GO FOR THE GOLD!

It's that time of year again- time for the Senior Olympics. My dad looks forward to it every year. Mostly, I think, because it is a great self-esteem boost. How couldn't be? Every year he gets carded- 'You can't be old enough to play!'. Other teams throw fits about the 'young player'. I'm sure he must be the only guy over 60 that still can claim he has a 6 pack, all of his hair, and practically no grey! (Sorry Dad, but if your own daughter can't brag about you, then who can?) Every year his team does really well, often taking the gold medal. These senior olympics are no joke, the players are very competitive. Several of them are former college and NBA players! So good luck Dad- we wish you the best!
By the way, I must mention my Dad entered the individual Senior Olympics in Provo and took the gold. He made 20 of 25 free-throws, and 6 of 6 3 pointers! Good job Dad!

LITTLE SAVANNA

Savanna got to have a sleepover at her Papa and Cilla's house. She had so much fun. I am sure she is making good memories because I still remember my sleepovers at Gigi's house. Thanks Papa & Cilla!

TIRED BABY BOY

Look at your cute grandbaby. He was sooo tired, he fell asleep before he even made it into his crib. Nighty night Chancerpants!

FLASHBACK FRIDAY

Hey fam, remember this fun vacation. We need to do something like this again! We had a blast.

At the luau in Maui.

Yum, yum!

We definitely had fun, maybe too much fun!

Papa's Birthday Fishing Excursion

I treated myself to a birthday present--a fishing trip to Idaho with Del Moody, his son-in-law and my best friend in High School, Clyde Marquez. I visited Clyde 3 weeks ago when Priscilla and I went to Idaho Falls for her 40 year class reunion. He told me then about catching a 9lb fish from Henry's Lake earlier that week. That got me excited enough to suggest I come back in a couple of weeks for my birthday and go after some big fish. As Del Moody is a true blue fisherman (and also has a nice fishing boat), I invited him to go along with me. We ended up not taking his boat as talking with Clyde prior to leaving, he said he felt we would do fine from the shore. We arrived at Henry's Lake around 4:00pm Thursday and rigged our outfits up according to Clyde's instructions. Clyde suggested that the fish usually start biting around 6:00pm so we set our poles in "rock" holders and just keep a watch on them. For two hours nothing happened--not a single bite. We were having a nice chat when Clyde yelled out excitedly about Del's pole heading toward the Lake. We all turned around in time to see the pole and reel airborne into the lake. There was no chance to catch it or retrieve it. Del was not a happy camper losing a $200 fishing pole and reel. He headed back to the truck to get another pole. Not wanting to experience the same fate, I pick up my pole and held it (it was now 5:50pm and "time for fish to bite"). After a few minutes I got a strike and set the hook. As I played the fish in, a fishing pole surfaced with a broken tip (Del's). I reeled in the pole and took hold to find the fish was still on Del's pole. The fish had apparently drug the pole around and eventually crossed my line which was probably 60' out from the shore. Anyway I pulled the fish in and landed him with the help of Clyde. We estimate the fish to be around 13-14lbs.--fat and beautiful. Since this sounds like a wild fish story, I attached the photo of the fish along with me me holding the broken pole.
