August and September 2016

Lets see. School started early August - Tanner is a Junior(16) and Aiden is a 6th grader(11) - Tanner jumped right into Cross country this year and has been having a blast with his good friends - He takes his studies very seriously and enjoys school. Aiden is playing tackle football and flag football - He has practices for tackle 5:00-7:00 and then just plays flag one day a week. We enjoy watching Cousin Caleb(Senior) this year and glad that football still takes up our Friday nights. Travis Jr. will be home from Montana is 9 months and Michael just completed 2 months in Sacramento - What a blessing those missionaries are to our family - The Lord knew just what we needed sending these oh so precious boys to our home and we are so grateful.

OUR FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Parents need to "play offense" - to capitalize on the impressionable years of childhood by instilling in their sons the antecedents of character. Their assignment during two brief decades will be to trasform their boys from immature and flighty youngsters into honest, caring men who will be respectful of women, loyal and faithful in marriage, keepers of commitments, strong and decisive leaders, good workers, and secure. And of course, the ultimate goal for people of faithis to give each child understanding of scripture and a lifelong passion of Jesus Christ. This is, I believe. the most important responsibility for those of us who have been entrusted with the careand Nurturance of children.

Christmas In Elma!!

We left for WA the 13th of December - I barely made it to Seattle to hand the kids over to my Dad and catch a flight to Atlanta where I would join Trav for his company Christmas Party the next day. Trav and I had a fun get away and were able to do a little Christmas shopping. We stayed Thursday, Friday and Saturday and flew back to Seattle Sunday morning where we stayed until January 3rd - We were able to catch a Elma Boys Basketball game. The boys thought it was really cool looking at all the family(uncles & aunts) names on the walls before you entered the Gym doors. Michael and I went and Chatted with Coach Nadau one afternoon. It was so fun spending time with family and friends
