Goodbye 10... Welcome 2011....

I believe that Mac's rundown of the past few seasons has been an accurate account of those months. It has been some time since we have written on this post, especially yours truly.

Life has had its ups and downs in 2011 but all together it was a productive and worthwhile time in my life and I assume everyones as well. Don't worry Mac, I do think you live a great life... I am excited for that time to come when ever it does, but until that day comes bring on the experiences!!!

As Mac said, I have been coaching wrestling at Skyline. Those little rascals took 2nd place at the Titan Duels at Olympus. I was extremely proud of them. We had some JV step up and prove themselves. It really has been the highlight of the past few months. I love working with the kids. With that being said, I may not be at Skyline next year. I may have the opportunity to be a coach and teacher at Copper Hills High School. I should be a frontrunner for the position as long as my background check goes through. Ironically enough, my background check shows the trespassing citation that i received that good ole summer of 04'. They have to clear that to approve me to work at the school. I would teach Social studies (American History and World History), Wrestling, Weight Lifting, and Social Dance. Lets hope and pray that everything comes back cleared because the Principle really likes me.

Just incase you don't know, I was accepted to USC! Im officially a Trojan! Fight on! I am perusing a Masters in Teaching. I did a 180 and decided that working in the marketing and advertising field isn't what i wanted. Crazy to think that i am trying to get a masters degree.

As for the women, they come and go. Haven't found one that i want to spend eternity with yet. Maybe that will change in 11'. 2011 could be a great year. Hopefully I'll have a career teaching at Copper Hills and maybe find a great gal.

I agree with Mac, Chase needs to be more social. We still love you buddy and we are here for you when you want to come home :) As for Mac, congrats on air traffic control school. I'll be visiting you in Alaska, hopefully a few times.

Hank's great year has been 2010 and hopefully 2011 gets even better, Kids :) You have to do it Hank, the rest of us want to be uncles for you and your the one in the best position to do it. So keep practicing and pop one in in 2011

The Dawn of a New Year, It's On the Horizon Yo

Well, here we are: Rattlesnake Rapids...That pretty much sums up the Great Summer of Ought 10.

Jaime and I purchased Lagoon season passes along with Hank and Kellee and we all rocked that place.

I was reading over some of our old posts, we've had some good times. But for some reason we stopped writing on this blog of blogs. So I will give a quick re-cap of the last six months that we've missed.

Chase: Still married (a modern day miracle, what with all the hair he has on his feet), still at BYU, and still not ever calling me on the phone just to chat. He did, however, achieve one of our society's markers of becoming a man: he shot his first deer! Booya. I shall be joining him, one day......
Lets see, what else....he took the shell off his truck for a brief while and I thought it looked great. More rugged, more truck-ish. But all that manliness was trumped by the fact that he still has butterfly and dragonfly seat covers from when aunt Jill used to drive that little guy. Haha, that still cracks me up just thinking about that.
There are probably loads of other things I should have mentioned, but those were the highlights.

Hank: That little cuss got married (it must be the Half Year of miracle for us). His lovely wife Kellee is a fireball from the Dirty South, and she is as sweet as sweet tea. I already mentioned the Lagoon passes so we'll move on from that. I don't think Hank got into any fender benders in his car yet, so that's a great step in the right direction.

Jeff: I feel like I'm watching TMZ every time I look at Jeff's Facebook page. Man that guy lives a rock and roll lifestyle. I'm not jealous, I love going to bed at 9 and watching tv on the weekends with Jaime playing Uno. Anyway, back to Jefe. I almost don't want to write anything about this guy cause he's done so much in the last six months that it wouldn't do his life justice, but I'll mention a few things. He is a wrestling coach at Skyline High School (traitor) and I hear his little fighters are kicking butt. He's working on a Masters in Education from USC, and for some reason, he still lives in some lame part of the Salt Lake Valley that I can't remember. He isn't dating anyone as of this publication, but who knows, the day isn't over yet (cross your fingers). Oh yeah, I almost forgot the most important thing, like Chase, Jeff has accomplished something that all American young adult men dream of, buying a motorcycle. Yes, it's a beauty. Ok, that does it for ole' Jefe.

Me: Well, to be honest, after writing about the highlights of my boys, I realized that I haven't done very much. But there are a few things worth mentioning. I'm still at the U, I'll graduate in about 6 months, and I can't wait. Air Traffic Control is waiting for me at the end of August in Anchorage and Jaime and I will be moving up there to take one more step to a career. It'll be wicked scary, but awesome at the same time. I think every married couple should move out of Utah for a little while, to get a taste of life outside the bubble, then come back and raise their kids. That's our plan at least. I finally convinced Jaime to let me buy a truck and I bought a real nice Chevy Avalanche that I named Night Fury, because of his devastating awesome-ness. Thats pretty much it.

I know this was a long post, but I'm glad you made it. You're such a good reader.
