Are you ready for some Football!!

Tomorrow marks Shawn's first football game. I know he is excited but a little nervous as am I. We are playing one of our own teams again this year which I don't understand. Kelly had her birthday party yesterday. I was at Shawn's practice but Val said it went pretty good. She told me that Kelly was a little hyper. She kept saying it was her birthday over and over again. Dad, Shauna, mom and Grandma and Grandpa Doyle came over. If I missed anyone I'm sorry. A.J. lost another tooth yesterday. I guess he was eating an Ego waffle and bit down and it came out. He called me at work to tell me, he was so funny on the phone.

UPDATE

Val and I last week went to France A. Davis the II wedding. When we got there we waited for Marshall and Bree. They got there a little before the ceremony started. Frances dad conducted. France was doing pretty good keeping it together until is soon to be wife came down the isle than he lost it. She is so pretty. It was nice to see France's family after so long. Both his parents remembered who I was and gave me a big hug. his sister Grace was pretty standoffish but that's Grace for you. Than I said hi to his sister Carolyn. She was like there's my little Gabe.


We have had a pretty crazy week this week. A.J's soccer coaches keep changing there days and where they practice which got my blood going. Shawn had 3 scrimmages this week and he scored a touchdown in each of the scrimmages. They also won each scrimmage also. We will be celebrating Kelly's Birthday next week. I'm just not sure which day hopefully Friday with Shawn having practice everyday this week except Friday and Saturday. We will have to see. Kelly also started her first week of school and now A.J. is off track. Shawn Starts school this week, he will be in 9th grade. Peyton his doing good. She picked up the phone yesterday when I called home and the same time as A.J. did and just started jabbering away. Rylie lost one of her caps off her tooth yesterday so she has a messed up tooth right now but hopefully we can get he into the dentist on Monday. Well I have to go, we have A.J's soccer game to go to @ 3:00 today

Shawn made it though tryouts and is on a pretty good team. He seems to be having a lot of fun. I was asked to help coach his team which is cool. I just hate being at work from six to five and then be at practice from six to nine. Shauna came over yesterday to help val organize the house a little. Shauna is good at things like that. A.J's allergies got so bad that they made his eyes swell up so he couldn't see out of one eye and the other was half shut. he had a good practice. He starts having games next Friday. Kelly starts school next week, yesss! She is excited to go back to school. On Saturday Val and I will be going to a long time friend France Davises wedding. I never thought that guy would get married. I might have to go buy a new shirt and tie so I look nice.

Football's Here

Shawn got his phone call on Friday night at about 12:00 or so. His coach just called and left a message. I guess there was a lot of stuf going down during the draft for football. I'm glad I wasn't involved in that this year. I will probably just be an assistant. Shawn's football coach his a pretty good guy. Val told me last night that I guess she was the cashier of the month at Homedepot. So I guess she gets a plaque and a gift card and stuff, go Val. I went to the dentist today and had a cleaning. I had 2 small cavaties that you can barely see.

Flooding

During the week A.J. had his soccer practice. He is still loving 1st grade. Val told him the other day that he will be going off track soon and he got a little mad and said he doesn't want to go off track. In the last couple of weeks Peyton has been really attached to Val. She can't go anywhere with out Peyton being right behind her. It's like she thinks Val in going to leave her and not she her again. Shawn started football on Saturday. He seemed to be in a lot better shape this year, not as winded at the end of practice. I might be an assistant. It just depends on what coach picks Shawn. We had some flooding in our neighborhood. Luckily it didn't effect our house but the people from our old ward it effected a lot. One member lost there basement because the water broke in through window well. Friday I was bailing water out of window wells, it was pretty crazy.

Un eventful week

Two days ago I was mowing the lawn and twisted my ankle. Shawn was on the porch and saw me go down and thought that I had ran my foot over with the lawn mower. I have such bad ankles. I played ball last night which is always fun. Val went to the doctor yesterday because she thought she had pink eye and she did. She also found out that she had lost a couple more pounds. Sooner than later we will have to buy her new clothes because her clothes are falling off of her. She also found out that if she keeps up her eating healthy that she will eventually be off of her diabetic pill, ya!! Shawn ended up earning all of his money for football. Now he just has $30 left to pay us back for his football gloves. He is realizing what it takes to earn the money and be able to get the things he wants. Hopefully he will take car of the things that he works for. Kelly spent a week and a half at her Aunt Lauren's house. She said she had fun. She's been a real help since she came back. Sometimes it's hard to separate Peyton from Kelly.
