POTD - Utah Team Camp

L has the awesome opportunity to play on the JV team for Bountiful at the Utah Team Camp. Great experience and opportunity to learn how to bump with the big boys.

POTD - Good Eats!

Tonight's dinner was talapia tacos and homemade salsa. Mmmm. Notice how I said "was"? There aren't any leftovers tonight.

Rendezvous at the Zoo

Our adventures today took us to see the new Rocky Shores exhibit at the Hogle Zoo.  We spent the morning FINALLY cleaning out the garage.  Now I know why we kept putting it off for so long.  It really wasn't much fun, but it is so nice to have it done.

We didn't get to the zoo until around 5:00 tonight, but that seemed to be the perfect time to go.  There were hardly any people left and the temperature was beginning to cool off.

The only drawback to going so late, seemed to be that the animals had all had a busy day and were worn out.  We didn't get to see Rizzo, the new polar bear, because she had been showing off for the past two hours and had decided to go inside and rest for a while.  It seemed like the grizzlies were feeling the same way.

The eagles were down low and looking proud as ever.

The elephants were active (except Suri, the baby).  It was their dinner time and they were munching down.

Suri didn't care, she was too tired to think about dinner.

The cats were ready for their catnap.

The primates were all snuggled down.

And, the seals were sunbathing.

But, there were still several animals willing to put on a show for us.

And, best of all, I finally got the picture that I have been imagining all winter when I watch L play basketball.  His arm span is so wide, that all I can think about is this shot with him measuring up with the gorillas.  They still have a little bit on him, but probably not for too long.

After the zoo, we finished off the day with dinner at The Pie.  Good day, Trusty family!

POTD - A Visitor

Ron and I were sitting out back this morning and noticed this guy hanging around.  He sat with us for quite a while and even let me walk up pretty close to take his picture.  We saw a bunch of them living in the cemetery last year and wondered if he was looking for someplace quiet and away from the Memorial Day decorating action.

Memorial Tournament 2012

Friday and Saturday were spent at another tournament. Friday night (9:00 game AGAIN) was a nice win over Dynamite.  Saturday was a loss to Silverwolves, a big win against the Bulldawgs and a loss to Cache  Valley Elite.  The second half of the last game, the boys seemed to run out of gas.  Three games with only seven players in a day was hard to do.  

POTD - UMA Tour

As part of work, I attend events for the Utah Manufacturers' Association. Today we toured the Davis County Clipper/Spectrum Press. Very interesting.

POTD - Date Night

I love basketball practice! Date night dinner at Trio. Sitting outside and enjoying the flowers next to our table.

POTD - Driving Home

Another weekend in Boise for basketball. Super fun weekend. The only thing that would make it better would be if I didn't have to sit in this car for so blasted long! I am maxed out and we are just hitting Ogden. And...I have a trip to Logan to look forward to in the morning. Blah!

POTD - The Green

PNR vs the Burley Greens. Go PNR!

POTD - On the Road Again

Boise...here we come!

VOTD - Open Court

L is working out at the high school with the coaches in an open court forum three times a week. This is in addition to three SPARQ sessions and a PNR practice or two. We watched last night and tonight but it is starting to cut into my bed time!

POTD - Boise Idaho Prep

A few weekends ago, we ventured to the Great North to watch L in one round of the Idaho Prep tournament.  They won 3 out of 4 games, but ended losing the championship game.  This round was with his Utah Hoops team.  We will be back there this weekend with the Pump N Run boys.  I'm excited!

Happy Easter!!!
