Some high school friends (Terrance and Levar and their dates) 

Kobi and me 

Going to my 10 year high school reunion Chaparral High School Cowboys :) 

Had to do the high school prom pose. 

Update

Just at work again. What is new?
K.C.- School.
Me- Just planning life around the kids. I cleaned my house yesterday. It took forever! I even dusted the blinds. I was aching in the morning :). Tomorrow is my 10 year high school reunion! Chanel and Ryan, I will give details later :). Sorry, you could not come. :(

Kobi- He got a new fish. It some kind of shark. It is small, but wild. He names it "Spike". Our homework time has been going really well. I am happy we have somewhat of a schedule. I hope it helps him to focus more in school. He made the lottery for Jo Mackey Elementary school. I am so happy. I was not happy with his last school. Mostly due to the overcrowdedness. He is a summary of his school:
Programs:
Leadership and Global Communications
Description of Programs:
In 2004, Jo Mackey became the Academy of Leadership and Global Communication. The school’s vision is: “Preparing responsible leaders with strong communication skills to succeed in a global society.” The leadership program is built on the development of positive Character , strong Citizenship , and Communications through technology to ensure that students succeed in a global society.

An emphasis on developing strong communication skills through technology prepares students to interact effectively. Students are exposed to a rigorous academic environment including instruction in the arts, foreign language and technology. Participation in service projects promotes students’ understanding of their responsibility for positive citizenship. Our high expectations of academic development challenge each student to find his or her unique path in the Global Age of Information.Highlights:

Intermediate Computer Lab – for students 3-5

Mackey Broadcast System
Video Conferencing – students interact with business and government leaders

I am very excited about it. It is kind of far, and not in the nicest neighborhood, but I like the school.
Kobi is worried about death right now. He will ask "When are you and Daddy going to die?" And "When you die, can I go in the ground too?" It is sad. We have to talk about the plan of salvation and eternal families. It makes him feel better. He is so cute. He also says "Mom, I am never moving out. I want to live with you forever." It might sound cute now, but I told him "I am trying to raise you so you can be a responsible man and have a family of your own." It's fun parenting, but I hope I am teaching him all that I can and being the best example that I can be.

Xayla: Just trying to run the house. She is such a girl. She loves to dance and tell her brother off. She does not say words, but you know what she is saying with her whines and barks. She is walking well.

Nothing really else is going on. Oh, I turned 28 on July 2nd. We just spent my birthday at Lake Powell.
Kobi will be 7 years old on July 28th!

Xayla had enough!

K.C. lighting fireworks 

4th of July. We went swimming at a friend's house. Then, we went to Grandma's and lit fireworks. Fireworks are expensive! It was fun! Here is K.C's Mom and the kids!

Lake Powell 

There was this little cave. It was neat. 

She is only 12! 

K.C.'s crazy family clift jumping.  

Kobi trying to catch the big one! 

Yes, our family used gloves when we fished. K.C.'s Uncle just laughed at us. He called us "City folks". That is OK. At least our hand didn't smell like fish.  

Xayla's new water shoes! Cute. 

Xayla loved the boat. It always made her fall asleep. 

We did some swimming. This is K.C.'s Aunt swimming. She is a great swimmer.  

Kobi was so excited to go fishing. He said "I am going to fish with my Daddy." He is so cute. Here he is with his pole. 

We went to Lake Powell over the weekend. First, we went to Grandma Carolyn's house (K.C.'s Mother's Mom). The kids had fun. 

Blanding, Lake Powell

We went to Blanding, Utah to visit some of K.C.'s family. We also went to Lake Powell and stayed on a house boat. It was a lot of fun. Then, today we went swimming with some friends. I will have to post pictures later. It was so nice being outdoors with no real electonic toys. Nice family time.
