Sammy's

While we were in Utah celebrating Nic's Birthday- we went to a place called Sammy's. Mike had been there before and kept telling me about these amazing shakes. They add real pie pieces to your shake. YUMMY!!! It was the best shake I have ever had. I highly recommend going there if you are in the Provo area. They will open one in Rexberg next month.

Happy Birthday Nic

23 years ago we were blessed with the sweetest little baby boy. He was so eager to enter the world that he was 6 weeks early. Nic only weighed 3lb. 11 oz. Today he is still the sweetest. Nic we love you so much and are so proud of all that you have accomplished- Football, Baseball, Graduation, Mission, and now College. Thank you for being a great older brother to Matt and Tyler. Happy Birthday Nic.

Golf Tournament

On Friday we played in a golf tournament, at The Hermitage. It was sponsored by Lowe's and benefited the "Tennessee Coalition for Breast Cancer Awareness. " The temperatures here in Nashville have been well over 98 degrees. Add the humidity and most days it's about 108. We woke up to the sound of thunder and questioned if we would play. Well- we did... we played in the rain, in the heat, and in the sun. We didn't complain because we were playing with great friends and for a great cause. Thanks Joe and Amy Cottrell for such a great day.

Amy

Nic and Amy have been dating for several months. We think that she is absolutely wonderful. She is funny and sweet and perfect for Nic. In the short time that we have known her we love everything about her. She recently visited Nashville for the first time. We took her out on the boat and tried to get her to wake board. We went to hear friends sing at the Listening Room. The highlight of the trip is that we introduced her to "Sweet Cece's" a great yogurt place here. We tried to teach her to golf, but the best part is that she likes the Twilight Movies and we made Mike and Nic sit thru Eclipse.

Chan Chan

My sweet Niece Chandler will be a Senior this year. She is an amazing Volleyball player. It really helps that she is over 6 ft. tall. She has all ready had several colleges looking at her, and her parent's are very happy to announce that she just signed on at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton. It is a Division One school in the Sun Belt Conference. She also started playing beach volleyball this summer. Way to go Chan !!
