Kolten's Track Experience

Thursday was such and awesome day for Kolten. He had his first track meet at the Ravsten Stadium. He won every race he entered (not by a little) and had so many compliments on how fast he ran. He even had football coaches come up to him and tell him he needed to sign up for football and that they would sure like to have him on their team. Almost every person on the field left knowing who Kolten Bates was because of his accomplishment. We are sooooooo proud of him and hope he continues to do well while striving to do his best in everything he does. Good job Kolty! We love you!

It's About Time!!

K, so I know I haven't been on here forever so I thought I better update. To make a long story short, we went from our house by the airport, to my aunt and uncle's (Ron & Toni's), and now to some apartments by Smith's on Woodruff. I would say we are "Movin On Up" don't ya think? Well, to tell the truth, we are waiting patiently to save up a little money to build our house in Shelley. I don't yet quite know when that will be (hopefully soon) but I do have to say that even though we are in apartments now, it sure beats the heck out of living in the neighborhood by the airport... I hated that house for so many reasons! So now that we got you up to speed on what has been going on in the Bates' house, I will try to update this more often. Hopefully with more great pics of family camping trips coming soon! Oh & boating...
