Football

Justin sure does love football. His team holds practice Monday thru Thursday nights from 5:30 to 7:30. This makes Justin very tired at night and he falls to sleep so easily. They have had one scrimmage and one game. The scrimmage was hard cuz the kids were all bigger and stronger but the coach wanted to give them an idea of what they could be facing.
Justin is the smallest on the team but you would never guess such. He has great speed and determination to stop the ball. They won their first game 9 touchdowns to none. Justin's has been dubbed Sasquatch and when his team mates stand on the sidelines and yell, "Squash them Sasquatch!", that is when Justin goes in for the kill and always does some amazing tackles.
Justin loves to get into the faces of those much bigger then him. You can always hear him on the field saying things like, "Wanna piece of me?" or "I'm going to smear you into the ground." The other players seem to shrug him off and are always amazed when Justin does smear them into the ground.
Here are many pictures of Justin.


























Cassia County Rodeo

After Justin's baptism, Justin, Jenni Dawn, Mom and her boyfriend Matt all went to the Cassai County Rodeo. Justin and Mom have only missed it once due to a funeral last year. They love to see everyone and watch the exciting action. This year, Justin was excited to get his very own turkey leg. He ate til he was sucking the juice out of the bones. He decided it was a favorite of his. Justin also enjoyed the cotton candy. That is very rare for Justin to have such a sugary treat.

Justin's Baptism

What a wonderful and perfect day. It was so good to see family. Uncle Kenny gave a talk on Baptism. Aunt Shanille gave a talk on the Holy Ghost. Both talks were so perfect and Justin enjoyed them. Grandpa Allen baptized Justin and Uncle Jon was able to confirm him. What a special blessing that was given. Here are a few pictures from our perfect day.

Justin loves that he was baptized. He's enjoying learning about the gospel and going to church. What a great kid he is. I am so proud of him.
I love you Justin Jeppen Allen
