Let the Soccer Games Begin

It is amazing what we find Henry reading at times, including piano music

Nixon loved March Madness this year. Not because of the basketball but because of the deals he got at Wendy's

We watched lots of General Conference together a couple weekends ago

In between sessions we checked out a new local bookstore

Then we got some ice cream

Henry has been enjoying stacking these blocks up

The eclipse wasn't too event worthy here

A pair of ducks hanging out in the neighborhood

Nixon impressed the dentist

Lyza was inducted into the National Junior Honor Society

Pretty yellow rose

Mason got to try goalie at soccer practice

Some of the first blooms

I could tell there was a nice sunset one evening so I got some photos with the drone

The three boys started soccer last weekend. Mason ran hard.

Nixon next to a huge kid on the opposite team

Nixon helped his team out

Here he is getting trampled by that same huge kid

I get to coach Henry's team and I was so proud of him scoring two goals in our first game

It's not easy to get pictures or videos when you are on the field coaching

I took Henry out to dinner at Burger King (his choice) to celebrate

Meanwhile everyone else was enjoying the beautiful weather and eating outside

Nixon helped me do some pressure washing

The kids made resurrection rolls, even if it was after Easter

I did a local hike this last week for a young men's activity and we hiked back with the sun setting and a view of the city lights

Kim got to have lunch at school with Henry

Henry's eye (the light was catching it just right one afternoon when he was distracting me from working)

There was a STEM night this last week that we attended. Henry and I learned how to code a robot.

Nixon and some classmates were in charge of this activity (a balloon on a string that travels as the air escapes)

I love finding Henry reading

Kim took the boys swimming on Friday for their day off

Look at that jump

Kim and I attended our ward temple night on Friday

There was more soccer yesterday. Mason worked really hard and got lots of kicks on the ball.

He has always had a very straight leg when he kicks ;)

Nixon got his first goal of the season

Mason and I went on a date last night for froyo

Kim and Lyza both got a spiritual high yesterday as they each attended a meeting with Elder Gong of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.

Here is a picture of the youth meeting that Lyza attended. Can you see Elder Gong? Can you see Lyza?

Here is the answer key if you had a hard time

And there were even more youth on the stage

Have a great week!
