Brie'el and Kilean made Varsity Soccer at Desert Ridge!!!




I am so excited to announce that both my girls made the Varsity soccer team this year! I can not remember the last time I have watched both my girls play at the same time and the same location. They have not EVER been on the same team! This is so exciting for me.....

I am the VP of the Soccer Boosters at Desert Ridge. I know I will be busy, but making sure the boys and girls get everything they need for this soccer season is important. This organization has come along way since I started. Our first year our banquet was potluck. Last year is was catered by Texas Roadhouse.

I can only hope that each year it will only get better! I will work in the snack bar serving dinner to anyone who will support us! Our hope is to serve dinner (cheap) so our parent will come straight after work and support our team!


If you are bored and want to watch soccer... come watch the boys or girls at DESERT RIDGE HIGH SCHOOL!!!

Keigan and his Eagle Project



Keigan has been in scout since he was 8. He was the only troop member that was not a member of the church. Keigan loved scouts. He loved the leader and the boys. I will admit there were times when he thought it was all silly. There were times when he simply did not want to go. But in the end... He liked scouts and continued to be active in his troop.

As he got older, scout became less important. He had school, band and work. Friends and video games took up some of his free time. Then we moved. He was no longer comfortable with this troop and he stopped going. I was very sad. But I had to remember this was Keigan's life not mine. I can tell him what I think he should do, and hope he listens. Two years have passed.....

We moved again. I met a member of the church who reviewed Keigan's scouting record. He was totally amazed that Keigan had gotten so close, but never finished. Keigan turns 18 on December 21st. Not much time is left. Keigan spent the entire day putting together his Eagle paperwork. He turned it in and his project was accepted in one day!!!!

I am pretty proud of Keigan. I am happy to say that Keigan is on his way to getting his Eagle. Some times it is better to leave things alone.. this time it was. This group of scouts are amazing! They have gone out of their way(in the holidays) mind you to make sure this happens for my son.


Kindness is not something you see too often Especially to a complete stranger. This leader had never met Keigan before today. But he spent the day helping someone. This will not go unnoticed in the Wiles home!!!!


Wish us luck.... we have a lot of work to do over the next few weeks!

Halloween

Halloween was fun.. Kilean and Brie'el both had soccer games. Kilean did well. SHe scored a goal and got home just in time for trick or treating!! Their game was delayed an hour. I drove to Tucson with Brie'el and the little ones and we got back around 530PM They won as well!!!


We got home, quickly changed and went to my friends house in Cortina. They had a bonfire in their driveway, food, spirits, and candy!!! The kids had a great time hanging out and running around. Kelsey ended up having her first REAL sleepover with Alexa (Kilean's friend)

Brie'el and Brett went to a friends house from our soccer team and Kilean hung out with Ashley.




Bryce was a ganster doctor??? Where do they get their ideas???



Brie'el and Brett were pretty funny... Don't worry his butt was plastic!!!!



We had Cainen... He was so cute!!!



This is the kids and their Dad!!! Trick or Treating is so much fun...



Kids having fun...



Kelsey and Kyler.... Kelsey wanted to be a cat again( for the 3rd year in a row!!!). So I painted her face to make thigs different!! She really did not like it!!

Fall break Disneyland!!!


















Frank and the kids REALLY wanted to go to Disneyland this Fall Break!!! I was trying to be the voice of reason..... Disneyland is expensive!!! We don't have the money....7 kids in the car for 6 to 7 hours?? Is this really going to be a lot of fun????


We wanted to get one more trip in before Keigan graduates from highschool. We as a family feel our time is limited with all our kids available. Some of our ducks will be leaving the nest soon, so we have to embrace any opportunities.

Frank has a sister and brother in law that live in California and work for Disneyland. They worked their "magic" and shared with us their passes they get each year. They were also able to get us a room for a fraction of the cost. Another Disneyland perk....

We had so much fun. We took 2 cars. I had the girls and Frank had the boys. We were armed with movies and snacks....

It was alot of fun to go when your little ones know the Disney movies. Then they go on the rides and feel apart of it!!! They finished Its a Small World and The buzz Light Year ride was new. I got all the big kids on The Tower Of Terror(Kyler loved it by the way) Kyler is a thrill seeker. He also loved the Mickey Mouse Roller Coaster. I couldn't believe it!!!His picture they took is of him SMILING!!!! He loved it!

WE all had a lot of un. We did it with little fighting(I won't lie) and lots of help!

Rather than being glad I am home.... this time I am looking forward to another trip!

The High school had a band concert last night. I am so excited that all 3 of my high school kids made the top band.

Of course I want to take a picture. And what I do not understand is why... can't I get any cooperation with these guys? Seriously they are old enough to behave....Right:)

Bryce looks so cute in his Cortina Shirt

The kids had such a good time at the playground.


















Homecoming 2009

Kilean and Brie'el went to homecoming this year. Kilean went with a bunch of her friends and Brie'el went with Brett. I was very happy with their dress choices this year. Both girls were pretty without lots of makeup and super short tight dresses!!!

Kilean went to dinner with her friends and Brie'el and Brett ate dinner at Ians's. His mom put together a fantastic dinner with her best china. OVER the TOP!!! We were very greatful. SHe did a great job!!!

The dance was fun and both girls came back with lots of stories to tell.
