We're Baaaack!!

And you thought you would never hear from us again. It has been a very busy couple of weeks. School and all that stuff. So here is what is happening in Cokeville. The football team is still undefeated. They played Evanston JV and then Mt. View just last Friday. They killed Evanston and beat Mt. View by a close game. This week is Homecoming, so all you former Cokeville-ites, come and celebrate, oh, that's right, you guys have other lives. I'll try to post some pictures of homecoming. I hope you noticed that Shari was able to watch the live broadcast of one of the volleyball games. I'll have things up and running so that you can watch the football and the volleyball game live. It just depends on how fast we can take the equipment down from the football game and bring it to the gym for the volleyball game. Just go to www.Cokeville.com and click on the CHS Broadcast button, then hit the launch webcast button. Wait a bit, and then it should come on. During the week, I'll have it off for maintenance stuff, but hopefully, by next week you'll be able to watch Channel 39 all of the time from your computer. Isn't technology fun? So make sure you watch football and volleyball this Friday starting at 1:30 pm.

The volleyball team had a great two weeks. They beat Mt. View and Big Piney two weeks ago and then beat Bear Lake and Kemmerer this past week. They then went to Thermopolis and won the tournament there. They played Cody for the championship. For homecoming they will play Kemmerer again. It should be a great match. Kemmerer is a lot better than they used to be.

Kandyce, I think is still going to school at Utah State. Haven't heard from her for awhile. Probably doing what all college kids do............hardy party!!!! No she just called and she is doing just fine at school.

Brady is now a zone leader in his mission. He feels overwhelmed for the call, but he'll do a great job. He is still trying to form a branch in Jelgava. He actually gets to stay in Jelgava as the leader. He's pretty excited about that. He said they had 18 people show up for church last Sunday. He is loving his mission.

McKenzie is doing well in school. She is in the school musical. They are doing Westside Story. Because of her brown eyes and dark hair she is member of the "Sharks" in the play. She is setting for the JV and is a serving specialist on the varsity. Against Big Piney, she served 20 points in a row. I was hoping for a sweep, but just fell short.

Kennan is still playing football. Their team got beat by Pinedale last week. He plays on the "B" team because he is sooooo big. (I'm being sarcastic). He did get a couple of tackles and a couple of knock downs. He plays cornerback and loves it.
Ellen just got back from spending a large amount of time with her sisters. They stayed at Park City and had nothing but fun. Here is Park City from the tram they took.

They have been doing this for the last couple of years. All of her sisters get together and stay a couple of days somewhere and just have a sister's outing. With 10 sisters, I'm sure anybody could join them and nobody would know the difference. They had all of them there but one. And here are all of the sisters but Jane.

 A fun time was had by all. Ellen is in the primary presidency and they just had their primary program for sacrament meeting. It was my first time also. Yes, I am now in the primary teaching the Valiant 10 class. There are 15 kids in the class. Amazing what a baseball bat can do to keep order with so many students. I just love it.

And finally, Bill is Bill.

Ellen wanted me to post some pictures that she took at Park City so here are some that she wanted people to see. Here is a picture of the home that Ellen's mother and grandmother used to live in. This isn't in Park City but she went to visit her dad and they drove around Springville.
Here is a some pictures of the trip to Park City. Lindsay can you tell where Ellen is hiding?

Of course the leaves are changing.
Ellen said she really liked this old building.
Just playing around with the foliage in Park City. Look familiar Lindsay?

Hey fam! Glad to hear how everything is going. Sounds like Mom had a great time at Park City. I really think that our family should do that. I wish you all could come fly out here and spend some time with us here in Georgia. We could go down to Savannah and do all sorts of fun things. I'm starting to get all teary eyed! I'm really missing my family!!! Love you guys!!
