RYLA 2010

Matt and I got involved with Rotary about 4 years ago and some day hope to join. We have tried to attend RYLA every year. It is the Rotary Youth Leadership Award. We pretty much spend 3 days with 130+ juniors in high school. We have a blast doing it and look forward to it every year. We would never be able to have this much needed break without the help of my mother-in-law. She took time out of her busy schedule to come and stay with the kids so that Matt and I could attend together this year. Thank you Thank you.

We went and got separate groups of about 7-8 kids that we were Team Leaders over. It was held at Heber Valley Camp. It was gorgeous.




The big service project push this year is called "Purple Pinkie's for Polio". Long story, but Rotary is trying to eradicate Polio from the world by 2012.



Matt and I got dressed up with newspaper as fictional characters. I was lucky enough to be Barney (in case you couldn't tell).



Matt was a space alien.



We love being apart of RYLA each year.

Preschool Man

Eston has started preschool. He is so excited. It is nice having something fun for just him. It is also nice to have just two kids for a few hours a week.



The parents were invited to stay for the first 30 minutes of school. Eston was so excited that he pushed me out the door within 2 minutes of us arriving at his school.



He wore his special hat the entire day and part of the next day.
