Patrick had a great day at the Special Olympic Track Area Games today.  He won two gold and two silver.  

Getting the bronze metal. 

POWER RANGER

I googled my name and found this funny video Dallin Paul showing power ranger moves

A good workout with dad at the gym

At Mooches

So we workout for about one and a half hours and then we go to Mooches (Nyla's) for treats.  It works..

This is such a great video

This post is a couple of years old but it is one of my favorite Dallin Paul stories so I am posting it again:

So Sunday night (yes SUNDAY) everyone else was playing board games. Dad invited Patrick and Dallin Paul to go to Mooches, our favorite c-store for some treats. Just as we were leaving at 6:25 Mom said, "You can't go now, the Home Teachers are coming at 6:30". Home teachers come by each month to visit members of the LDS church. Dad decided we would all run on to the home teachers just as they were coming so he made the decision to stay. He told Patrick and Paul that the home teachers were coming and we would go to Mooches after they left. Dallin Paul took things into his own hands and posted this notice on our front door. Unfortunately it didn't stop them from coming.

SUCH HONESTY IS GENERALLY NOT ALLOWED IN THE CHURCH.

Here is a video of Patrick.  He is a spokesman for Best Buddies and has some great buddies through the program.

Patrick was supposed to have state cross-county skiing games in Ogden Valley on Saturday but there was no snow so we played a bit over the weekend.   It was cloudy but over 60 degrees today. 

We went up Logan Canyon to look at the river.  This is by second dam and Patrick is on the bridge.

They got to play with nieces and nephews; this is Nora and Emi in pretty Easter colored dresses.

Patrick up on the bridge. What a handsome guy.

Dallin Paul near the river.  He didn't go to far from the car because he was playing Angry Birds on his dad's cell phone. He is pretty good at it.

Wendy's always cooks a good meal. 

YARD WORK 3/2012
Today we helped Dad rake all the pine needles off of the front lawn. We have two big pine trees with long needles and we filled the whole truck with fallen needles and cones.  We had fun though.  We listened to music on the Bose/iPod and played with Dodger.  After it was all unloaded we went to Wendy's.  We were going to go swimming but it was such a nice day outside we just kept working. 

 

Making good strides

Get ready, get set, GO

Always time to visit

Patrick had a great day of X-country skiing at the regional meet up near Beaver Mountain.  He received two gold and one silver medals.  Good job. 

SWIMMING

Ready to have some fun

Believe it or not, Dad is a good swimmer. He swims for over 30 minutes 

Patrick shoots.  He swims in Special Olympics and has won lots of gold.

Paul doesn't swim but he loves to shot baskets

Great times

We had a crazy reunion with all my brothers and sisters and their spouses and all of our nephews and nieces.  Here are some pics.  It was a busy week or two.

Patrick and Dad went to the Willie Nelson concert in Salt Lake City. 

We took a trip to Salt Lake with Dad and Mom and met our brother Christopher.   We went down on the Front Runner a fast train that was great to ride.  We saw the Christmas lights in at Temple Square and had dinner had our favorite place, Crown Burgers. 

Paul the prankster.   He does love to do funny things. This is him with a nylon on. 

Here is Patrick with his nephew Isaac.  They crack each other up.  

It has been a long time since we have posted.   That's our Dad's fault because we really have been busy.   Patrick is still working at USU and Dallin Paul is now on campus attending the Developmental Skills Lab.  We still do Mooches and love to play with our nephews and nieces.  We will post a few pictures.   Love you all.

We both had Birthdays. Paul's was on August 28th and Patrick's was on August 5th. We had big celebrations with all of our family. Also we had a family reunion were all of our brothers and sisters and their families came. It was a blast. The first picture is Paul, the second of Patrick and the last one of us together with our nephew Isaac.
