McKenzie is approaching her 9th grade year, which is considered to be "high school," (oh...my...gosh...) even though she will still attend middle school. Rob told her it's time to make a more serious commitment to either dance or soccer to compete at the high school level. A tough decision, but soccer won out. Try-outs for competition teams were this week and results should be posted tomorrow. She's hoping to make the premier team. The premier team is made up of players with the highest skill level in the competition league. She'll attend a university soccer camp in July and train for high school try-outs.Update: McKenzie made the premier team! (Pictured with her try-out jersey.)
MK will continue with Taralee at M. Dance, but she won't compete in the spring. She's substitute teaching the Juniors in dance during the summer and a couple of parents have asked her if she would teach private lessons for their daughters in dance (Hannah, age 12; Lexi, age 12) and in gymnastics (Haley, age 7, and Taralee's daugher, Chloe, age 5). MK's also assisting with the Minis. Ideally, she'd like to keep up with dance, so she could have an awesome part-time job in college!

Ummm...Emma needs private lessons too. Oh and we need a good babysitter. We could keep you employed through college...don't worry about it.
Way to go MK! Could you just quit being so perfect. You kick butt at soccer too? Sheesh. Too many talents, you're going to get a big head! Keep it humble girl! I'm with Brit--if we move back to Utah, we will contribute to your employment!
