First week of Summer- Busy, Busy, Busy

Some of the Guys the morning of the Lone Peak Basketball Camp. 
Britton on the first day, got MR Hustle on the first day.  I didn't get a picture of Braxton but he got it one day, Bronson is determined to work hard and get it next time and he wants to win the free throw contest.
As always, Brody came home with Best in the Camp and the free throw winner but he lost the 1 on 1 to Talon.

Cooper protecting the trophies. 

Britton and Treven on the last day watching the team game. 
Mason and Christian,  I think they both have gotten taller, such good young men.  Mason got a full ride to Western Nebraska to play ball.

Hunters took Britton to a Mini triathlon.
Nathan, Ethan, Britton, and Kade 



Britton had a great time, and did pretty good for a first time racer he says,  He loves being the Nathan.  Most people think they are twins.  We went to seven peaks for a few hours and these two were still going strong at 10 that night, we asked them if they were tired after the race and playing all day in the sun they look at each other and say no.

Yesterday  Jake Starley and his neighbor spoke in church, they both did a great job and will be good Missionaries.  They spoke on the 3rd and 9th Articles of Faith.  After we went down to Orem to hear President and Sister Judd speak.  Brady I know you will love them and you will learn so much from them.  Sister Judd reminded me of my mission presidents wife, she is so cute and full of joy.  She siad that the gospel is such a joyful fun thing in her life.  She said that doing the small and simple things, (like reading your scriptures, praying) done consistently over time changes us.  Our testimonies have to be tended and that we all have challenges that help us become what he wants us to become.  She also said that "No one ever progresses form ease to ease.
Her companion is a Man of Vision.  Your mission will probably go to a whole new level of missionary work.  They had very soft voices and so much enthusiasm.  I am so very excited for them to get to Ghana.  We also met the Dalton's who are leaving today, they are taking the Terry's place they will be just as great and powerful.  Met Elder Faren's mom, dad and sister, Elder Rich, Elder Henderson, Elder Cosper, Elder Spears, Elder Jones, Elder Taylor's parents were also there.
We love you and are so proud of you, keep working hard.  Take your vitams everyday.
You are our MAD Missionary!  Love mom
