Nunn Times

Time for an update on our family. Someday when I am old and bored, I will remember back to these times....

Carly

* Follows me all around the house all day talking and talking - then we follow her big sisters around all afternoon and evening
* She likes to help me - her favorite task to help me with is folding laundry. She also mops sometimes and even helped me paint Jill's bathroom
* Her favorite weekday activity: storytime at the library. She also gets a sucker every time we go to the bank or post office
* She loves to play with her cousin, Annie-Jo and calls her several times a week. She also likes playing with her friend, Maggie.
* Carly is in her last few weeks of nursery and will soon become a Sunbeam
* She wants to do whatever her big sisters are doing: dribbling the basketball, serving the volleyball, tying goats, etc.

Lucy

* Lucy loves school. Her grade one teacher is Mrs. Romeril. She is happy but quiet in the mornings when we wake her up to eat breakfast and get ready for school.
* She played basketball with Champs this year (an 8-week after school basketball camp). She loved it. She just smiles as she dribbles up and down the court.
* Her favorite thing to play with is her Barbies.
* She would play with a friend after school every single day if we let her.
* After falling off our horse Cheno, she lost her confidence but it is slowly coming back as she started to ride Sparky the pony again, and now we have a new horse that she walks, trots and lopes on...Bugsy.
* Lucy is still our family princess

Hanna

* Hanna is having a great grade 5 year with Mrs. Schow. She has fun friends in her class (Maren, Ashley, Mike & Mitch, Donavon, etc) They have a good intramural team.
* Her class got to spend 2 nights at Waterton for a fun campout and to learn about Waterton.
* Hanna also played Champs basketball this year. She is good at defense.
* She enjoys activity days at the church. She just got new leaders.
* She is in her second year of senior choir at the elementary school. The choir is really talented, and she loves it.

* She goes to a junior roping class on Mondays and a goat tying class on Wednesdays. She went to her first rodeo of the season and placed 1st in break away, 2nd in goats, and almost caught the heels team roping with Jill. She is an awesome cowgirl.

* Hanna says she wants to be a vet when she grows up. She loves her dog, Roxie.

* Hanna's current obsession is earning money to buy a bearded dragon. This is her washing windows to earn money and then her money collection.

Jill

*Jill is a true teenager (braces, wearing random colored socks to school, hanging out with friends, shows a wide range of emotions, is taller than her Mom)
* But we love her. She is the top student on the honor roll in her grade. She is playing the clarinet in band (which she doesn't really love).
This is Jill dressed up for blue and white days.

* Her YW leaders and friends love her
* She had a great year of volleyball, and they even won the division championship (#33)

* Austin is helping to coach her grade 7 girls basketball team
* Jill also goes to junior roping and goat tying at the Westwind Rodeo Academy. In her first rodeo of the year, she placed 6th in her division in goat tying (11.09 seconds) and caught the steer in team roping (but her heeler, Hanna missed). She is a really good rider.

Austin

*Principal of Cardston Junior High. We hear lots of good things about Austin as the principal. He really likes his staff, and he hasn't taken away any bottles of vodka this week. He is always working to make his school better and better. This week he started the phone system that calls parents to remind them of school events (We won't talk about the first time he used this system 5 years ago when the calls went out at 5 am).
* Austin is the 1st counselor in Young Mens. He is really excited to go on the winter campout this weekend. Have you ever heard Austin talk about his love for camping?? He only has 4 teachers in his quorum right now.
* Austin is training horses for other people. One is perfect because it gives him a little bit of cowboy time every day. Two is okay but busy. He got up to 4 for a while, but that is too much for his crazy life.
* Austin teaches junior roping class on Mondays. Last year he started with about 6 kids. This past week he had 19 kids on horses learning to rope. He has a teaching gift.

Kaylynn

*This is the newest addition to our family. I love it but it reminds me that I am getting old. We needed a new car to drive in the winter and for our road trips. I found it in Montana, took it for a test drive when I went to run the 5k with my friends, and went back the next week and bought it. Austin never saw it until I got home with it. My Mom said my Dad wouldn't have let her do that in a trillion years.
*I am getting older but love my life. I drive a Yukon, I have more and more gray hairs, I have a daughter that is taller than me, etc.
* I am the 1st counselor in Relief Society. It is a great calling with a great presidency.
* My current exercise schedule includes a weekly yoga class that I love (but I will spare any pictures of me in down dog or twisted prayer position). I also go to the junior high in the mornings to do P90x three times a week and run twice a week. I have great exercise friends.

That's all I can think of right now!
