU game in
Colorado Springs! They had a great time!
Yes K.J. it is ok to like Nebraska and BYU!

Kevin and I are so proud of our kids! They have both started the year off on honor roll! They have great friends and are having a great time in school!
K.J. had a crazy start to the year. His first day of football practice (which was the first day of school), he took his first ride in an ambulance. He had a minor back injury, but was back the next day! He played offensive and defensive line this season and did awesome. The Milliken Mustangs had a great year and won the division championship!
Rhiannon is still doing great with gymnastics!! She has moved up to an Optional one. She is very excited. She is also playing clarinet and doing marvelous. Can't wait to hear the Christmas program!
Being a substitute teacher is such a blessing! I am able to go and work with the kids during the day and be home with mine when they get home from school. I have also recently become certified and am coaching gymnastics. I am an assistant coach at the Gym where Rhiannon trains. It is a great way to be involved in what Rhiannon loves and I really enjoy it!
Kevin is still awesome! He recently received a permanent position and the company he was contracting with. What a blessing! He is such a great provider. I am so grateful for him. He will be coaching K.J.'s baseball team this year and is still a Scout leader. When he is not doing that, he is busy at home upgrading and yes, still working on the basement.
