The Mikkelsons: June 2018

It's Baseball Season!!

Parker started his first season of baseball playing for the rival team of our "home" high school. We put him in a league so he could play with a friend and they ended up not being on the same team. He learned a lot of great skills, had awesome coaches, and became a pretty great ball player. He continued playing for another league throughout the summer and will hopefully play with his same spring team in the fall.

Mom and Parker go to TSS!!

The last week of April, Parker and mom took a class trip to Kelly, WY for a week to stay in cabins and hike with the UE class of our school. We had a great time, ate really good food, saw a lot of wild life, hiked a lot, and got really tired. Parker and mom were able to be in the same field group so they got to spend lots of time together taking selfies.

Cooper is 9!!

Our handsome, intelligent, witty, sneaky, mischievous, girl loving little boy turned 9 years old on April 20, 2018. This kid is such a riot sometimes!! He can make you crack up when you've had the worst day. He doesn't like very many foods and is quite picky. He loves hamburgers, but only if they're fast food. He loves steak, but only if it's Texas Roadhouse. Some of his other food likes are: PB and grape jelly, Kraft mac & cheese, lots of cereal, and Top Ramen. He loves to be "sporty" and only dress in jogging/running pants and work out shirts. He is excited to start soccer in the fall. Absolutely loves his big brother and Gigi and would do anything for them. Loves to be the center of attention and make people laugh. This kid has also written some pretty funny grammar sentences while in Ms.Hope's class!! For his birthday dinner, we went to Lucy's Pizza with Papa & Nana and Sarah & Jason.

Matt turns 44!!

Matt turned 44 on April 12. I surprised him with a small get together in Salt Lake City, Utah with some of his long time friends (Jeff & Deann, Jamie & Julie, Jen, Josh, Madison, and Maryann & Russ). We stayed at a hotel in Sandy Friday and Saturday night after they all surprised him for dinner at Hoppers. Saturday, we went to the Sugar House Distillery then went paint balling. That night we all went to see a live show of "Impractical Jokers". We had the best time and have the best friends.
