Cross Country

Conner had an awesome year in Cross Country. As a freshman he made the varsity team as their # 3 runner. He placed in the top 25 in every regular meet. He ran his personal best at sectionals with a time of 18:38, improving every meet. Way to go Conner!

Conner was only able to run in one meet before he had surgery to remove a swollen lymph node. It put him out of competition for 3 weeks. We found out his lymph node was benign and was so grateful. He had to earn his spot back on varsity and was able to the first meet back.

Conner had a blast with the kids on his team. He loves them all!

So proud of my boy!

Grandma & Grandpa came to watch CT, he didn't disappoint.

Conner was voted Homecoming Freshman Attendant and rode in the Homecoming Parade.

Conner got his best time at sectionals.

Conner came in 29th, so he wasn't in the top 25 to qualify for state. However his team overall qualified so he ran for his team.

Conner's state meet at Cave Creek Golf Course. It was an extremely tough course with lots fo hills. He did and awesome job and was so proud of him!

Conner had a great season and look forward to the next few years of cross country.

Love you bud!

Kaitlyn's 7th Grade Volleyball

Kaitlyn had a great year playing for her 7th grade volleyball team. Their team went undefeated and won the 7th grade championship. Kaitlyn played outside hitter and it was so fun to watch her learn and grow. She did awesome!

Grandma & Grandpa Palmer came down to watch her play. Thanks for your support!

7th grade Champions! Way to go girls!

Jacob's football season

Jacob played his first year of little league football. He was so excited and worked really hard.

Jacob was so excited when he was finally able to get his helmet and pads.

Jacob would wear his jersey every friday to school to show his support for his team which played on Saturdays.

Brauk is hoping to follow in Jacob's footsteps soon.

The best part about playing football was his dad helping to coach. Jacob loves his dad and he got to spend alot of time with him.

Jacob learned alot about football and made a big contribution to his team.

At one of the high school games the little league boys got to run out onto the field with the high school team. Jake was in heaven, especially when his idol #5 Josh Palmer gave him a high five as they ran out together. Good times for the brothers!

Hailey 7th Birthday

For Hailey's birthday I took her to lunch at sonic. We got our favorite orange cream slushies. We had to take a few pics to send to Mike so he would know what he was missing out on.

Hailey sent her dad a big creamy kiss!

Hailey has had the same blanket that her Aunt Carly made for her when she was a baby. Because it is 7 years old it has lost its softness. She kept stealing Kaitlyn's "soft" blanket so we decided it was time to get her a new "soft" blanket. She loves it. We put her baby blanket in my cedar chest so she will always have it.

Happy Birthday Beautiful Girl! We love you!

Hailey got some money from her Grandparents and wanted to buy something with it. We took her to Walmart and found Si and a scooter. She couldn't buy Si so she settled for a scooter. We love Si!
