Soccer!

Zach and now for her first year, Kayla, has started soccer. I can really see Zach's growth this year and he's playing like a star! Kayla had a rough start when I accidentally enrolled her in the "Little Kickers" league with all the preschool children. She astounded me with her talent by getting in there and stealing the ball from everyone and getting goal after goal, but at the end she fell and got kicked in the head. She was a little hesitant with getting in for the ball after that, and now that I've changed her in the league she is supposed to be in, she still dances around the ball when it comes to her. I just sigh and tell myself she will get her confidence back with more experience, but sometimes it's a little hard to sit and watch her. :)

Timpanogos Trail

My brother, Jamie and I went hiking the Timpanogos Trail at the beginning of September. I had been wanting to do it since I went the first time when I was 16 or 17 years old. It was a lot of switch-back trails, but it was so beautiful that I enjoyed the entire hike. There were a lot of waterfalls and greenery to look at the whole way.



This is a view looking out toward Deer Creek. So pretty!

This is our ending destination. Here we took off our shoes and sat back to enjoy watching the not so smart BYU students slide down this hill. We saw a lot of scuffs and scrapes from people who thought it would be fun to slide down from the top.
