Carlos 9th Birthday

For Carlos's 9th birthday we took him and his friends to Outer Limits. They played the games and ran free in the big toy. He had a great time and enjoyed all the great gifts his friends brought him. He is an easy kid and just likes to be friendly and caring all the time. Of course he does have those days but don't we all. He is a great kid and so thoughtful. Love that Carlos.

Carlos has this game figured out. If he uses his arms and hands he can get high score everytime and win lots of tickets. That smart boy.

All Carlos' friends at Outer Limits. This is a fun zone place in Pocatello. It's a great place to let the kids run wild in the winter.

Carlos with all his buddies at home getting ready to open up all the grat gifts he received. He really does have a great bunch of friends.

Carlos with all his gifts. He said he got everything plus some what he wanted for his birthday. His friends and family were quite generous. Thank you to all.

Carlos this year wanted cupcakes. I made German Chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese filling. He loved it and here he is making a wish and blowing out the candles. My baby is 9 years old. This makes me sad but lucky to have the three great children I do have.

Carson 1st Basketball Game

The cheer to begin the game. Go Broncos!!!

Carson getting in position. He likes basketball almost as much as soccer.

Jarom hurt pretty bad on the court. He went after a loose ball and hit the wall pretty good. He fractured both bones in his arm. They didn't say if surgery was needed but at 8pm we went to wish him better and he was at an ISU game. Boy, Boys bounce back quickly.

Being ready. I noticed Carson's team played most of the game in zone defense. A great game and the boys work well together.

This is a blurry picture but had such great form I wanted to post it.

Carson getting a pass. They said he traveled but it was a great shot. It went in but didn't count.

Carson getting ready for a pass after a free throw shot. This was a pretty intense game and an emotional one too. They did great but lost 25-29. A great game for their first game and without their tallest and great friend, Jarom. He broke his arm in two places in the first 10 minutes of the game. He is out the rest of the season. Bummer. I did look up the teams ratings from last year. Carson did not play with this team. He was on the Cougars who are no longer. They had not won one game in 3 year. The Broncos were 2 and 5. At least they won 2 games. I hope this year they can win a few more.
