It's almost HALLOWEEN!

It's almost HALLOWEEN!

Kodi's going to be a BYU cheerleader. We found her a cheerleader outfit at the BYU bookstore and she's been dressing up the for the past month. She loves to go to the BYU campus for ice cream at the creamery or to go bowling. We took her there a few years ago to get a book for one of Devin's classes and directly across from the bookstore is a large open area that the dance class students use to practice. She was so captivated with their dancing that we had to stand and watch them for nearly an hour. Since then, we have been back a few different times and have again (coincidentally) seen dancers. The last time we went, there was a ballroom dancing banquet going on, and we were watching from outside the room when some of the dancers invited us in to come in and observe. Kodi was in heaven. She wants to go to BYU when she grows up; mainly because she thinks all they do there is dance, cheer and play football. She calls her pom-pom's "who-who-rahs" which I think is really cute. Go BYU!!! "Give me a B, Give me a Y, Give me a U" - sometimes she even gets the letters in the correct order.
I am now working at a company in American Fork called Bidsync as a Trainer, and Devin is working to finish up 4 of his last 7 classes with UVU and working at Cardwell in Midvale. We're living in Spanish Fork and hoping to move a little further north in the near future.

More then a year later...

It's been a long time since I we have updated our Blog! I am committing to do better because Kodi loves to see the blogs of our families and friends.

Kodi is in Gymnastics, we go every Thursday. She LOVES it. Each day when she wakes up she asks us, "Is it Sursday yet?" She got a trophy for participating this past Spring and she carried it around for the first week showing everyone. I finally talked her into retiring the trophy to the bookshelf so that it wouldn't get broken.

She is such a special girl. Devin and I took her swimming to the Spanish Fork pool a few Saturdays ago, and she had a blast. I have been able to take her back a couple times since then too. She is a dare devil, and has no fear. She always asks if she can jump off the diving board, she doesn't understand she can't swim.

Summer Time

This summer has been a crazy one at our home. We started it off with a fun trip to Disneyland, and had a wonderful time. Kodi loved it, and we loved being with her. It was a great experience to take her and watch her reaction and imagination as we saw the different Disney Princesses and other characters, she truly believed they were real. She wasn't shy, and walked right up to each one and introduced herself - calling them by name. We went to the beach, or the "big water" as Kodi calls it. That too was fun, although it was cold, and she was a little scared to get in by herself, she made Devin hold her and pack her out into the ocean. Devin's in school, and finishing up his last summer class getting ready for another Check Ride to obtain additional ratings for his pilot license. Amy recently had surgery on her foot, and Devin has been holding down all of the "mom" responsibilites. It has been nice to have him helping so much around the house. We are hoping for some weekend camping trips before fall comes.
