Happy B-Day Mom

My Mom made it another year. Nice work Mom. In all seriousness I want to wish my Mom a Happy Birthday. It was on Mar 10th. We went out and had a nice dinner to celebrate her big day.

I want to tell my Mom thanks for all she does to. She is a big fan of all her Grand kids. She is at most all of their games. I know it takes a lot of effort for her to get to them, usually she is battling traffic, then she has to make a long walk to a court or field, but she is always there. I appreciate it mom.

I think the best thing I could tell you on this day that would mean the most is...Happy Birthday, I love You, In fact I love you as much as you love Facebook! Yep, that much mom, That may be the only thing that will help you understand just how much your boy loves ya.

Happy Birthday Ambur

Happy Birthday hun. Your #1 in my book too.

Most people tell me how easy I have it and how I get to do whatever I want, all I can say is, you have no idea what goes on behind closed doors and how she kicks my ass. this picture is just a glimpse of how I really get treated.

Love ya  Am!

Jr Jazz Tourny (Our own March Madness)

 The last week of February we took our 3rd grade Dawgs team and entered them in a Jr Jazz Tournament that went through the first week of March. If you were an AAU team they asked you to play up an age. So we entered in the 4th grade division. This allowed us to pick up a little help. Or some big help depending on how you look at it. Caden's buddy Luke Tueller played with us. Caden loved being able to play on a team with him.

 The very first game we walked in and saw Shawn Bradley. A former 7'6'' player from the NBA. We played his team (from Murray)who had his kid and one other giant. But we were able to beat them.

 We then played a team from Rose Park we beat also.

 Cody Nixon bringing ball up.

 Coach Blackwell taking a timeout.

 Cody and Kai on sideline. Cody was trying to be a tough guy.

 Luke at free throw line.

 Caden decided to wear Jake's #0 jersey for good luck. He thinks it helped him.

 This was us against the team from Bingham that beat us. I gave the boys crap for letting a team who had a kid with poke a dot socks beat them.

The boys played great. Out of 16 teams we made it to the final 4. We ran into a real good team that were on fire against us. But we were sure proud of the way the boys played and to be able to compete against the older kids.

St George

 A few weekends back we got invited to head down to St George with some friends from the neighborhood. We had a lot going on but decided it was a nice break we could al use. We got down there around 11:00 to find a house full of sleeping people. I guess thats what middle age people do on vacation, go to bed by 11:00. Not what i'm use to. But saturday we got up and us guys went out and rode in the sand. Fun fun stuff.

 Me and Luke rode in the Razor.

 I guess I was the designated old man cause I got the easy ride.

 Hanging out at the house.

 The back yard was a kids dream. They played basketball all day. Then into the night.

Once the kids were in bed us dads had to make a quick drive to Nevada to see if the weather was as nice down there as we heard it was.

 You have already seen a few pictures from our night. But here are a few more. Above is Quinn getting ready to offer his fine wearing hat friend a drink. Below is a picture of what 2 dudes look like when they have a buddy that just won't leave.

       

This was all I had to show from the trip to Mesquite. An old hat and crazy kid. But I feel pretty good about it.

It as a great trip. Thanks to our friends for dragging us down there. And thanks to the Burt's for having such a sweet house and sharing it.

Who Does It Better?

Burt Brothers of course. Now servicing your "Jazzy" needs across the Wasatch front! You should've seen the old lady Jason took out to take over this Jazzy. Look at those 2 henchman in the back ground.

Fate

Some would say a Casino is what made these men cross paths on this night, not me, I would argue it was clearly fate bringing 2 men together who share an incredible sense of fashion for head wear.

Sorry For Party Rockin

Again, a picture can say a thousand words. This may very well be my new favorite picture of all time. Any man who is Rockin an Elephant hat while grabbing an energy drink is ready to party.

We have been very busy with life and have a boat load to catch up on. So stay tuned. More to come.
