Basketball

All three boys played basketball this year. Tyler and Ryan played in a different league than Jacob so theirs started in December and finished today. Jacobs just started last week and we go until March. So, only two weeks did we attend 3 games in ONE day! Tyler and Ryan did awesome this year, both scored baskets and had lots of fun. Jacobs team is so fun to watch! They are just learning the game and do some of the funniest moves! Especially my son! I think he is using a few of his wrestling techniques to block the other team! But, he is very, very excited about his jersey! So, a little more basketball, then Jacob starts soccer in March then all three play baseball! I am also so proud of Tyler! He tried out for a competitive travel baseball team and made the team!! So, he is not playing soccer this year but playing the travel team (tournaments are once a month) and then little league too. He loves athletics and not only playing the game but being a part of a team. I am so proud of all three of my boys! You know I am always there rooting you on!

I haven't posted in awhile! FB is driving me crazy!!! So, I thought I would post these pics of my two older boys. Tyler earned the artist Webelo pin and Ryan earned his Wolf! Earning the Wolf is a big deal. He now only has the acheivements to earn until he advances on to a Bear in August. I love the scouting program, it teaches the boys so much and prepares them so much for life. Thanks to Justin and Diana for helping Tyler and Ryan!

This past Friday we headed up to Salt Lake City for the Monster Trucks and Motocross show! We had so much fun!! We got into Salt Lake City just as it started to snow. We shopped in a few stores, grabbed some dinner and when we walked outside, there was already about 4 inches on the ground. We got settled in the hotel and when we woke up the next morning there were about 6 inches. (And we were only downtown!) The mountains got blasted! The boys liked it, but all three stated how happy they are that we live in a place that doesn't snow much. I think memories of shoveling quickly came to their minds from living up there for two years!! Saturday morning we woke up, found a place to eat breakfast and headed for the E Center. The boys were so excited they could barely handle it! We had pit passes so we got to go in 2 hours before the show started. All three boys got autographs from all 6 of the monster truck drivers and all 8 of the motocross riders. They even got to ride in a monster truck!! Also in the pit was a WWF star. He hosts a WWF show on Monday nights. I even got to put on the crown cause he told the boys I was a cool mom! So, after two hours hanging out with all the riders and drivers, we ran to the car to put all our souvenirs (and we had alot!) away and then got to our seats. We had awesome seats smack in the middle of the E Center and only up 10 rows! Our seats were perfect! The monster truck drivers raced, the motocross riders freestyled over a HUGE jump and then some local truck drivers came and raced around the track. That was funny! Overall, the show was great! All three boys had such a great time and want to go back up north for the Monster Jam in February. We haven't decided if we will go to that or head to Las Vegas for the freestlye motocross. The boys liked the Monster Trucks but they loved it when the motocross riders jumped, flipped, did no handers and all sorts of tricks over the jump, which did I already say was HUGE???!!! It was such a fun time for the two days we were gone but boy was it cold! It was nice to get back to our warm 45 degree weather! hahaha
