Mitchell Is So Funny!

Today Mitchell and I went to EVIT (East Valley Institute of Technology) to check out the programs that they offer to high school students. He walked into one of the classrooms/shops and said that this was the program he wanted to be a part of. It is the "Precision Manufacturing" program taught by Mr. Ward. This program teaches the students how to manufacture metal parts to certain specifications and he can earn a level one certificate in this field. Mitchell will be able to use the skills in this class to create his own bike parts and maybe create custom bikes in his future.

After we left EVIT, Mitchell went to get a haircut. Like all kids that get haircuts, Mitchell got a lollipop when he was done because he was a good boy :) As he drove us home, I heard him start to make strange noises. He had somehow flipped the end of the lollipop stick up his nose while the yummy candy part was in his mouth. It was funny to watch him try to get the stuck stick out of his nose. Of course one of his hands had to leave the steering wheel to help him get it out. He is such funny teenager! I love Mitchell!

Update at Our House...

It's been a busy January so far. Mitchell flew off his bike when he did a jump and has an AC Sprain in his shoulder. He is not allowed to bike or play sports for the next 6 weeks. Grant has started puberty and had his first zit that needed to be popped. Good thing Brent was here to give him secret man tips on how to pop those nasty zits. So basically, we are just having some growing pains this month!
