A Bountiful Life: Springtime with the Simpson's

Here is what we are up to this Spring!

Lauren

Can't catch a picture of her - she is at school or work most of the time. She finished another semester of school and will take the summer off. Because of her extra time she has a 3rd job. She now teaches Korean students English in the wee morning hours, she helps a few hours a week with a cute little autistic boy, and now she has found a job at a day care to fill her afternoon's and Saturday's. She is hoping to sock away some money to help with the upcoming school year. She started taking a cake decorating class and loved it - but may have to stop because of the new job.

Jake - He has been very busy working. All of the boys are referee's for kids soccer games, but Jake does it the most. He also works for South Davis Rec center and helps with races, softball, and will help with kids craft classes this summer at the rec center.

He really wants to give someone a red card!

Alex

His spring life has been non stop soccer. He had practice or a game every weekday. He was excited to have made the Bountiful High team even though he is only 9th grade. We weren't sure as a freshman how much he would play, but he ended up starting for the JV team and playing in most Varsity games. He had his end of the year soccer banquet on Sat. and he was given "Rookie of the year" award from his coaches. The season is now over - he is hoping to spend some time refereeing and mowing lawns for some summertime cash.

Kevin and McKay

These two are good buddies and do a lot together. They have had fun on their rec soccer team. It's not super competitive but it's lots of fun. They also go on scout over-nighters together. They did a fun trip Friday night where they did some rock climbing.

McKay does a little refereeing and is in an after-school jazz band group. He is enjoying figuring out the saxophone.

Kevin will go home next week for the summer. We will miss him a lot! We are glad he has one more school year with us.
