Back~To~School
Summer went by way to fast and all the boys went back to school!! Jackson was excited to start his last year in Elementary (although I am not *sniff*) and rule the school being in 6th grade and participate in Safety Patrol. It's his last year for fun parties in school and the year to get prepared for Middle school :( Ayden just loves his teacher Miss. Crocker and has a lot of great friends in his class. He is busy already learning his times tables and cursive writing! Landon couldn't wait to start pre-school at The Red Brick Schoolhouse and just loves it!! He can't wait to go to school with his brother next year...I can. It's going to be a great school year but I am sure it will be over before we know it.......Tuesday, September 7, 2010

Soccer Boys!!
The boys all had their 1st soccer games last Saturday. Despite the wind it was a great day on the field. Landon had his very 1st soccer game ever and he scored 2 goals!! He loved it and can't wait to play again :) Jackson and Ayden both played goalie for a quarter for their teams and did a great job. We look forward to a great fall soccer season and spending our Saturday's on the field. Way to go Cundick boys!!!

"And a little child shall lead them..."
Watch this video first...
Worth Sharing...
I just watched Ayden - I'm assuming your son - and as it was written, "And a little child shall lead them..."
My heart is full right now, my eyes are swollen and it is hard to see. I sit typing to someone I don't even know but I can tell you a secret - there are no accidents - The Savior knew all of this and through God's plan of Happiness every finite detail of all our lives are as one picture before Him.
I was married in the Manti temple. We have two sons, both Eagle Scouts, both served honorable missions. My oldest graduated from from BYU last December with a Bachelor's in Psychology. I sat in a sealing room in the San Diego Temple and watched him marry his sweetheart, they now have a 7 month old beautiful little girl named Lily.
They came to live with my wife and me in our "retirement" home in the mountains of Colorado, they lived on the first level.
His wife, yet a sweetheart, had a rough childhood. Somehow and for some reason she and I just didn't get along. It resulted in their moving out. They went to her family in Mo., St. Louis, and he now works at Wal- Mart......
A couple months ago my beloved eternal companion announced that she had become disenchanted with "everything" and one day while I was at Church she and some friends backed a U-Haul type truck up to our house and in the 3 hours I was gone she cleaned out the house. She quit her job as a banker and went to out bishop to tell him she was leaving. That is all he could tell me.
I could not work, need oxygen at night to sleep, and was left with only a few pieces of furniture. I hired a property management firm to lease our home and I packed what few things I had left and came to Utah. I have a friend here that I've known for 28 years. He gave me a room in his basement where I'm typing these words now.
I went to the temple (Jordan River) last week and did a couple sessions to take a couple family file names through for my friends friends here. It was wonderful yet very lonely.
Today I had hoped to hear from my oldest and my youngest sons, my youngest is still in school at BYU, and nothing. No calls, no emails, nothing. Mothers can have amazing influence I guess and as I sat in my bishops office here today just to vent a little my only response was "I just don't know why??" What have I done? What have I not done to cause this to happen? My wife and I were ordinance workers in the Denver Temple until just recently. There is no explanation. The one good thing that the Lord has blessed me to know for a certainty in my heart and soul is that this has nothing to do with moral issues - for whatever reason my wife just "needs space..."
I do so pray that this is not the tip of the iceberg for many like me. After this happened I had two friends - one is a high council member - tell me without mentioning names that they know of two other situations very similar to this. One sister one day just got up and walked out leaving little children and her husband, a temple marriage, and went to Ecuador where she lived in a hut I'm told out near the jungle for several months all by herself. Then one day she just showed up at the door and her husband opened his arms and welcomed her back.
With me, I'm having to lease our home and that will be for a minimum of one year.
It is indeed the eleventh hour of the last days and as has been prophesied, "Satan will tempt and if possible draw away even the very elect..."
Be thankful for Ayden, families are forever, even if this life gapes wide the very mouth of Hell wide open in front of you, the Lord will never abandon those who love Him and follow His commandments.
Thank you for letting me vent - to someone I don't even know, but it feels right. The Lord knows all and I can testify that there are no accidents, nor is the pre-destination. His hand is in all our lives in ways we cannot imagine now but someday, someway, all will be made better and the bad turned to our good for those who are faithful.
My name is Ken, and it is hoped by me that there is someone special in your life who deserves a hug for Father's Day......

Lagoon
We spent a day at Lagoon in Early August, it was a fun day. Landon won a huge dog and snake playing a water gun game and Jackson and Ayden won Jazz bears shooting hoops!! I think the games were the highlight of the day *LOL* Landon had fun riding all the kiddie rides over and over while Ryan took Jackson and Ayden on all the big rides! It was a fun summer day :)

a boy and his bike
Landon got a new bike and has been practicing riding it without training wheels! He is a little timid about tipping over but I think he'll be riding it on his own before summers over :) Way to go Landon!!Our new lawn boy!!
Jackson started mowing the lawn a couple of weeks ago to earn some extra money. He does a really good job and says he'll mow twice a week til the snow flies!!Wednesday, August 25, 2010
Snowbird
King of the World!!
Priceless SMILE!!
Head over Heels!!
The end of July we spent the day up at Snowbird. We rode the tram up to Kings Peak and hiked down, it was awesome. At the top you could see the valley and it was so high up that it made me sick. I was constantly nervous telling the boys to stay away from the edge, I hate being afraid of heights :( We also went on the alpine slide, did the bungee trampoline (which everyone loved), the mechanical bull and the ropes course. Ryan and Jackson did the zip line, it was so much fun. Ryan and Jackson want to go back and ride the digger dirt scooters down the mountain but I think they'll have to wait until Jackson's a little older ;) It was a perfect day and we are so lucky to live so close to the beautiful Wasatch Mountains.Sunday, August 15, 2010
Skate Park
The boys have had so much fun taking their bikes and scooters to the skate park this summer! They have gotten really comfortable with the jumps and skating the bowl :) It quickly became one of their favorite things to do!! Way to go boys!!Sunflowers
We have had so much fun watching our beautiful sunflowers grow from tiny seeds this summer! Some of them are over 9 feet tall and there are so many different colors!! We love watching all the butterflies, bumblebees and humming birds visit them each day. It's always brings a smile to your face when you see them :) we love sunflowers!!Gaffigan, Sonic & Swimmy
Meet the newest members of our family.... Gaffigan, Sonic and Swimmy. Bet you can tell who's who *lol* Jackson named his fish Gaffigan because he LOVES Jim Gaffigan and his fish is a white pale albino goldfish, we all laughed when he named him :) Ayden's black fin tipped gold fish is named Swimmy and Landon's is Sonic. The night we got the fish I made salmon for dinner and guess what.... none of the boys would eat. They said that now that they have fish for pet's they didn't want to eat fish *LOL* I guess going fishing's out now too!
