Spring Fling Choir Concert

During the Spring Choir Concert Hayley had a solo in "Les Miserables"
She did an amazing job - but it was 6 minutes long, so I couldn't upload it for you to hear. She auditioned for the show choir next year "Gate City Singers" and made it!!!

PARKER GOES TO PROM!!

Parker learning a little scoop move...She's one brave girl!
Jeron does the dip to Marrie...he dropped her first, but I didn't show you that...

Hayley is still a Sophomore...no going to Prom for her, but her buddy Jeron wants to take her next year! Jeron is one of her best friends. And of course Parker is her best friend of all. They give her a little smooch here before they leave!
Yeah, these 2 have so much fun together!

Here is her Chayanne (Chy) showing off her corsage. She loved it!

Parker tried so hard to match her pink! He loved going with her because she's so much fun and they are really great friends - no pressure, just a night of FUN!

This was the little group of 4. Marrie made her camo dress - it was actually quite beautiful! Jeron had a bit of a tough time matching her! They played lazer tag for a day date and had Chinese food for dinner. This is a fun group of friends!

HAYLEY TURNS 16!!

Hayley's best friend Kylie and the funniest kid in the world - Weston...having a blast at the dance.
Parker poses here with some of their friends at the dance. It was such a fun night!

Here is the amazing cake in all it's glory!! It was quite the hit! Nicole did a great job- she's a good friend to do this for Hayley.

Hayley got kidnapped at 6am to out with friends for a birthday breakfast! Kyrstin Akai and Angie McKee are about to blindfold her with this red shirt.


Here is the set up for her birthday bash! I work with Jennie and her family runs a DJ & Sound business on the side. Here they are setting up for the dance! It was really amazing!

Hayley poses in front of her cake! Mom's friend Nicole is a cake baker for weddings, etc. She made this awesome zebra cake for Hayley. It was such a hit that night!

She blew out the candles so fast....just couldn't get her in the act! But she did it!

At the party there were about 68 kids who came....Holy Cow! Quite a Sweet 16 bash!!

Mom cuts the cake...it was kinda sad...

Luckily we cut it when we did....there was plenty to go around. Kids were a little full from the nacho's and chips and treats they'd been eating all night!

POKY'S GOT TALENT

It all started out at a Senior All Night party planning meeting. I was there & they up and assigned me to be in charge of Fundraising! I promptly declined because I have no time. But I told the parents I would try to help with it as much as I could. Well after quite a bit of thought, I suggested we do a talent show & call it Poky's Got Talent. Yep, it got turned down 2 months in a row and then after much persistence I brought it up again and they finally bit! I immediately got to work & got permission from Principal and we were off! Lots of people made it happen and so many kids performed. It was a great night! And...we earned $1900. Not bad eh?!

HAYLEY GOES TO CALGARY CANADA ON CHOIR TOUR

Hayley had an absolute blast on her Choir Tour to Canada. She was very lucky to go and get such nice support to be able to make it there.
Hayley and her very good friend MacKenzie.

They made it through customs and are heading into Calgary! Oooh what fun!

Poky's Musical "Bye, Bye Birdie"

Almost entire cast...What a fun musical! They all had so much fun! Here are Parker and Hayley with Linda the choreographer (in peach) and Kaileen in red is the Director! They are amazing and know how to put on a great show!

Parker and Sean Mullett. Sean is a freshman this year and was the Lighting guy! He controlled the lights and spotlights. He did a very good job. He is so silly & just jumped right into Parker's arms for about 2 seconds and then jumped back down. Parker's been a fun mentor to him.

Closing Night. Hayley got flowers and Parker got a honkin stack of candy! They are so cute together and are such good friends. It was very cool that they could do this together before he graduates in a few months.

Parker played a reporter, a father, and a teenager. Hayely played the part of Helen and got to star in "Telephone Hour". They both appeared many many times in the show. Here they are with Bryson (hugging Hayley) he played Hugo. In the back is Curtis Mitton who played Kim's little brother and Seiji Wood who played Conrad Birdie. His black eye is courtesy of Hugo! All such good friends and they had a blast together!

Parker turns 18!!!

After a very disappointing Senior Year in Marching Band, the band members chipped in together and baught Parker this mixer to use for his beatboxing! Parker was in shock and could barely speak. He lead the band with such pride and encouragement, but finally broke down in St. George; the band members knew how much he cared & it was a pretty tender few minutes. Parker's friend Hadley came up with the idea & pitched it to both busses of kids & man did they hand out money...and all for Parker to get this mixer. Hayley got Parker some amazing cologne!

Parker rarely wants Birthday Cake...His favorite is Mom's chocolate fudge. So we stick candles in fudge for him! He loves it!

Here's some of the band after their Christmas Concert. From Left to Right it's : Jake, Tyler, Parker, Robert, Hadley, Alex & Paul. This had been a fun concert & Parker got to beatbox once again.

After the concert Hadley revealed yet another surprise!! You can't see it very well at all, but the band lead Parker out to his car & showed him that they collected enough money, to also get him personalized license plates: "BEATBOX". I helped a little to get it all done!
