Maggie and Tim - a little about them.

Maggie is 14 years old now and in the 8th grade at Warren Middle School. She is a Student Council rep and was elected as an officer for National Junior Honor Society. She likes to play Basketball (we are still waiting for word on whether she has made the team again this year or not) and she will be running track when the season starts. She has just finished her "4 year plan" for high school next year, and has chosen to continue all of her AP courses and hopefully graduate with honors. She will be taking the necessary courses to become a school teacher and attend BYU. We will see how all of that goes - it sure sounds like a like of work to me!

Maggie has just helped her daddy redecorate her bedroom and that has taken up a lot of her time. We have actually done a lot of things to the house lately, and I'm sure those pics will come soon!Maggie loves to be with her friends, texting constantly, coloring and watching all of the Disney classics over and over and over! All of these loves come second to her pumpkin - Charlie. (her dog, a pomapoo) We never cease to be amazed at how mushy she can get over that dog, as typically, she is NOT a fan of animals! AT ALL!

We think Maggie is a beauty inside and out!

As for Tim, he has gone back to public school this year and I miss him a lot! He is 8 years old and in the 3rd grade at Claybon Elementary. He LOVES his teacher, Mrs. Sanders. I find sweet notes to her on the back of most of his school papers! He isn't into anything extra curricular right now, as we thought it best to let him focus on school - the transition from home school to public school is sometimes tricky - but he has done great! No problems at all. In fact, at the academic pep rally he got to run in as a straight A student and was chosen to be the "Student of the 6 weeks" for his class! Yay Tim!! He is a good boy and we are lucky to have him in our lives! He does attend Scouts at church every Wednesday and he likes that a lot - especially when they go fishing! He is our little outdoors man! He loves his pet bunny Lila B. and his new kitten Sprout. He swears he will own a farm with every kind of animal on it one day. That of'course will be something he takes care of when he is not singing on Broadway. He will get that job as a result of his fantastic showing on American Idol!! Did I mention he was a dreamer too?
