| Payson broke his wrist at Young Men's camp :( He fell off a zip line. It looks like he needs to wait a week or two before casting, to let the swelling go down, and then be in a cast for 4-6 weeks. He will not need surgery. We are sorry he won't get to mow with Roger and the boys :( Get well soon Pays !! |

 |
| Cam is headed out to Hawaii today for a vacation with Auntie Ann, Auntie Christine, and cousin Hannah. She has been so looking forward to this, and promises to send lots of pics. They drove from Chandler to San Diego yesterday, and left this morning on the plane for Hawaii. She's going to have SO MUCH FUN !!! Cash and Mom (and Josiah) will sure miss her though. |
 |
| This picture was taken last Thursday night (September 22nd) at Treyson's JV football game. CJ reminded us that it had been TWENTY YEARS that day, since she and Zac were in their accident (getting hit by a drunk driver at the intersection of 100 S. and State Street). Where did all the years go? Click here for a quick recap of their accident |
 |
| After Tagg's ball game - it was great. They played well, and won big. Tagg plays Center on offense, and tackle or noseguard on defense. |
 |
| Last Friday afternoon we got all of the pumpkins and squash out of the garden, and all of the vines hauled down to the burn pile. Unfortunately, due to the grandkids being involved in so many sports, we were on our own (Gwen, Roger, Veloy & Lee). We hope to have a Harvest Party (chicken noodle soup in shop, and picking out pumpkins) this coming Sunday. Our crop was about 1/3 of what it was last year. |

| Cashman - "Hi Grandma! " |
 |
| Great picture from Morgan Sports Network (Benjamin Brown) - of Treyson getting a "tackle for loss" in the JV game last week against Ben Lomond. I mistakenly said it was a "sack", but was corrected by those who know much more about football than I do. I'm lucky to know if we are playing offense or defense......it drives Roger D. crazy !! |
 |
| Hi from ARIZONA again !! Cash and Manda I think they love each other :) |
 |
| These sweet girls are such good sisters. As you can see, we were at Payson's early morning baseball game last Saturday at Rohmer Park in Washington Terrace. It was SMILES all around !!! |
 |
| Hi Bentley Girl :) |
 |
| They won their game, and Payson was the catcher, and it is so fun to watch him. Reminds us so much of Landon. Such great old memories, and now NEW MEMORIES to be made!!! |
 |
| Thatcher played a good game against West Point, at Syracuse High School later in the afternoon last Saturday. Picture this..... The score is 13 (Morgan) to 8 (West Point), 25 seconds left in the game, West Point is making a drive for a "last chance" touchdown, the ball is caught and the running back takes off towards the goal line. Thatcher manages to catch him and bring him down on the 15 yard line, and SAVES the game!! It was a GREAT MOMENT !! |
 |
| Thatcher was able to play on Payson's baseball team on the 4th of July weekend in Midway. Landon is the coach. It was great to have they play together. |
