The Call Family

Avery is always trying to be just like her dad; whether it is talking on the phone, playing the drums, or riding the motorcycle. Whenever Skyler will let her she loves to take rides up and down the driveway. The first time she ever got to ride she shouted out “Yay!” and by the end her little fingers had to be pried off of the handlebars.

We have discovered that Avery loves to be at the lake. We took her a few times last year, but she was so young that she just lounged in the boat. This year, however, we had a hard time keeping her out of the water. As soon as I would let her, she sat on the swim deck and put her feet in the water. Moments later, she was trying to scoot off and into the water. Skyler jumped into the water and Avery went in after him. After swimming around for a while we decided it was time to strap on the wakeboards! It was a great day of boarding and Avery enjoyed holding the flag whenever we would let her.

Today I received a phone call from the principal at Greenwood Elementary School in American Fork. She offered me a part-time, fourth grade position in her school. I, of course, accepted. My contract starts on August 14th. I will be working Mon.-Fri. from 12-3:45. These hours are perfect for me and Avery. We will have plenty of time to play together in the morning. I am very excited!
