Super Saturday

Wow what a busy day! It started out with Becca's bridal shower. Becca (Ric and Mary's daughter) and Davis will be married on the 27th of June...it is so exciting. The shower was incredible and so much fun to see dear friends and family there. I grew up with Davis' mom Dawn. Our families were in the same ward forever!
It is so cool that we will now be related.

Mayce, Mary, Grandma Mollie and Becca

Me, Jennie, Aunt Barbara (Dad's wonderful sister) & Sharon (another amazing sister-in-law of mine)

Wow what gorgeous nieces I've got!

The next stop on Super Saturday was Kaden's championship football game. His team had an undefeated season and faced another undefeated team, The Federals (from Henderson). The Green Machine played tough and fought like warriors but they lost to the Federals...(we should have called out a Federal Marshall to dis-qualify them since they illegally played with kids too old!) We were so proud of Kaden and the way he played with heart and determination even though some of his opponents were two heads taller & twice as big!!!
Now he and a few of his teamates are preparing to go to California at the end of the month for a big tournament. It's easy to sometimes forget he is only eight!!


He got hurt after one hard hit...they called out the medic but
Kaden got right back up and played the rest of the game. I heard a parent say,
"If my kid got hit like that he'd be out the rest of the day. He(double ll), I'd be out after a hit like that!!"

The best part of the game was that Papa Jack came! He was a pretty cool cowboy riding his wheel chair!!!


To top Saturday off Jackson had his friends birthday party at a very cool indoor miniature golf place...all 12 kids had a blast and I loved watching them swing away with all the cool florescent black light stuff everywhere!
Wheeeeewwwwwww! I am tired. We were even able to fit Sam's Club shopping and cleaning Dad's house in there somewhere. It definitely was a super Saturday!
