Binky's, Church, and FOOTBALL!

We've had a very eventful end of August, starting with cutting the nipple off of Baylee's Binky so we could ween her off of it. I was told recently by my sister-in-law Corinne that those Binky's they give you in the Hospital give kids buck teeth. We looked in Baylee's mouth and sure enough her teeth were going buck. So I cut off the nipple one night before bed and here she is looking at the Binky trying to figure out what happened to it. It took 2 long nights of crying and no naps for 3 days before Baylee gave up and now will take the replacement Binky that I offered her. So to all of you Binky lovers, make sure you don't give you babies those ugly Hospital Binky's you will eventually regret it like I have.

Also in this month we have had some exciting things happen to a couple members of our family in the church. We are so proud of Connor for earning his Bear and moving on to weblos. Way to go Connor! Warren was called to be the Scout Master in our ward last week, and this week I was put in as 1st Counselor in the Primary! We know that serving the Lord is the only way to go!


Saturday was Connor's first official football game of the season against Woods Cross. Connor couldn't of made us more proud! He was amazing! Connor's team won 5 touchdowns to 1, and of those 5 touchdowns yes our son made 3 of them! It was such a fun day and Connor was so excited and in shock of how good he did. He worked so hard with his team and we are so proud to have him as our son!
Here is Connor after his game with his cousin Kaden, who plays football for Riverton. They were able to watch each other's football games that day, and Kaden was just as excited to win his first game that day also! Way to go Kaden!


Here we all are ( except for grandma Cherie, who is taking the picture) at El Matador celebrating Connor's touchdowns. I had told Connor before his game that if he scored a touchdown we would take him to dinner. Well three touchdowns later, we knew it had to be more than just a Hamburger. He chose to go to a Restaurant in Bountiful. Here's a picture of everyone who saw Connor's football game that day and went and celebrated with us after. Thanks to you all for braving the 100 degree weather that day, it was a scorcher!
