Zach Yearbook

We had to write a page for Zach in the year book and this is what I turned in. Not sure if I like it, love it humm?


Zachary Robert Floisand
The world through the eyes of Zach is a very fun & interesting place.
ZachAttack, Smackary, ZackULA, Our Pooh Bear, Buzz Light Year & even Robin.
"Holy hole in the donut, your moving on" – (Robin)
Zach “U” always attack things with a competitive heart
Football, basketball, baseball, endless sit ups & of course “trying” to beat your mom.
“U” have taught us just as much as you have learned.
“U” have always loved friends, laughter & to tease.
But your Pooh Bear heart stuck up for others especially
those who are being bullied. 
                                                                                         
                                                                       


“A little Consideration, a little Thought for Others,
makes all the difference.(Winnie the pooh)
Even the big bad wolf became nice in your world.
Your eyes & smile draw others to you
Zach you know how to listen and love unconditionally
“U” decided many things early in life; healthy mind and body
to treat people with respect, even girls
“U” never had to follow trends or others
“U” had Zachary ways, you are a leader.
“U” tell it how it is, never a lie. “U” write your name on everything.
“U” have had such an incredible part in our home.
Watching “U” grow up has been a blessing every single day.
“U” have never ceased to amaze us with your determination and work ethics.
“And will you succeed? Yes indeed, yes indeed! Ninety-eight and
three-quarters percent guaranteed. (Dr. Seuss)”
We Love “U”

“To infinity and beyond!” (Buzz light year)
Love Dad, Mom, Scott, Joshua & Austin


 There is so much we coudl say about Zach but you ony have so much room to use and so we have cut it down and taken things in and out and hopefully this works.


 ALl of the pictures surrounding this post we also turned in.  With the one of him as a baby with sunglasses as the background. WIsh I knew how to post this like we are going to have it in the yearbook.



 

It has been kind of fun to go through all the photos and see his personality and remember alot of memories.

Wait where is that post?

Time to blog....
I have messed up more times then I can count.. So I started blogging and some how I have made a blog.. ok so where is the mess up you may ask.... First I am missing blogs I did and then
After trying to figure it all out and where some of my post are... I have determined, I made more then one as in more then one blog and I have been trying to figure it out.. So I guess I have a family one http://floisandfab6.blogspot.com/ and one for ME... http://sudznus.blogspot.com/  & then as I was checking out everything I find I have one I created for my boys... I started it when my son Scott left on his mission.. http://elderflo.blogspot.com/  I figured the name will work for all 4 of them if they choose to go.. I think this is where I stoped blogging Sooooo I guess some how I will keep up with all areas.. Good luck to me right! I'm just trying to figure out what to post on what one. I'm sure I will figure it out. Such a trival thought!  Plus the family post are no longer available on here, I think I deleted them somehow. Starting NEW it is going to be a good thing.
Here is the family Christmas card for 2011....


 I think I will start and just blog with what ever comes to mind and today I was thinking about how wonderful of a family I have and how hard it is for me when they go back to school. I always read these notes & post. "can't wait they are finally going back to school" "I can get so much done school is back on" "I'm going to kill them can't they go back to school already" I'm sure you have heard these and many others. BUT ME... I'm like NO I love them being home. Come on one more day let school be out longer like it use to be. I totally LOVE having my family home. Who cares about the mess in the home the dishes left everywhere the socks left in the bathroom after there shower. (YES I wish they would pick up after them self) But having them around is so nice. They are great boy's all 5 of them. My husband Andy who after 6-7 years of working graveyard and being home with me has landed an awesome job with the Church working 8am to 5pm. I was so happy for him until it hit me... wait I am home alone I am going to have to do it alone. I'm ok with that part. He is just my best friend as well as a fabulous husband. He takes care of me. 
Andy & I doing one of our Chip events for Tim's Cascade snacks. I think this is the Women's show


Andy trying my son's jacket on. He was having fun with me, because I thought for sure this jacket would fit him..A little snug..haa haa But that he should just wear it, even if it was 2 sizes to small...


Not as happy... What hubby would Christmas shop and try things on so I can see if I like it. This was a cardigan I wanted to buy for my oldest son. I ended up not getting it in this color, But I thought with them being the same size I could see if it would look good. I should of bought it. Andy is my wodnerful husband and my best friend in the whole world. I love you ANDY!

ANdy & I back when we first met... High School I was 14...
Scotty my first son He is a busy guy working and going to school. He works for a car detail shop. Very hard work. He is going to school at SLCC getting his basic stuff done. He just recently got his grades and all "A's".   He recently made me so jelous... he bought my favorite car. a Chrysler 300, his car is bluish silver. Love those cars maybe some day he will let me drive it. I need to get a picture of it.. Scott has truely been blessed with everything he touches that he wants to accomplish he does. He would pick up a ball and no matter what sport he would be the best at it. He played Basketball, football & baseball in High School and was on the Varsity team in all 3 all four years. He lettered in all of them all 4 years. He has a way of talking to people that is a blessing. They love to hear him and he makes everyone smile. My younger boys listen to everything he says and I love it. He is so kind hearted and has a love for helping people. He would give the shirt of his back and in fact he has done that just recently. When we went to see Joshua at the airport one of  the missionaries traveling with Joshua to Honduras shampoo exploded in his suit case. Scott right there in the airport took his shirt off and we cleaned his suitcase and things up with it. He thought of that before I could even think of going to get paper towls for the missionary. When he came into this world he was a sick boy and I had to leave the hospital without him. I spent many hours going up to see this 9lb 11oz 21inch BIG baby boy. Everyones comments what is wrong with that baby it looks way to healthy to be in ICU. He started out with a few obstacles but then he has been my most healthy kid ever. He hardly got sick growing up. Infact never did he miss a practice or a game while playing sports from ages 3 to 18. He loves sports, BYU sports, He likes to play more then watching, he loves the color blue, He loved the 49ers (Steve Young) as a young boy then switched to the titans until Haloti Ngata a neighbor boy started playing for the Ravens. He loves the Dogers & the Jazz. He loves to help people. He is my red head bluish grey eyed boy at 6'2.


This is Scott and his girl fried Jessica Christmas morning. Jessica put this headband on him.. He is trying not to smile or get mad that I am taking pictures of it all.  He just was showing us his blanket from Jessica that her and her mom made in rasta colors..

Scotty & I Don't you just love that smile? It brings many thoughts & memories back to me. He makes his Mom so happy and I love when he smiles. Picture taken Dec 24 2011 at Amy & Halvors house


Next my second son Joshua who is currently serving a mission in Honduras San Pedro Sula mission. He has been on  a mission since Oct 12 2011.  It was hard when Scotty left and I thought it would get easier. I was so wrong. It has been very hard on me since Joshua left. I cry often and I try to do it when no one is around. Don't want it to affect my other boys. It is hard to let your boys go no matter what it is for. Joshua saved his own money and purchased everything he needed for his mission and saved enough so when he comes home he will have money along with money in the bank to pay for extras on his mission. He has made me really think about $money$. I need to be more like him on saving.  Joshua is my quiet one. He has a huge heart but doesnt say much. He has helped our family in many ways. Joshua is a perfectionist and likes things done right and always fallows the rules. Such a good kid. Joshua had a lot of trials growing up in his younger years he was sick often. Many hospital visits and even a disease that affected 6 in Utah and out of the 6 only 2 lived. When I found out that that disease killed most of the kids it really truely was a blessing to know he had many things he needed to accomplish in life. That the Lord allowed him to stay here and finish them. I am very thankful all the things we dealt with while he was growing up has not affected him now. He grew out of the ashma thank heavens and for most part hasnt been sick for many years. But his younger years was a true test. He has a big heart and loves to help. He is really tight with his money and it shows with all he has saved. He loves Greenbay Packers, BYU football, Mt Dew, Spaghetti & is a dang good LAcrosse player. He was even ofered to come play Lacrosse for college but choose to serve a mission instead.  Joshua, he is my dark hair brown eyed boy at maybe 5'10.

Joshua one of his loves GUN's and he is a dang good shot!


My third son Zachary. Zach came into this world loud and letting everyone know what he stands for. We use to tease that when he crys we have to give in cause he will wake the neighbors he is so loud. Zach continues to lead and stand up for what he believes. He reads the scriptures daily and plans for a mission. He can't lie. This kid is my lovable one. He has a little bit of a funny side to him. He loves comedy and loves to make everyone laugh and have a good time but Zach would never want it to hurt your feelings. Zachary once said "why make fun of the unpopular kid why not the very popular they can handle it." He sticks up for anyone that is being bullied. He makes everyone know he likes them by his actions. He has many friends that come and ask if he has time to talk even friends he hasnt hung out with since elementary. They all know he is a true friend. Zach was named camptain of his football team this year and captian of his basketball team. He is truley a leader. He does have a stuborn streak in him. Zach is hard to talk into something unless he wants it. Zach is very competitive! He will win if at all possible. Zach needs his sleep! One time growing up Zach had a sleep over and all of a sudden Zach is up in his bed and all his friends are down watching TV. I came up and said what are you doing? He said I am tired I am going to bed. BUT Zach you have friends over you can't leave them alone. But Mom I am tired if they don't want to be alone then come up here. I had to explain to Zach that you have to be a good host and stay down with them. Zach attacks need sleep! Zach also is a very good kid and chooses to not put bad things in his body including carbination. Not to often will you see him drinking something carbinated. He is known for never wanted to take part of drinking or anything that can harm you. Zach has a love for people and also when Zach sets his mind to it he accomplishes the world. Zach loves the Bronco's, the #7, He loves the Dwayne Wade & his team Miami Heat, He loves BYU, loves playing sports he plays basketball football & baseball. He is my blonish-red head hazel eyed 5'11 boy


Zach out shooting... dropping his pants. Loves to make us laugh!
This is Zach with my Dad before he passed away. Zach loved Grandpa and watching the Train movies with him. Something All my boys loved to do.

Then my baby Austin. Austin bostin. He is very competative also. Loves to look good and has a way with having his own style.  Austin was my only boy that didn't start in the ICU room after he was born. He loved to be like his brothers and continues to follow in there footsteps. Him & Zach became true little best friends along with being brothers. He grew up with a love of sports and winning. His favorite being basketball. He is a great player and also pitcher in baseball. Austin has a love for being with his friends and making sure they are ok and happy. He likes to invite everyone. Austin has away with luck. He always wins. If it is a drawing it is always him that wins. HE once was at a Jazz game and just happen to walk in at the right moment and was picked to go on the court with the Jazz bear and race little motor bikes. He then ended up on the Delta Centers pictures outside. We drove by and I was like wait a minute go back by the Delta Center I think that is Austin. Sure enough there was my boy. He hopes one day to return to that spot as a player. Austin is independant. He always finds ways to earn money. He has always amazed me. Every year when he recieves his birthday money he has never spent it on himself. Since his birthday is 7 days before Christmas he uses his money and buys his brothers and parents gifts. I have even offered to give him money to help but he would rather me just by him something then to not use his money for everyone else. He has followed sports everyday for his whole life. I once went in and turned his tv off while he was sleeping. Thinking he was asleep no problem. Well with in minutes he was up turning it right back on. Well you say ok thats normal. No it has to be on ESPN Sports. I have even tried changingthe channel and leaving it on. He wakes up and changes it back. He can always tell you whats going on. He loves Labron James and Miami Heat, Loves The Cowboys, BYU sports, Atlanta Braves He loves blue and socks. The boy shops for socks to wear. He loves hats & shoes. He is my Blue eyed blonde hair 5'11 baby.
This is a  few years back but I love this picture. It brings out his baby blues.
 
This is Austin playing his favorite sport. This is his irst year playing Basketball. HIs freshman year he tore his ACLduring football and had to sit out a year. It killed him. He had waited for years to play basketball at West High and ended up missing his first year.
