Panguitch Ice Breaker

Last Friday and Saturday, we went to Panguitch for a baseball tournament. Taylor got to pictch.
He also plays first base. He is my little south paw lefty! (OK he is not little any more)


Friday was good, but Saturday was cold so we kept wrapped up in our warm blankets.

Whitney having a temper tantrum. She was ticked I kept taking pictures of her while she was mad.
One of these players is not like the others.....

From Livestock to Broadway

We have been really busy this past week. Taylor played in three baseball games, plus Taylor and Emily had animals in the Dixie Junior Livestock Show, Emily had a musical theatre recital and the rehearsals that go along with it, and I had classes and one final during this crazy time and two finals next week. Whitney was actually the most excited for the livestock show. She was counting down the days until she could go. She is definately her father's child when it comes to animals. She said she would be sad for the lamb after the livestock show because she would "miss the little guy"!
Emily and her lamb Oreo.

This was Emily's first year showing a lamb. (Last year she had a hog) She did so well! Her lamb was so calm. There were a couple of kids with lambs in her group that kept acting up, but Emily had great control the whole time.

Taylor and his un-named hog.

Taylor showed show much improvement over last year in showing his hog. He had so much confidence and the hog minded him so well. We were very proud.

Taylor's hog sold for $500. Emily did not end up selling her lamb because they added a Saturday matinee for her musical theatre recital "Broadway Dreams". Whitney was excited because the lamb is now back. They will take it to another show.

The musical theatre recital was pretty amazing. Emily had a solo in Broadway Baby from the "Follies", she was in the chorus in "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat", and she was one of the orphans in "Annie". After the show we took this picture of Miss Hannigan with all her orphans. Emily is on the left.

Where Did Time Go?

O.K., I am a crappy poster. We have been busy as usual, and April will be a very busy month for us too. School has been going well. I have been a little overwhelmed having two intense classes, but it has been really good. I have enjoyed what I have learned in both classes. I have three tests next week, so we'll see if I'm still alive at the end! I have applied to both Dixie State and Mohave Community College to nursing school, but won't find out anything until probably the end of May; meanwhile, we will just keep our fingers crossed!
Baseball season begins=FINALLY=this month! I am really excited to sit out and kick back and watch Taylor play some baseball!! (Of course this means almost every day I will be gone from at least 9 a.m.-9 p.m. and dinner will consist of hot dogs and nachos) It is a busy time, but I love it! Emily will be busy with extra dance rehearsals preparing for her Musical Theatre recital at the end of the month. Then of course, is the Dixie Junior Livestock show coming up. Emily will be showing a lamb, and Taylor a hog. They will also be down at the farm a lot walking their animals.
Who knows what we will do for our anniversary on the 24th....wait I know, I will just have finished finals, then we will be at the livestock show during the day, and Emily's musical theatre recital at night...how romantic...
