Alta White vs West

OH YEAH IT'S ON!!! This is Will's game face! Pretty mean huh??!! I wouldn't want to be face to face with THAT- would you?

This is the team right before the game doing a hitting drill to get all psyched for the game!

This is the kids coming onto the field after the half- Will is in the shot on the left side running in! They really love doing this and it is fun to watch. This was a tough game for them. The guys on the other team were HUGE and they came to FIGHT, but we fought back and WON!!

Fall is almost here!!!!

I had to change my page a bit because I can feel fall in the air!! I was home doing some cleaning this week and part of that was cleaning out our car. While I was finishing up I happened to walk by our many containers of "deco" in the garage. I couldn't help but grab the fall items and get them on the porch. I LOVE this time of year!! I love football season, the chill in the air and being able to leave the windows open at night, the smell of burning leaves and the way the mountains look when the leaves begin to change colors. It's a wonderful time of year! I know it's not technically "fall" yet, but it can't come quickly enough for me!! Only thing left for me to do is to buy my pumpkins and corn stalks!!

HAPPY (coming) FALL Y'ALL!!

P.S.- I'll take a photo of the porch later!

a REAL McCain commercial!!!

Alta Black vs Copper Hills!

It was definately an exiting game here! The
other team had some real big boys but they
could not handle us!! The boys played really
well! In this picture Carter is just behind the
center. He plays center and guard on the
offense, and then also plays defensive tackle.
Here is coach Hill giving the boys a bit of a pep talk.
Carter is the player on the far left- you can
never get these boys too amped up! They took this
game from the start and never let up!
Here is a picture of Papa giving Carter a little praise!
I think he enjoyed the game too! This team is
quite an improvement over all the others he's
played with. This game ended up being a blowout
with a 34-0 win!! You go Carter keep it coming!!
GO ALTA BLACK!!

Alta White vs Cottonwood Colts!

Well it was another fun filled Saturday at Fields
in Sandy and West Jordan! Will was the first one
up to bat on the home field against the cottonwood
Colts. It was an exiting game to watch- we scored
pretty fast and it was 14-0 but then it got a
little tense there in the third quarter but...
the boys rallied together and started to play
their game again! Cottonwood had scored on us
twice and the game was tied, but when they got
into it again they brought their defense and
were fighting!
Here is a picture of Will (the one squatting) on
the dirty bird defense! They did a great job and
held Cottonwood and they didn't score again
but we did!!! We won the game 21-14!! Woo
hoo!!
This is a shot of Will after his game- he did a
great job!! GO ALTA WHITE!!!

Enjoying school so far...

It is still hard for me to believe that Brianne
is in first grade, but she is enjoying it quite a
bit! I have been very proud of her! Here is a
shot of her with some of her first couple art
projects!

I was able to go to the elementary back to school
night this past week and in Will's class I walked
into the classroom and his teacher had all the kids
make these "faces" of themselves and had them all
bring a sweatshirt to put on the back of their chairs
so when I walked in it looked like all the kids were
there! It was so cute!! And I think Will's face looks
just like him don't you?!

Our Labor Day Weekend

On Labor Day weekend we were happy to have
my parents and my two sisters Heather and Lisa
staying with us. My Dad's Mom, my grandma,
passed away the Tuesday before and so they all
came so we could all attend the funeral. It was
a beautiful funeral- probably the neatest I have
ever attended. Even though the reason for their
visit wasn't the best- we still had a lot of fun having
them all stay with us. It was Heather's first time
to my home here and I was thrilled for her to see it!
This is a picture of the kids with grandma Panko
and Pa Boo before they left on labor Day.

Here is a picture of my cute sisters with my Dad!

This was a funny moment! Heather decided to
try on Will's helmet and it FIT!! Crazy! Will's
head is big! And because of the funeral that Sat.
I wasn't able to get pictures of the boys games
but they both won!! Go Alta!!
