Hope this blooms by Easter

 I picked an Easter Lilly that was all buds so I could enjoy the smell of every bloom.

I hope I awake on Easter morn and have the joy of it blooming.  Wouldn't that be a treat!

LOVE THIS PICTURE

Logan went with the Westlake basketball team to cheer on the Varsity team in the state playoffs.  It was held at Weber State in Ogden.  My sisters' daughter attends school there.  She met him at the game with Popeye's Chicken. She is such a dear.  Logan loves Popeye's Chicken and we can't get it here in Utah.  The only Popeye's Chicken is on the military base up north.  Look how absolutely cute they both are.  I smile ever time look at this picture.

A funny thing happened at work

 

 

Basketball season is over and Logan is starting track and field.  He had the paperwork filled out and I took it up to my friend Sharon's office to get him cleared to try out.  This was to avoid the line after school, plus she is my really good friend.  While I was in her office waiting for her to get off the phone I sat down on a chair like this at the side of her desk.  Mike, the student council adviser was standing also in her office and he was facing me as he was standing there waiting. 
I spied a Butterfinger candy wrapper on the floor so I said to myself I will roll my chair forward and lean down and pick that up and put it in the trash.  As I went to roll the chair forward it tipped and I crashed to the floor.  The chair fell on top of me.  I looked up and Mike was trying not to laugh.  I burst out laughing got up and got back on my chair and Sharon was cracking up while still on the phone.  It was hilarious. 

Jake + UVU track team = not so good

This was the last year for UVU to compete in the Great West Conference.  They have won the first place title 2 years and a row and was heading for a 3-peat.

Many things went wrong at this track meet.  I will list them as follows:

1. A good runner that would have scored points would not go because he would have to compete on Sunday and he has strong beliefs that that is wrong.

2. A whole team did not show up, like a whole school, and then that meant that the first 6 runners in scored not the first 8. 

3. On Premlims on Saturday for the 400, Jakes best race, he was pushed out on the curve and was not able to compete Sunday in the finals.

4. The 4 x 400 team that Jake is always run on and medaled the past 3 years did not finish.

5.  Because the 4 x 400 team did not finish the UVU track team lost the meat by 3 points to Houston Baptist.

Kim gently reminded us that many a meet is won or lost on the last race, the 4 x 400.  In fact it was won on that same race winning last year.  

The details of the 4 x 400 race are so sad.  Jake had the first leg and ran his 400 so well, passed off the baton and the second boy took off also running well.  He passed the baton to runner number 3 and on the back curve as he was heading around his ankle dislocated and he went down.  That my friends results in a DNF.  It breaks my heart.
