Kael hanging out with his best pal. He has decided that he does not like to sleep so he spends many hours awake. I didn't know it was possible for a little feller to stay awake so long~

Mr. VJH
For those of you not from Vernal, VJH stands for Vernal Junior High. (It sort of surprised me when someone asked what that was)
Kiley decided to compete in the Mr. VJH competition and really enjoyed doing it. His escort was Taylor Henline and he liked the chance to get to know her better too. (He had been too shy to actually talk to her before asking her to escort him but has wanted to talk to her all year)
He created shirts for himself and his escort and they decided to have their names and their basketball jersey numbers on the back of them. (She plays too) Go 5 and 10!!!
He was escorted in and then they had to do a dance that they created.
He had to recite a nursery rhyme in his PJ's (he chose Little Miss Muffet) while holding his favorite stuffed animal.
His talent was juggling set to "Out of Control" and he did very well. He then invited a teacher (judge) up to participate and both teachers added humor to the routine for him.
They had to do 2 assemblies as the auditorium is not big enough for all of the students. Both assemblies had different teacher judges so the outcomes were a little different.
At the end of his talent in the second assembly he presented Taylor with a dozen roses (that he paid for himself) and thanked her for being his escort. (What a gentleman!) As the judges tallied their votes the contestants did a dance choreographed to "Dancing Queen" and they all wore a tiara. It was priceless and had great humor! (Kiley added his back hand springs too)
Kiley won 1st runner up on the second assembly. No more early morning practices and now all is said and done but he seemed to have had a great time! Good job Kiley for being willing to put yourself out there and make memories you will never get a chance to do again!

Lunch with grandma
Kim's family is able to get together every Wednesday and have a family lunch for those that can attend. One person is picked to choose the menu each week and then everyone brings something from the menu to eat. (we usually luck out and get something very easy) Typically there is a main course, side, salad, rolls, vegetable and of course dessert. They are a family of amazing cooks so the homemade meals are always a treat. Wednesday Angie got to pick the menu since it was her birthday meal! (Happy Birthday Angie and Debbie too! Earl's is coming up quickly) We had Earl's wonderful fried chicken (no one does it better) mashed potatoes and gravy, homemade rolls, green beans, green salad and chocolate pudding cake with homemade ice cream. YUM YUM!! Makes your mouth water doesn't it?
Kael, Jagger and Sierra are lucky enough to get to attend the meal. After grandma Jeanne was finished eating Sierra wanted to hold Kael so she helped her out and this picture is the very cute outcome!
Until next Wednesday.....

Skating Fun
Got to go ice skating with some family members and friends. It was lots of fun to see everyone and visit.
Kael got to try out his warm suit from grandma and Kiersten was lots of help with Coy on the ice.
Thank you so much to Teri for inviting us!!

Great sports day!
Kiersten participated in his last home (and season) swim meet today. He did the medley, 50 free and 100 free. He broke his personal best time on the medley and then broke it again in the 50 free. He was pretty excited. Then along came the 100 free and he broke that personal record too. He is thrilled and said it was a "great" day! Not to mention he is loving his sleep now that morning practices are over. No more rise and shine at 5am for him~ He keeps telling me he can tell that life will be so much easier now!
Kiley played basketball in Roosevelt. (His dad and Kael went and enjoyed the game too) He reported that he had a great game. He had a free throw, 3 pointer and a lay up. He said the Roosevelt team was terrible but they did make a small comeback in the 2nd half. He got new shoes the other night as his previous ones had ripped and were hurting his knees. He informed me this morning that he now needs a plain black pair to wear on his away games since his new ones are white and would be great for home games. LOL Typical Ki, you are always thinking!
We are so proud of both of you. Keep it up!

Awesome 3 pointer!
Kiley had 2 home games this week. He got to be a starter on Tuesday and had his "career" game high in points. He played hard and looked great while MAKING his free throws.
In Friday's game, he played hard and also made an amazing 3 pointer!! He was thrilled and excited.
Kaylee told me that Kiley must be made out of rubber because when he gets hit hard and crashes to the ground he jumps right back up. He is a great defender and takes some pretty hard hits. I agree. Kiley are you rubber?
