Well, it was a big week for Mariah! She had her last home game as a Springville Red Devil girl's basketball player. They honored all the seniors and their parents before the game on Friday night and the seniors were gifted with leis and embroidered blankets and thunderous applause. Then all the seniors got to start in the game and Mariah played great! They even pulled out a one-point win in the last minute of the game. Exciting times! We love that Mariah girl!

She actually had a pretty rough week leading up to senior night. She didn't want a senior night. She wants to keep playing high school basketball forever! I'm glad she's had such a great experience. Saturday was good for her, too! She went to the Sweetheart's Dance with a boy named, Mark. She looked lovely and had a great time!

Calianne also had a big basketball week as she and her team won on Monday and then went to the Nebo championship game on Tuesday! They read their names and had an announcer just like Varsity games at the high school. It was really fun! They did not actually win and there might have been a lot of tears shed, especially by our fiery little player, but even second place is pretty dang awesome! They had a great season and we loved watching them play!

Cheyenne played Friday night after Mariah's game. It wasn't her senior night, of course, but it was still her team's last home game, too. So, we were happy for their OVERTIME win! And took pictures there, too! Go Cheyenne!

Savannah has been battling really hard this week, too, as she had two papers due for English and she really did not want to write either one of them! Still, she fought on, bit by bit, and the last paper got turned in last night at midnight. Go Savannah! You got this.

Sarah has been having great success with her social life this week which is great because she loves to be with people and it has been hard for her to start over at a new school, so we are all happy to see her happy with new friends and new things in her life. She went to FHE to play Assassin, went to ward temple night, went to a game night, and went to her stake's Saturday conference session. She had great fun at all those places!

Bethany played two city rec basketball games this week and one bantam game. In her second city rec game she scored 12 points! Wow, Beth, go! She also scored 4 points in her bantam game! She is getting the hang of this! She also went to parties on Friday and Saturday nights and had piano lessons, karate, and drama. She is rarely bored.

Maybe the bantam's team last game!

Benjamin also played in two basketball games and has stopped complaining about them and we are calling that progress! He had his scout Blue and Gold banquet on Wednesday and got to touch a giant iguana and get awards and eat spaghetti. Good times! He also had karate and guitar. He, however, is frequently bored, ha ha, since his mom won't let him be on the computer until after dinner and what else could there possibly be to do?
