Mighty Brady or Mighty Titans of Tones

I definitely work with a lot of talented people including a few that are fantastic musicians. A couple weekends ago, we were able to see Brady and his band, the Mighty Titans of Tone play at the New Orleans in Pioneer Square. There were really great and it was super fun to see Brady jamming. I also couldn't help but think, "I bet Brady is pretty good at Guitar Hero."















We enjoyed hearing you play Brady! Next time we might take a chance and bust out our dance moves!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day to you all! I gave my niece, Addi, her Valentine's Day present a little early since I wasn't going to see her on February 14th. Below is a picture of her with one her presents from PP (yes, that's what she calls me . . its a long story).

Vegas Volleyball!

We are here in Las Vegas to watch my cousin, Chelsie and her team play in the 23rd Annual Las Vegas Classic. For the past several years, we have attended this tournament as the older "V" sisters, Krystie and Brandie, have played in it, but this year is Chel's turn.

Chel and her bestie, Sissy (her "real" name is Chelsea too)


Chel blocking! ... She's #73


Chel going for a dig!


Chel did not have one service error!



Chel is a super smart player on the court!

Chel, you were a super star this weekend. We enjoyed seeing and watching you! More pictures to come soon!

CWU Volleyball Banquet

Last weekend we traveled over to Ellensberg for my cousin, Brandie's volleyball banquet. Brandie had an awesome season winning several awards. She is still awaiting her 1st Team All American Award, which hasn't arrived yet . . .but, here is a picture of all the hardware she picked up that night!


We took her a cookie bouquet, which was a huge hit with not only Bran but her teammates! YUM!














It was fun to see all the ladies dressed up as we are used to seeing them in uniform!

I also took some video on my small camera (that is shaky and all over the place) that I will upload soon. Fell free to also check out Mom's site . . . she has uploaded pictures from Bran's Freshmen and Sophomore years.

We got belayed!

My awesome boss, Alex, set up a fun event for our team (aka Team Converse) to go rock climbing this afternoon. We had so much fun and I'm sure we'll be paying the price tomorrow, but it was definitely worth it! We all had a blast . . . thank you Alex (and Projectline) for setting up this fun outing for Team Converse! Ann, I'm sorry you weren't able to join us . . . we missed you!!

T-Fab and Diva-D climbing like pros!


Adventurous Alex trying the auto belay thingy!


Alex and I climbing like Spiderman!
"Spiderman, Spiderman, Does whatever a spider can Spins a web, any size, Catches thieves just like flies Look Out! Here comes the Spiderman."

Watch out down there, Tena and I are coming down! Down, down, down!
