PROM 2010

Matt and Mikarie had a blast at Prom. They started off the day with a BBQ and games at the park. Then they met for pictures with their group and parents, went to Salt Lake for dinner, then back to Weber State for the dance. They capped the night off with an outdoor movie at the Deckers. What a great day full of fun memories. If I do say so myself....they were stunning together!!

One Happy Missionary


Elder Hunsaker enjoying what he loves the best....ocean and palm trees. (Well, minus the palm trees but you get what I mean)


Elder Hunsaker got to go on a 2 day split with Elder Haney...one of his favorite missionaries from his MTC district. It is their goal to be companions by the end of their mission. Can you see the happiness in Jordan's smile. He said it was one of his best two days yet!!

Trees

Nineteen years ago we got some little tree starts from Larry's house in Honeyville. We planted and enjoyed the shade for many years but unfortunately all good things must come to and end. The trees have started to die off the last year or so so we decided to cut them down this spring. We got the chainsaw up and running...Matt climbing the trees to tie on the rope and we were ready to go.

It was quite the excitement for all the kids and our great neighbors were eager and willing to help. The funny thing is is now we are all having a hard time finding our homes since the trees were every ones landmark.

Basketball Banquet

The basketball season has come to an end and with it came the basketball banquet. Of course it had to be on my birthday...great way to celebrate right?? LOL.

Even though we had a rough season it was still a nice evening. They handed out awards to the seniors with the most points scored, most steals etc. Then they started handing out awards to the best offensive player, defensive player and so on...it was really nice for the seniors. They passed out the Most Improved Player and Brookes Carter went up and got it...then the coach said...we couldn't decide between two players on this so we are going to pass out another Most Improved. He then went on to talk about trying to decide whether to keep this kid on the team but thought they needed too and how hard this kid came out and practiced. He did everything he was asked to do and ended up starting most games. He went on for a few more minutes (even more then he did for the first kid that got the award) and then said this is presented to Matt Hunsaker. HOLY COW!!! Wow...that was such a nice surprise especially since he was the only JV player to get an award. Way to go Matt!!

The funny thing is Matt has been trying to decide if he really wanted to play next year or not...(Larry and I want him too so bad). So now I think the pressure is on a little more to tryout after getting this award.

So proud of my 6' 2" basketball stud!!
