Quick Family Update

Just for grins, and sorry I don't have any pictures, I thought I'd give everyone a quick update on the family. The boys just finished their Fall Baseball season. It was really fun, busy, and great learning experiences for both boys. Cayden went up to Minors this season. That is very different than Rookies. The kids pitch the ball, so needless to say there aren't many hits and a lots of walks! It threw him off for a while and even though he is a great hitter, it wasn't until the last part of the season that he started hitting. It's intimidating to the kids to have another kid pitching (sometimes they actually get hit by the ball, Yikes!). Cayden tried out pitching at the beginning of the season, but for some reason he didn't do anymore towards the end. Not sure why, unless he told the coach he didn't want to. All in all he had a great season. He is really becoming a great ball player. Ryan also did really wonderful. He is growing up so fast and still has a great time playing. He, too, toward the end of the season starting hitting the ball just about every time he was up to bat! The problem was that he hit it right to the first baseman most times and got out! But, he really stepped it up and started taking the game more seriously than in the past. He really enjoyed playing, and we really, really enjoyed watching him. Abby is doing really well at becoming a young woman. Yes, she is only 4, but just about every morning, she wants to put my make up on. I let her put on some eye shadow (sheer) just so she thinks she's getting some. I really enjoy my days with her. She will go anywhere I drag her and is such a good girl. She is back in her gym class and enjoying every minute of it. I think she's ready to try out for the olympics in her mind! Corey has been called as the Elder's Quorum President and has been keeping busy with all that entails. I am now the Primary Secretary and love it! It's busier than I thought, but I have wanted to be a secretary for a long time. I also have lost 27 pounds on the HCG diet that I did with my cousin. I feel really good and have maintained it so far (2 weeks) and I am really motivated to keep maintaining it. I am going to do another round after the first of the year and I can't wait to lose even more! Well, that's a short update on all of us. We are off to Disneyland with Corey's mom and brother's family. I will definitely be posting a bunch of pictures when we get back!
