After watching Toy Story 3 last night I had difficult time leaving Oscar at soccer camp. I can’t believe how old he is getting. I ran in to an old friend today at camp – Jenny Ogden (Cannon). That was nice to catch up and talk. It was also fun to have seen quite a few old acquaintances during the 4th of July Festivities in Delta.

Oscar will have fun I think. I hope. The coaches seemed pretty great. The men’s and women’s BYU soccer coaches were running the camp and many of the soccer players for both teams were the coaches.

I took this picture at the beginning of the BYU game. AT&T was booked. I couldn’t call or email anything.

Here is a picture of the field. Cougar Nations was disappointed about not being able to beat FSU.

We didn’t come in to compete. They plainly outplayed us. We were riding high on the Oklahoma win and we were flattened. I’m still a proud BYU fan but I would have been more so if we had won.

BYU’s top recruit that just signed with them a few days ago. I heard alot about this guy on the radio but didn’t know much more. Here is a highlight reel of his 2008 season. You can also find some on his 2007 season. I’m excited. He’s going to be a nice addition to the BYU QB tradition.

What the heck is BYU’s problem? Why can’t our football team cremate these teams in the mountain west that just aren’t very good. Yes, they say these teams played good against them. But they haven’t played this good against Utah or other teams. I am getting really scared about the BYU / Utah game. I think that Utah has more of the killer instinct that will be to BYU’s downfall. I’m not predicting a loss by BYU but I am saying I’m pretty worried.

Please BYU. Please start to annihalate the teams you are playing. Defense you need to get going and keep these crummy teams from getting into these games. Remember Washington. We don’t need a thriller every game. If you want to be considered as a national title contender you need to cream teams all year long by huge margins, especially when we are coming from the Mountain West conference. No offense to the MWC but this conference doesn’t have the reputation that SEC or Big 12 or Big 10 conferences have.

We need to come in like warriors and kill San Diego State University next week. Please.

This has been a great week. We loved Conference weekend. There were several talks that really struck me and inspired me. I loved the Priesthood session. I was able to attend with my father, a friend from the ward and a friend of his came along as well. I loved President Uchtdorf, President Eyring, and President Monson’s talks. I also enjoyed hearing Elder Bednar’s talk on Sunday (improving our prayers to be more meaningful and effective).

The kids and I took a walk around the neighborhood and took some pictures. Here are some photos we took at an old LDS meetinghouse. I’ve wanted to take pictures for awhile. It is on 500 West 200 North in Provo. It is now Discover Academy (a school for troubled youth — I think). Anyone else know?

Mom and Dad came up for Saturday afternoon and evening so that Dad could come to the session with me. It was nice. I enjoyed having him there. Maybe we’ll be lucky and I’ll get the privilege of having Dad and Oscar with me at the same time; however, I don’t think that will be likely since Oscar is only 5 years old.

We bought some bunk beds this weekend and we started to paint them. We’ll have to show some pictures. The person we bought them had painted them halfway from red to white. It looked funny so we decided to paint them all white. Which is taking a few layers of paint. I think maybe one more good paint job. I did another this morning but I think we need one more. It will be nice to have them up. I know Oscar and Lily are excited about having them up (hopefully Oscar doesn’t fall from the top bunk too much).

Other news from the week: we are planning our trip to Disneyland for April 25th to May 2nd. We are going with Marlene’s mom and it should be a great time. I hope that Rachel can get away and come with us. Also we are looking forward to the Scoville Family Reunion in Richfield. We should plan a day of fishing or hiking as family. I know Marlene doesn’t want us (guys) to be gone exclusively on the 4-wheelers and (the ladies) get to watch the kids.

I am almost done with classes here at the Y. My last semester. I am excited. I still have to finish these classes, my comps, my dissertation prospectus and defense and then hopefully officially graduate in April 2009.

I am thinking that we’ll be staying around here for the next year doing my internship. If things can be arranged to work for one of the companies I worked for last summer I think I’ll be staying here.

Henry has passed his 2 month checkup. He is growing and happy. Here are some nice little pictures of him. Oscar and Lily love him (to death) almost. Or least he needs lots of space when they are around smothering him with loves, kisses and hugs. Big H (Henry) is a whopping 12 pounds and 6.5 ounces and 23 inches long. He is a beast compared to our two other kids when they were 2 months old. I’ll have to find some pictures and put them up.

Oscar at around 2 months. He looks so skinny. Marlene will have to comment and tell us his weight and height as I can’t find it and can’t remember. He was 6 lbs 11 ounces when he was born and 19.5 inches long. Then at the two month check-up he was 8 lbs and 21 inches long. Big difference.

Lily seemed to be health and okay at this time, but she also was born 6 pounds 9 ounces. (Mar found from our baby book for her that she was 12 pounds 6 ounces and 22 inches long). Wow! Just about identical to Big H. We’re hoping the trend continues well after the 3 month that he continues to gain.

The weight for both Oscar and Lily normalized and stabilized over time and now they seem to fit in with their peers, but their is so much pressure when they are young to make sure they are growing and developing in weight and height as they should.

In MFT School News:

I presented two posters at a BYU Research Conference, Mary Lou Fulton Mentored Student Research Conference last week. It went well. I’ll link my posters here.

Perceived and Used Work Flexibility and Work-Family Fit: Personal, Workplace, and Marriage-Family Vitality Outcomes

Costs of Treating Anxiety Disorders: A Structural Equation Model for Individual versus Conjoint Therapies

Let me know if you have any feedback.

Dr. Crane just sent his to me. How many kids can you take on? If you so dare, you can see how many you kids you’d fight.

And I haven’t even mentioned it but what about the NCAA Final Four games last Saturday. Total surprise by both teams that lost. I thought North Carolina and UCLA would win and play much better. I hope that Memphis plays well tonight.

**Note at 10pm (Memphis almost won in regulation. I thought they had it, but Kansas tied the game and won in overtime. Excellent game. Proof: That it’s not over until the fat lady sings (or in-other-words, until the buzzer sounds). Never give up. Persistence.

We’ve been enjoying Eli Stone, especially since Lost hasn’t been on the air for a few weeks. You can watch many of the episodes for Eli Stone at the ABC website that I linked above. You can also see all the episodes of Lost at the above link from all 4 seasons, thus far.
