Amanda wins Strikers!

Amanda's team won the Striker's Tournament!

It was a hard fought final that went into overtime and our girls prevailed!

 We had a good time hanging out with Bryan and Tiff Dickson during this game because their daughter was playing in the final game for her age group right after us.  Since we went into OT, they had to wait for us. Good time!

 A random picture of everyone hiding from the rain in the boat....

 Here's Amanda wishing for a new snowboard while we were waiting for dinner in Park City..

Random pics

We went to the Bees game courtesy of Baileys....

 The whole family talking to Mike's boss, Spencer.  His wife, Tyra too this and sent it to me.

 Some randoms from Lagoon.  Can't remember if I already posted and too lazy to go back to look!

 And the awkward family photo just because it's funny....

Boating....

 We hunkered down and tried to wait out the storm.  Sometimes we just like to hang on the boat :)

 And surprisingly, the kids get along in the boat......so we stay on as long as possible!

 My boys!

 Mikey getting birthday hugs

 We pulled to boat off the lake finally and had lunch at the marina picnic areas.

Happy Birthday Mikey!  We love you!

Mikey Birthday Weekend

 While we were back home because of dance, soccer & football, we had our traditional Mrs Backers cake!  Who remembered that we didn't have a 3 candle?  Not me!

 Saturday, we took the boat out on Jordanelle.  It was pretty cold.  The water was chilly, but the girls still wakeboarded.  Mike asked me why I take so many waterski pictures. I just like them.....

 But, instead of posting a lot of skiing pictures, I'll post a couple of falls....they are fun, too!

The girls were chilled and then a storm moved in.  We sat on the lake and waited it out.

Brandon's first scrimmage

Just a few photos from Brandon's first scrimmage.  They played 2 teams for half a game each in one evening.  They won both games!

 See B? He has an orange t-shirt underneath his white jersey.

 Slipping past the defender!
