We Finally Have A Win!!!!

So coach has found a successful way to handle Mack...SHORT spurts of playing time. No doubt the kid loves the game, but he has no attention span. He played great this game... a great throw in, a little dribbling, but best of all had a huge save for the team (must have been the goal coach). Most of all the kid is having a blast!!! Loving It...

I've fallen and I can't get up!!!

Mack Moments

Threw a rock at a car outside Petsmart, luckily it was a really nice old couple, And yes there was a dent!!!

"Mom, stop freakin out!"

"I'm a Rock star!"

"Dad, don't talk to my Mom like that!!!" (Because Brandon is always saying that to him.)

"Whatever Mom..."

Threw Walter across the room and had to take him to the Hospital to see if his leg was broken!! Just a bruise...

There is never a DULL MOMENT WITH THIS KID!!!

Highlights Game No. 2

Well game 2 and he is still having a blast. His coach not so much...We have the smallest and youngest team in the league and my ADD child doesn't help the situation. He had some great runs with the ball, but spent most of the time picking grass and climbing the fence and goalpost instead of playing. And still managed to get a couple somersaults in!!!It was really funny for everyone else...On the way to the car after the game I started to think to myself maybe he just wasn't ready to play, until he looked up and said, "Man that was a great game". He was right it was... So excited for the big game...

Loving Walter, wishing he could come!
A little dribbling...
Going against the Giant (no way that kid is 4 or 5! and he needs a haircut)

Quote for the week

“You never know the biggest day of your life is going to be the biggest. The days you think are going to be the big ones, they are never as big as you make them out to be in your head. It’s the regular days, the one’s that start out normal, those are the days that end up being the biggest.”

The New Addition to the Fowers Family...

Walter arrived to our house today and we are loving every minute of him. He is a 8 week old Malti -Poo (half Poodle and Maltese). We have been looking for the right one for awhile and we finally found him. We made a list of names and read them to Mack he liked "Walter". So Walter it is!!! He is really sweet and has a great personality. Mack is so excited to have someone to take care of. Welcome Home Walter!!! Walter

Mack's 1st Appearance

So we experienced our 1st Soccer Game...It was hilarious. Brandon and I were so nervous with Mack already playing up a year on a 4-5 year old team, but he fit right in. No goals were scored from the Mackster, but he was definitely the entertainment. He used the old acting factor every time he came close to an opponent and fell to his knees in agony,when he got substituted out he cried that he never got to play, but best of all he did a somersault in the middle of the field during the game. He was really loving it. Mack had some great plays and dribbled the ball down the field. He did awesome for his first game...We were so proud!!! Strutting his stuff...

Park City

Our last summer getaway was spent up in Park City with some great friends. First the Nelsons came up...we ate good food, rode the Alpine Slide and Coaster, and hung out with the kids. Then the Gardners came up with their boys for a few days...we played, swam, and watched movies. We have a great time!!! Mack and Adley

You Know Your A Redneck If...

You live 10 minutes from the mouth of American Fork Canyon and fish on Silver Lake... A quad and a motorcycle are your means of transportation...

You ride shirtless...
Your 3 year old gets a ticket from the Forest Service for wearing the wrong type of helmet...
So you go to Cabela's and purchase him a real motorcyle helmet...
You fish more than 1 day in the week...
Your 3 year old can reel in his own trout...
You swim in a freezin lake...
You pee in the rocks...
Fish in your undies...
And shirtless...

Even the girls fish...
You actually keep the fish and BBQ them...
And 4 generations fish together... It was so awesome to see Mack fish with my Grandpa Warren, it reminded me so much of when I was a kid. I have so many fun memories of fishing!!!
And you actually go 4 wheeling in your HUMMER!!!


Needless to say we are REDNECKS!!! We had a great week with my family up the Canyon.
