State Champions!!

BCH Heatwave came in 1st place!
Good job BCH swimmers, you are all amazing!!

State Championships have finally arrieved!

Shayna got so much support at her swim meet. She wanted me to Thank everyone who came. It made her feel very special. Thank you so much to Grandma and Grandpa Turner, Uncle Shane, Grandma Donna, Uncle Roger and Ron, Uncle Ronnie and Aunt Vicky and Cole and Cheyanne. We really appreciate all of the support you show Shayna!
The night before the meet we painted Shayna's finger nails in the BCH colors. Red and Blue and in silver writing we wrote State Champ. They turned out really cute!
The first day of the meet she swam the 50 Breast stroke and the 100 IM. She did amazing on both of them. If you shaved time off of your personal record you got a little finger puppet. Out of the 6 races that Shay was in, she came home with five new personal records. How cool is that?!



Roger and Ron couldn't make it in time to see the first day of races but they made it to my house before we did. When we got there the house was all decorated and he was making us a big Mexican Fiesta Dinner.

 
Of course no party is complete without a pinata.....or 4!
Thank you Roger and Ron for always making things so special and fun. The kids absolutely loved this surprise and will never forget it. You guys are the BEST!!

Shayna's second day of races was loaded. I knew she was going to get tired. But she got through it and did a fantastic job. She continued to shave time and did better then expected.
She swam the 50 Butterfly, 50 Backstroke, 100 Breaststroke and 100 freestyle. How could she not be tired after that? This was such a fun and stressful swim meet. Just the fact that she made it to State is a huge accomplishment. I am so proud of her. The meet was a four day meet but Shay only swam two of the days. So on Monday while everybody else was swimming we got Roger, Ron and Grandma to hang out with us for the day. We went to Yogurt Land, then headed out for some miniature golf. In the swimmers goodie bag we got a coupon for this mini golf course so we thought we would give it a try......never again. But we had fun anyway!
Britton wouldn't let me take a picture of him so I had to snap a shot while he was talking to me..LOL!
Then we went to a late lunch and headed back to my house to play cards. Shayna's new favorite game is 21. We played it a lot this weekend. 
The kids had to go back to school on Tuesday and Roger, Ron and Grandma left to go visit my Parents in Saint George so now we are back to our same old routine.....it was fun while it lasted!!

BCH Volunteers

BCH Heatwave is hosting the State Championship swim meet this year so I volunteered to help out with the goodie bag stuffing.We have 900 swimmers coming from all over the State. So we have to make 900 bags.
While I was stuffing away the kids were making BCH signs to hang up around the pool to show our support for our team.
Britton even got in on the action.
Thank you LeeAnn for supplying the paint and paint brushes. This was so much fun for the kids and all of the posters turned out great!

Happy 1st Birthday Chopper!

It's hard to believe that Chopzilla is already one.
He loved his home made Birthday Cake.
And his new bone.
What a spoiled boy!
