This is Sarah Skinner writing the Skinner update. My mom is a busy woman getting ready for camp and all. I was bored and this is the result.
So last Sunday night the family drove up to Salt Lake airport to bring our long lost father home. It has been so nice to have him home again this week. He is an amazing Dad! Any-hoo my amazing Dad brought home shirts from San Fe for all of the family. I had the hardest time during this picture to not blink. It took like 10 tries.

Savannah this week had work everyday and is becoming a every rich child. She also took the A.C.T. this Saturday and feels good about the first half. She also was the only Skinner young woman that was able to go to the Temple. I so wish I could have gone. This week Megan, Savannah, and I stayed up in the late hours of the night talking and let me tell you we have the funniest conversations at that insane time. It is so fun to share a room with such great sisters.

Me. I mean Sarah had a tennis filled week playing Tuesday, and Thursday mornings with her class and then Friday and Saturday playing in a tournament the high school coach had. She played really well beating the first two people she played and then lost to a pro 11 year old girl who whipped her butt. She had fun playing with her though. She also score kept Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday night at softball games, watching all those games makes her badly want to play!

Megan had a tennis week too! She went to play tennis Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday early in the morning. She said it was okay but she would like it if Sarah was there with her sense of humor. She umped Tuesday. Besides that she was couch buddies with me (Sarah) reading. She finished 3 books this week and Sarah finished 3 books too. What good readers we are.

Mariah played softball Tuesday and Thursday.  She won one and lost one. She is really good and enjoys it greatly. She went on a lot of bike rides this week, she is so active.

Cheyenne and Calianne played tennis Monday and Wednesday this week and are getting better. (I hope). They also played with their 20 million annoying friends. I swear I opened the door about 10 times on average every day to let their friends in. They have such fun and I am glad they do but why oh why always at our house?

Bethany went to ballet. She is such a cute ballerina. She plays with her own friends when she can but she plays a lot with the twins and their friends.

Ben has really hit the terrible threes like no other. He destroys like every thing, but is so cute that you can't even be mad at him. He says his week was good. He really likes his trucks and all. He is so CUTE!

My mother this week made Bethany a dress just like the one she made for herself a couple of weeks ago. When I saw this I asked if she was going to make me one and she just laughed. What is up with that?  She has also been into watching tennis for some weird reason. She is so funny about that.

This week was also Art City Days so the carnival was in town so my mom took the youngest 6, (I was score keeping and Savannah at work,) From what I heard they had a good time and Ben was adorable on the rides and loved every second of  it and when it ended would not get off, screaming and holding on for his life my mom had to pull him off every ride then had to keep him in line for the next ride while he was still screaming and trying to run away . She says it is hard to have little children sometimes. I absolutely agree.




Being Art City Days, the youngest 5 but Ben went to the Art Festival to do arts and things. I believe they had fun? The Parade Saturday was in my opinion interesting. The funniest part was seeing people I know and stealing candy from my siblings. (They love it when I do that.)
Well that will conclude this week of the Skinner Update from Sarah Skinner.
