WOW! Mesquite Kids on Stage's production of "The Jungle Book" was soooo cute! The play was held on July 9-11, and it was FABULOUS! Of course my favorite part was Ka, the snake, but it was all really well done! Brittany was brilliant in her singing solo...once I figure out how get it on the computer, I will post it so you can hear her. I will now let you see the pics....I am not the best photographer, but you will get the idea.

Cedar City.... Lessons & Rewards
Well, it wasn't pretty, but the job got done. Jayson's basketball team, the "Lil' Dawgs" were scheduled to play 3 games against three different teams from around Utah in the June 15-17, 11 and under tournament to decide who would play whom in the final medal bracket. It started out in a manner that was not exactly encouraging, yet neither was it discouraging. The first team we played, "Young Guns", was in matching custom uniforms and had age, height, and experience on their side. After three quarters of hanging tough, the Dawgs fell apart, and ended up losing by 8 when the final buzzer sounded. Not bad...but we really showed our lack of practice and experience. After all, they went into this with only six 1-hour practices under their belts, so we were okay with the outcome of the game.

Summertime...Why Isn't it Slowing Down?!?!
Ahh, summertime! Good memories from years gone by barely temper the fear I now have of hearing that dreaded two-word complaint...."I'm BORED!" Not a fun thing to have to work around if your summer weather averages in the 110-118 degree range. Sending them outside to play only stirs up new fears....pavement burns, sunburn, heatstroke, hose wars, and EXTREMELY HIGH WATER BILLS. Yikes! It's gonna be a long summer......when does school start again?
