First blog!

Well this is my first blog sooooo here we go!
Just updating on a busy few weeks! I will start with Jason.

Jason is 17 years old but is convinced he is really 21. He enjoys football, basketball, swimming, four-wheeling, movies, dinners, anything sports-oriented and likes naps. He is currently going to Cottonwood High school and has a 3.6 grade point average. He is very dedicated to his homework and grades and always keeps them about a 3.5. He is currently doing football work-outs which are pretty vigorous because he has come home pretty sore a few times and talks about how the coach keeps them in tip-top shape. Cottonwood is always in the top three teams in the state when it comes to football and I guess its the work-out that gets the credit. Jason is dating a really sweet girl named Gabi. She is pretty tall and she has a great personality. She is also very pretty! I guess thats a major reason why he likes her. She hangs out mostly on weekends, but once in a while they sneak a week-day in for some down-time. They usually just get dinner and a movie and hang out. They are both mellow and I don't mind that one bit! Other than that I am not to sure what else to tell ya about Jason... he is excited for summer (but who isn't) and he is excited to not be in school anymore!

I am doing pretty good. I am 23 yrs old, I work as a youth counselor for the Boys & Girls Club of Murray. My job pretty much consumes most of my life ha ha. I am always working or working on work related things or I am in comatose on the couch from a long day at work! I love it though. I love the kids I get to work with every day. I don't think I will be leaving that job for a long long long time. I have been pulling triple duty because my boss is out on maternity leave, one of our staff quit so that leaves me and my co-worker to cover for 2 missing people. He is a tech staff so he is usually in the lab. Sooo I have been a "girls group" leader "boys group" leader "youth for unity" leader "street smarts" leader "Keystone" leader "Triple Play" Leader and acting as the Director of the teen center. I also am the basketball leagues coach (we took second by the way) so its been an extremely busy month!
I also have been keeping pretty active with volleyball. I play in a league in Lehi and right now we are undefeated. So its been pretty fun! I play middle blocker (which I really hate, I have always played Opposite/Right Side hitter) but I can hold my own and I am pretty good at blocking. :)
I have a wonderful girlfriend that I have been dating for two months. Her name is Kae. She plays volleyball with me (or I play volleyball with her) and we really enjoy it. She lives in Provo so there is a lot of commuting to see each other but I don't mind at all. I love it! :-)

We just got a dog. His name is Maximus Prime. He is soooo funny. He is a medium/small dog. Border Collie/Australian Shepard mix. He knows "Sit", "stay", "roll over", "knuckles", and you can leave a treat on his snout and he won't try to eat it til you give him permission. He is usually well behaved. He gets a little attitude once in a while, but what dog doesn't. He likes naps and he likes movies. If he doesn't like the movie your watching he won't watch it.

So that is just a little about us and what we have been up to! More to come soon.......
