I am no good at this!
I can't figure out how to get the pictures I want and in the right order so when you view Dalton's state pictures you have to go backwards starting with the Dalton at State post and view the pictures from the bottom up. I have other talents!!
Dalton at State!
He did it!!! He took 3rd at state today. He did so good, he ran smart and we are all so proud of him. The pictures tell a good story but they don't tell about the tears or nerves or pride of mom and dad.
Thanks Coach Giebel!!
Now UVU is giving him a good look!

Running!
Dalton has had an up and down season with illness but alas he is well and running great. He took 2nd in his region on Wednesday, Oct. 14th. He was hoping for 1st but he got a bit nervous and started out too fast. He ran a time of 16:18.8 minutes. This is a PR for him and so we were all pleased. We cannot get him to put on any weight with all of his illnesses lately and his very active life. You will notice his thin frame in the photos. The pics with black under armor is when he was very ill at the Bear River meet. The white is region at Cottonwood. The man is his coach Kim Giebel and the girl is Heather Houghton. Dalton has some really great kids to run with. Coach Giebel has done a great job with this program. He has taken a boys cross country team from 3 players to 15? They have a great time!! Thanks coach!!!
Dalton has some colleges interested in him running for them. The most action is from Westminster College in Salt Lake.
Volleyball!
Majerle is playing volleyball for BLHS. She hasn't played volleyball before but she is doing pretty good. She is having fun and she is a great example to her teammates. She is a unifier and fun to be with.
Last night's game she served underhand and somehow hit the top of the volleyball instead of the bottom! She usually does better than that.
Football
This year Jackson and Kennedey both played football. Jackson on the Jr. Pee Wee team and Kennedey on the Pee Wee team. Kennedey was not sure how much she liked football the first week and wanted to quit but after mom talked to her about sticking with commitments she continued and ended up enjoying the sport even with the many bruises!
Jackson's team found some success with football this season. He continues to be coached by Sterling Harris who is great and has a great coaching staff. The team's record was 6-1 and the lost in the first round of the playoffs to Kaysville (Alan and Dalton are convinced that the refs had something to do with it).
The family was very supportive!
See pictures
We're still alive!
It has been a while since I posted updates. We have been very busy with camping, girls camp, youth conference, running, football, volleyball....time races by.

Quick update on the Family
On the move!
We are almost done moving the shop. It has been a real chore and a stress for Alan.
Jennifer and the kids have helped as much as possible but Dalton and Alan have done the majority of the work.
The new shop is great! We realized the other day that Alan has been doing mechanic work for 25 years now. We should party!
On the road!
Dalton is almost done with driver's education so he can get his license.
Majerle is doing well with her permit driving and is ready to take driver's ed as soon as mom signs her up.
Summer Fun!
We started out the season of camping at Zion's Park at Easter time with the Zundel grandparents.

Majerle went on the Hiker Tour to Escalante (backpacking trip with Highland Jr. High).
We spent some time down by Delta camping, four wheeling, and family reunioning on Memorial Day weekend
June
Majerle went to EFY at USU.
Dalton went to team basketball camp at USU and BLHS won the championship.
Dalton went to position basketball camp at USU.

Grandma Toombs had a grand party for her Birthday!
Josh (cousin/nephew) left on his mission to Arizona.
Carrson and Stephanie came home from Alabama for a couple of weeks!!
Kearl family reunion at Cedar Ridge
We were able to spend two weekends at Cedar and then we had youth conference to get ready for.

Springtime in the Wasatch
It is starting to be spring and we are ready!
Majerle has started playing softball with Ben Lomond High School. She made the freshmen team. She seems to enjoy it. Can't wait for that first game.
Audrey played basketball for the Highland Hikers on the JV team. She did great! She exhibits good ball handling skills and is just a bit crazy.
Dalton finished basketball with BLHS and has moved on to Track. He runs the 1 mile, 2 mile, Medley, and participates in the high jump. This is his first year high jumping and is doing quite well. His first meet was Wednesday, March 18th. He took first in the mile with a time of 4:51, first in the 2 mile with a 'slow' time of 10:47, and he took 3rd in the high jump clearing 5' 6"
His high jump was not his best because he had to do it immediately following the mile race and so his legs were not quite ready for jumping. For state competition he needs to run the mile in about 4:33 and the 2mile under 10. I believe he can do both of these. If he can run the mile in 4:20 I believe he can place at state; 4:17 or better and he can probably take first at state. If he wants to place in the 2mile he will have to shave his time to at least 9:40. They say 30 seconds is the time expected to improve in one season. If this is true the mile looks good and the 2mile will take a lot of work. The high jump is harder to tell because this is his first year attempting and he has only been working on it for about a week. He has to clear 6' to qualify for state; I think he is clearing around 5' 6"- 5' 8"? Don't know what to expect with this event.
Mom doesn't run, or play basketball or softball.
You are correct...again no pictures!

That's My Boy!!!
This was heard often from the Ben Lomond cheering section as Dalton Zundel's parents enjoyed the high fives from fellow parents and visiting young men leaders as they watched his fantastic performance during Friday night's game. Ben Lomond High School Boy's basketball team went up against Ogden High in this historic game. This is the last time these teams will meet each other in the old Ogden High Gym. Ogden's new athletic center is near completion and we can't wait for a more accomodating facility.
Ben Lomond came out sluggish and didn't engage truly until the end of the second quarter but more in the third quarter. They almost lost it all in the fourth quarter when they failed to hang on to a ten point lead. This game was not without a couple of poor calls but the Ben Lomond Fans were very pleased with the Zundel's ability to control their tempers. "It's hard to be nasty when your son's young men leaders are sitting in front of you" said Mrs. Zundel. "It was not worth the risk of another repremand from principal Smith, do you know how big he is? He's scary!" remarked Mr. Zundel of Ron Zundel Auto Repair, LLC.
Dalton Zundel had a great game tonight scoring 17 of the teams 45 points. It was a nail biter but Ben Lomond came out on top. Ogden 44 - Ben Lomond 45
Picture from Logan game. Check out who Dalton gaurds!

Oh the noise, noise, noise, noise!
Break out the Plaid!!
She's a wee bit loud and a wee bit offa tune but the Bonnie Lass is puttin all she's got into the bugger. (use your best Scottish accent)
Majerle has a way with the Schottish Highland tradition. Her parents are lookin forward to havin her improvin, however their not to keen on the cost of the old pipes.
Should make for a lively family reunion come summer!! Did I hear someone say Kilt?
Majerle is learning the bagpipes and she is the star student. It has a lot to do with the music experience she has had with piano and violin. Music seems to come easy to her. Anyway, she is the only student that can take her Chanter home because she is advanced. (4 lessons into the program)

Basketball Season - The Most Wonderful Time of The Year!!
Dalton is doing great!
To check out his stats go to maxpreps.com and search Ben Lomond High School. These are Varsity stats only and he did not play a ton of Varsity minutes in the first few games.
Big News!
He is starting Varsity Friday, Jan. 9th against Bear River High!!
We are so proud of him and his hard work to improve. His JV coach, Coach Doolin, says he wishes he had 12 more Daltons. He says Dalton is the most coachable player he has.
Go Scot's!
