Zion - swimming

Hey....Zion is getting faster!

Check out the photos below -

Zion didn't have the best start -
in his defense - our swim team doesn't have starting blocks to practice on.

BUT....my point is:
Look at the boy in the other lane and how Zion catches up to him by the end.

YOU ROCK ZY!!

I AM

I am mischievous and awesome
I wonder about the future
I hear Captin Underpants
I see King Kong
I want to play vidieo games all day and every day
I am mischievous and awesome

I preatend to fight aliens
I feel happy about flying
I touch Captin America's shield
I worry about getting grounded
I cry about doing chores
I am mischievous and awesome

I understand Long Division
I say God made the world
I dream about Heaven
I try to walk on my hands
I hope for an Everlasting Life
I am mischievous and awesome

4th grade award!

The school year is moving along and the boys are getting into the groove.

Zion is always up for a challenge, so when the teacher sent home a spelling challenge....

Zion took the bull by the horns.





Congrats to Zion for spelling,

Zion turns 10














Zion's birthday fell on a Sunday this year,
so he ordered meatloaf with spaghetti and sauce
for dinner on Saturday night and we let him open his gifts since Sundays are busy days.



movie - (Tim Hawkins)  funny guy!

Books

Clothes (boring!)

and the 'biggie' gift


which, at this photo, Zion still doesn't realize what the 'biggie' gift is.............

and then he does............
                                                 an iPad

Sunday after church ........he ordered lemon pound cake (just like his dad)

Happy Birthday Zion - I love you!
