Basketball season is over! They got their first "W" on the last game of the season. A nice note to go out on. Jacob is in full swing rugby right now and really enjoying it. They have a pretty good team and he is showing amazing talent out on the field even though he has never played. He is now gearing up for hunting season and has already submitted an application for a job...will be cool to see where he lands.
Joseph is loving his independence and driving. The school has hired a new football coach and things are gearing up on that front! He is still keeping his options open but I hope he plays, just to be involved with something.
We still see Ben around 1-2 times a week...Sundays he always comes over for laundry :-).
On Valentine's Day Jacob showed up at my work at lunch and told me I had the rest of the day off (he had coordinated it with my boss). He took me out to lunch. He considered bowling or shooting pool but hard with a broken wrist, so we went shopping. Always love hanging out with my boys! Joseph brought me candy and flower later in the day!!!
Speaking of broken wrist, doc says it is healing nicely...I think it is taking longer than normal but I am also 10 years older than the last broken bone.
The ground is starting to thaw and I am very happy about it! JR is beginning to think about his summer and hiking trips. He hopes to go to Honduras in May.
This past weekend I went to Salt Lake (I love the shopping there) to watch a Rugby tourney Jacob was in. Wet and cold. Those guys were shivering. Learning more about Rugby but a lot of nuances to the sport.
Jacob leaves tomorrow for a week with friends (no parents) in Cancun. He ironically arrives on his 18th birthday. My boy is an adult!!!
Ben just recently got back from a long weekend in Texas - visiting my mom and they also saw some cousins in Austin.
Just a few pictures
