Junior Jazz Basketball

 We were excited that Ryan could be in basketball this year.  He signed up to play with a couple of kids from our new ward and his good buddy from our old one.  They had a long season with practices starting in November and they finished with their last game on February 2nd.  He really enjoyed getting to run around and play on Saturday mornings.  Ryan is really good at guarding, he loves to do that more than handle the ball.
 At this age in Junior Jazz, they give the five kids who are playing a colored wrist band.  That way they know who to guard and it organizes the game a little bit.  Ryan played on a First/Second grade team.  Since he's a super young second grader, that was a good fit for him.







 The season came with two tickets to a Jazz game on a particular night.  I bought Evan an extra ticket and Colin took the boys out to the game.  They really loved it.
 Here's Ryan on the last day with his trophy.

Spode Dish Factory

I went with a few friends on a mommy-field trip to the Spode Dish factory in Malaysia.  We had the best time and it was an experience I won't soon forget.  We met at Becky's in the morning and got our three car caravan ready to go.  We said a prayer, did a cheer and were off at about 9 am.  We crossed the border without any issues (except for toll top-up cards) and hit the road.  In about an hour we arrived at this little side-of-the-road pottery market.  It was typical of a third-world place. True Outlet shopping.  There was a nice aluminum roof and some big fans to keep us cool.  The plates were very dusty from being outside so long but there were so many lovely treasures.  We all had a good time just wandering around searching for new dishes. I was looking for a set of every-day dishes and anything else was a bonus in my mind.  Spode is a European brand that outsources production to Malaysia.  Their retail cost is pretty high...

Skiing

This winter has been AWFUL so far.  I just KNEW it would be too!  We've had two very mild winters back to back and I knew that meant we would have to pay for it this year.   The inversion has been so bad this year that since Christmas it's been above 30 degrees like 3 or 4 times!!! Most days, it's been in the teens or lower.  I've been substituting for a teacher who was on maternity leave since December 10th.  So many inside recess days, I thought I was going to lose my mind.   My long-term job ended on Friday and with Martin Luther King Junior day on Monday, I just really wanted to get out of the inversion.  I tried to convince Colin to go to Las Vegas with me but we decided that wasn't very realistic, still cold there too.   Then I proposed skiing and we both decided it would be really fun to take the boys!  I was really pretty nervous about teaching both of the boys but the day was so amazing I couldn't even believe it.  ...
