Linc's Getting Ready for Braces

 I couldn't not take pictures of Lincoln getting his impressions for braces.  Kids are total entertainment.

Palmer Win's Sophomore Vice President

 Palmer ran for Sophomore Vice President of West Forsyth High School (after a lot of begging from his mom) and won!  He had a really good experience with the election and lots of people told him they voted for him. I'm so excited for him to have this experience next year!

McKay 3rd Grade Carnival

 McKay goes to such a great school!  The third grade teachers had a carnival to do something fun to kick off the Georgia Milestones tests.  McKay told me that he needed to wear something nice since there was going to be a Photo Booth.  I love that he was so into it :)

 They had tickets and could go and play games and have treats.  It was such a good time!

 I got to come and help with the Photo Booth.

 He has had the best class this year.  We love his teacher Ms. Wade and all these fun kids!

April Fools Day with the Elders

 We love our missionaries and were pretty excited to get them for dinner on April Fools Day.  We filled their cups with red Jell-O and the rest of our cups with fruit punch.  They were so confused on why their juice wouldn't come out.  Our boys thought it was pretty great :). It was Elder "Q"'s first day in the mission field, which made it that much better. 

 Elder Hart and Palmer are pretty great friends. 

I wish this picture wasn't so blurry.  It was a fun night. 

First Hawks Game

 All of our boys had amazing basketball seasons.  Lincoln, Hunter and McKay (all coached by Josh) all had undefeated seasons and Lincoln and Hunter also won the "A" bracket tournament.  Palmer's high school team won region.  To celebrate we took the boys to a Hawks game.  When we lived in Utah we went to Jazz games all of the time, but this was our first Hawks game (and we have been here almost 5 years...)

 We don't go to Atlanta too much, so this was fun.

Watching the players warm up

 Our seats were really high up, but one of the ushers directed us to this guy and he upgraded us to awesome seats and gave all of the boys basketballs.  It was so much fun!

 We really loved our experience at our first Hawks game!  They won and we all love Trey Young now!

Blue and Gold Banquet 2019

Our ward always does such a good job on Blue and Gold.  This year they did a Medieval theme.  The food was all eaten with hands, which I am pretty sure the boys loved.

 The boys were all knighted first.

 And given a seriously awesome wooden sword (McKay's brothers were jealous).  

 There were lots of sword fights (boy heaven). 

 The best part of the night was that they hired a fencing team to come and teach the kids how to fence.  McKay was really good at it!

 McKay is determined to take up fencing now!

 The pros showing the boys how it's done.

McKay Chief Leader

 McKay was nominated to be Chief Leader (Student of the quarter) for his class.  His teacher this year has just loved him and tells me all of the good things he does all of the time.  

 We are so proud of this good kid!

Loving his side eye here :)

 We love our little Chief Leader!
