Summer Happenings...

The end of the school year was busy! We had concerts, baseball games, dance recitals, and track meets.Victoria went to her second year at Girl's Camp, which was held at Kenosha Pass near Bailey. The girls had a wonderful time, and the theme was "Happily Ever After." Our ward was Rapunzel, and the girls made lamps to hang in the campsite.Tori was the first girl that repelled down the mountain!





Strasburg Ward Young Women.


For some strange reason, I was called to lead the fourth year backpacking trip. I think people have a misconception I'm outdoorsy; Scott says it's because of my hippie boots and lack of hairstyle. Anyway, I didn't get anyone lost, and we had a great time! Also this summer, Gauge has been shredding it up!!

Catch Up!!

Finally you will now know what we have been doing since July! We've been busy with school- Gauge is a first grader, Anastasha's in sixth, and Victoria is in seventh grade. Two middle schoolers! Ahhh!!Here's a few Halloween pictures- Biebs and his Belieber.Gauge with some of his school friends at Halloween.Victoria turned 13 in December- we can hardly believe we have a teenager. She's doing well in school, sings with "Young Voices of Colorado," and is always practicing piano and guitar.Christmas morning- do you think Gauge is excited?Anastasha is holding Laura's new baby, Brady. We met him over Christmas and he is so beautiful! Anastasha plays the trumpet this year, and is doing well in school. She has a lot of good friends she does things with.
Gauge being himself at the Melville Christmas morning. He even wore this moustache and a curly wig to "Crazy Hair Day" at school! He is playing baseball this summer, which he loves. He is also the highest reader in his class!Everyone was there at Christmas!Gauge turned 8 in February, and was baptized. Mom and Popcan came out for it, and it was a pretty special weekend!

Scott has been busy in the Bishopric and at work. I have been busy with school, my choir, and I also presented this January at the Colorado Music Educators Association conference.
I'll try to be better about posting!
