Congratulations, Tori!!!

Just wanted to let everyone know that Tori made the Boise High Varsity Basketball team for the summer league. This is a big accomplishment for her and she has worked hard the last couple of months to get ready for Thursday's tryouts. To say that she was excited when she received the phone call Thursday night is an understatement. She was flying high for several hours. They have their first practice on Monday and the first league game is on Wednesday6/4. They have a tournament every weekend in June, Nampa 6/6-7, Pocatello 6/13-14, Portland 6/19-22 and they are doing a retreat on the Oregon coast. There is also a big tournament the end of July in San Diego. Their camp runs for two weeks in June as well. They will do the BB camp in the day and then have league games at night. She is going to be one very busy girl for the first part of the summer, but it will keep her out of trouble. This doesn't necessarily ensure that she will make the varsity team in October, but if she works hard this summer she stands a very good shot at it.

Congratulations, Tori, I know how much this meant to you and we are very proud of you. We love you lots.........XOXOXO

This is the last week of school and Alex is counting the days. I'm not sure what all he has planned for the summer but I'm sure it will involve computers, Xbox and friends.

...this is the message I got on Monday as I jumped in. Monday was my birthday, another milestone day.  One that I have been dreading for weeks.  Not sure why this one is so hard to swallow.   For weeks I have been feeling like the crocodile from Peter Pan...Tick-Tock, Tick-Tock.  The days just tick away. Birthday's are interesting, there is a build up as the day gets closer adding to the excitement (or dread).  Then the alarm goes off on the "BIG" day and you wake up just like any other day.  The same person, nothing feels different.  If it wasn't for the wrinkles you see in the mirror you wouldn't know you were any older. It isn't until you mentally do the math in your head and realize that you're starting a new decade of your life.  60 is the new 30, right!?! We need to not dwell on the years that have past, we should look forward to the years ahead of us, all the new adventures to be had, people to meet, life left to experience. So let's not

Four years ago, we bought Dana a snow blower for Christmas.  He never took it out of the box.  Claimed that it would be too noisy for the neighbors at the time of the morning that he like to shovel, which is usually around 6:00am.  I could never figure out if he really did like to shovel the snow or if he just wasn't sure about putting it together.  I really should have had Home Depot do that for us. In the fall, he decide to unpack it and see about putting it together.  He claimed that you need to have an engineering degree to put it together.  Well the heavy snow came and in the mist of both of us shoveling and not getting any where.  Paul, our neighbor, was out working on his driveway, so Dana told him if he helped him carry upstairs and got it going he could use it.  He was all for it.  They carried it up and by the time Dana got back from getting gasoline, Paul had it running. Need I say Dana feel in love with the snow blower.  Did several of the neighbors driveways
