Teamwork, and Congratulations to Jessica, Hannah and Houston

The Superbowl was last Saturday and was the end to the Patriots season, while they lost the game the team had nothing to be ashamed of. They worked hard in every game, their teamwork was amazing, they were supportive of one another, and always cheered their teammates on win or loose, they are all winners in my book. Now that flag football is over it is time to decide if Houston will play tackle football in the fall, I have mixed feelings about it, of course his Dad is all for it and Houston seems to be excited about it as well. Houston is excited that school is over for the summer, he will miss his wonderful teacher Ms. Snyder and his classmates but is ready for a much needed break. He did very well in 3rd grade, he had straight A's and perfect attendance, we are very proud of him.

Hannah is also looking forward to summer and school being out, it will be a busy summer with EFY, Girls Camp, Soccer Camp and Driver's Education (YIKES!). She had a very successful Freshman year maintaining an all A average while playing on the Varsity Soccer team. She also lettered in soccer this year and is now the proud owner of her first Letterman jacket. I may be biased but I think she looks adorable in it. We are so proud of all that Hannah accomplished this year, it was a great start to her High School years.

Jessica completed her first year of College at the University of Utah, she took a few general ed. classes such as math and writing and had a couple of Architecture classes as well. So far she is still very excited about her major and is looking forward to learning more and doing more hands on projects. She did very well and received the honor of being on the Dean's list, we are very proud of her accomplishments and transition into adulthood. She is learning responsibility and working hard, she attends the singles ward, fulfills her calling and is looking forward to going on a Mission. Jessica made the choice to take summer classes at the U to allow her the opportunity to stay home in Texas for the Fall Semester to be here for her sister's birth and to help out. We look forward to having her home from mid August until after Christmas.

Such great kids you have! I love Hannah's letter jacket. Very cute. That's really impressive that she was on the varsity team as a freshman. What a woman. Yay to Houston too. I can't believe how big he is getting. I'm really delighted to hear how well Jessica did in her first year of college and think it's a good move to have her take summer classes to be there to help out in the fall with the new baby sister.
