day one hundred fifty six

LOOK ABS!!! I'M ALIVE! Back to the grind. I've been AWOL but not to worry I'm back in the picture-a-day game!  Here is Taylor's last volleyball game. Don't you just love the warrior paint? They are looking tooooo fierce!

Taylor serving with impeccable form!

Waiting for the other team to serve. Volleyball has been so much fun to watch this season!

Here is Taylor's favorite coach. Rachel has been the most supportive coach ever! The first time Taylor got a serve over the net she jumped up and almost ran on the court she was so excited!

day one hundred twenty eight

Today was mayhem and I mean MAYHEM. We have to accomplish today... prom hike for Pace, concert for Taylor, camp certification for Bailey, volleyball game for Taylor, soccer game for Jacki, and prom tonight. Did I mention Jade is out of town at a WORCS race? Well let me mention it then. Great balls of fire. Ok, here is my prime seat at Artemus Ham Hall listening to Taylor's choir perform. They sound good in the gym at Del Webb but to listen to them with the acoustics of this amazing venue was off the charts. I cannot believe they are a middle school choir!

Taylor and Livy after the concert.

Here is me and my little twin. I would pay a lot of money to trade eyes with her. I love her eyes.

Serene ward concert choir representation!

As soon as we were done at UNLV we hustled on over to Taylor's volleyball game. She is getting really good and is getting her serves over the net. Of course she left her shoes home so she currently has on the coaches shoes while the coach sits on the bench in her socks!

In between the volleyball game and this next picture Jacki had a soccer game that I missed, so sorry Jack no pictures of your soccer skills today. Here Bailey, Taylor, Jacki and Johnny are all paying homage to Pace who is looking particularly handsome in his prom attire. He is actually going to the prom and not playing cards tonight.

On his way to Bryenna's house to pick her up!

Pace brought Bryenna back home to wait for the other kids to show up. We practiced a few 80's poses while we waited. Pace looks so handsome and Bryenna looked so gorgeous I couldn't take it!

 Here they all decided to line up for an 80's prom pose. It looks more like choo choo train to me.

We headed up to the Healing Gardens at St. Rose for prom pictures. Here are the boys being ding bats, nothing out of the ordinary.

Cutest couple at the prom tonight. I guarantee it!

Here are all the couples lined up for the bridge shot. Oh and the gay couple in the middle... that's just Denzyl and Gage, no need to worry.

More shots by the professional photographer (me).

Looking all abstractly at some made up object in the sky

Me and my PayPay. Jade made me almost cry here at the photo shoot taunting me that I only had 2 more years left till he leaves on his mission.

It got a little rainy so my ever gentleman Pace walked her out with an umbrella.

When we rolled back in the subdivision after taking pictures we looked down the street and wondered what idiot parents would let their children climb all over a construction garbage dumpster. It turns out it was Bailey, Jacki and Johnny. Apparently Jade was the idiot parent!

Now they are in the dog house eating pizza. 

So Jade decided to lure Jessi over with a slice of pizza so she would go in the dog house with both Bailey and Johnny. Let me be the first to tell you there isn't enough room in there for them all. Hence why Jade did that I suppose.

I got a fire pit for the night to light up in my new swag backyard. Here is Jade in his natural habitat being a pyro. Ask him one day about starting Yosemite National Park on fire when he was younger.

We had to make a prom feast of course for them to eat

They stayed awake playing cards, sitting by the fire and laughing till about 1:30 in the morning. I, as the dutiful chaperone, was sound asleep. Chaperoning past 10:00 p.m.... ain't nobody got time for that.

And last but certainly not least here is our very own Eli Tomac! Here he is airborne and looking so fabulous! WORCS series round 7.

day one hundred twenty six

Picture day at volleyball practice this evening. This team has turned out to be the cutest most supportive kind group of girls imaginable. We won the volleyball team lottery.

How cool is this picture!!! One of the coaches took this and it turned out fabulous.

day one hundred twenty one

It has been raining like crazy lately!! Today Jacki's soccer game got cancelled because the rain. She was NOT happy about this turn of events.

Rainy days are conducive to baking and loafing around on the couch (Jacki is still mad though).

But volleyball isn't cancelled! Taylor did so very excellent today. She got two serves over the net! So proud of her!

She just keeps improving with every game. It is so fun to watch her play!

Jacki babysat Lyla tonight. She is an excellent babysitter! 

After the game Pace, Bailey, Taylor and I got to go to the stake center and listen to Jeffery R. Holland and president Robbins speak. They were both amazing and we left motivated having felt the spirit.

day one hundred seven

Saturday Sport Day! Volleyball first for Taylor and the Warriors. Isn't she just so cute?

Team huddle

Warr-iors (clap, clap, clap) Warr-iors (clap, clap, clap)  Serve it up Taylor!

On to the soccer game. Jacki is an animal this year on the soccer field! Jade has even told her to stop playing football (taking people out) and get to playing soccer. Who knew that day would come.

Soccer Swag

And last but certainly not least we have our motocross sporting event that Jade is participating in, in Hurricane UT. The QR wouldn't scan on his picture so I had to take a picture of his picture. Not the exact quality I wanted but oh well. Here is WORCS race round 6...

day ninety nine

I've been taking Taylor to her volley ball practices. I love watching her play. She's never played before and she's improving like crazy!

And Jacki who had a birds eye view of Taylor practicing...

See how Taylor is playing in socks with no shoes? That right there is exhibit A of why we go through hundreds of socks a year!
