Where did the summer go???

Since the last post in April we have done a lot.  In June it was Yellowstone and Jackson. July 4th with the Turners. Trying to stay on top of my homework has been so much fun. One more year and then the celebrations begin.
Royce is busy this year. He is on the Swim Team, in drama - they are putting on "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" the 18th, 19th, 20th of November, and working at BK's.
He and I pass every once in a while in the house. 
Will try to take pictures at the play and get those posted.
That about covers it in a nutshell from the Swell.
Maybe I will get fancier next time like everyone else.

Aristocats

Top photo Royce is beat boxing with the Alley Cats singing in the opening song. This is Royce's rendition of Vichy in the kids production of "The Aristocats". He made quite the dog. It was fun to watch. The kids in the adience really enjoyed it when the cat dog chase scene runs through the audience and at the end the cast came out into the audience singing everyone wants to be a cat.
Emery's Drama Students went to State and every contestant received superior ratings (highest honors at state). Emery was given the Superior School Award for having someone inevery event take straight superiors. Royce received a medal for his part.

After the Friday performance it was the girls choice dance "Sadie Hawkins". Royce went to that and then Saturday morning his date picked him up and they went to her house for breakfast. He has had a busy week.

I am just doing the same old thing. Working and doing school work. Can't wait to see everyone that is able to make it to Bri's shower on May 1st.

Royce the Actor

I finally got pictures off the camera so now everyone can see the budding actor in the family. This is all the sides of Royce in the Emery High School production of "Hello Dolly".

This is Royce emerging from what is a waterfall with one of his promenade partners. He had to do it twice due to a larger amount of girls compared to boys. Saddly i don't have any good pictures of his other partner. It was fun to watch and see all the dance skills aquired over the past week or so. And bottom is Royce and I posing just before going out to do the parent dance.

PROM!! Royce and Courtney at their Jr class Prom. The theme of the prom was One Enchanted Evening. They had lots of fun dancing and reminiscing with all of their friends. The following day they ventured off to provo on their date along with three other couples. They went ice skating, got ice cream, and went to dinner, which ended up being tons of fun.
