Evelyn is a Soccer Star!!!
Evelyn is a soccer star on her team the Bumble Bees! They played their first game yesterday and won! The score was 6 to 2. The Bumble Bees scored 7 of the total points scored. The other team, the Tigers, scored one of the points for the Bumble Bees and the Bumble Bees were gracious enough to score 2 points for the Tigers. Evelyn was one of the gracious ones and was sooo excited that she scored! I sooo wish that I would have had my camera out to capture the pure joy on her face. She was jumping up and down giving fives to everyone and all the kids seemed to be just as excited. LOVE LOVE LOVE. When she was on the sidelines she was cheering on her team and was loving that too!
She is number 11 which she was also very excited about...eleven-Evelyn-eleven-Evelyn..."They rhyme!" It is also a tongue twister!
Brian helped coached.
She is much taller than most the kids her age.

Update
I love posting pictures! But, I think it would be good to give a family update once in a while. So, here goes....
Brian still works at 3 Form and enjoys it most of the time. At church, he is the choir director and plays the piano in primary. He has been doing this for 3 + years I think!?!
I work from home, which is more challenging/rewarding than any other job I have EVER had. I love being a mom but often lose my hair over it. We also do foster care and don't know how much longer that will last. It is a rewarding job sometimes and I can stay home with the kids. At the same time, it is a sacrifice for our whole family and often the child we are caring for requires/demands more attention than all of our kids put together. I have 3 callings in our ward. I am on the enrichment committee (going on 5+yrs), primary teacher (I taught the 5 going on 6 yr olds until I had Mara and now I sub 2-3 times a month), and YW sports person (although I have an excellent co-sports person who took over when I was pregnant and after having Mara).
Karyn loves school. Her favorite subject is math. She enjoys reading and is currently reading the first Harry Potter. She loves running and just finished up Track and Field. It was soooo fun to watch her run. She always does her best and finishes all her races. In the all county meet she placed first in the mile and 400 m and took second in the 200 m! We love her!!!
Evelyn is starting Kindergarten today! She will be one of the oldest in her class (her b-day is in Oct) and she is definitely one of the tallest, by a lot!!! She is very sweet and is the hugger and kisser of the family. She was nervous but excited about starting school today. We all, Brian included, walked to school to see her off for her first day. Correction, Brian and I walked, Karyn and Evelyn rode scooters, Ewan was in the wagon and Mara was in the stroller. For her first day of school Evelyn got right up (which is unusual) and said she was going to go eat (which is also very unusual, she usually likes to wait a while before she eats). Yesterday we were going over the papers her teacher had given us and one of them instructed her to eat a good breakfast, so she did! She requested an omelet and raspberries. We love her!!!
Ewan loves cars, dinosaurs, bugs, playing on PBS kids, playing with his sisters, riding his bike, staying up past bedtime, sneaking into his parents bed in the middle of the night (he loves to sleep with his head by my head, his hand in my hair, and his feet in Brian's face), and he loves his sisters. He is a good big brother and loves to make Mara smile. He loves anything sweet and sometimes will choose eating nothing over eating something that is healthy. We love him!!!
Mara is a sweetheart. She is generally a good sleeper and sleeps more than any of our other kids. She likes to smile and loves watching her siblings. She probably smiles more watching them than any other time. She is very pleasant most of the time as long as she is with me. She is warming up to her daddy very quickly! Mara started rolling over from her stomach to back a couple months ago and is now rolling from her back to stomach, but has forgotten how to roll back to her back, haha! She is laughing, but not a lot. She really just likes to smile. Recently she has started to squeal and is very entertaining to her siblings. We love her!!!
