We're having a baby!

Sara & I found out last week that we are pregnant! We are due to have a baby join family around July 28th. We are extremely excited about it! I guess the saying for us goes, "First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the dog, then comes the baby in the baby carriage." Sara & I feel Western is an amazing place to raise a baby at and couldn't think of a better community to help us feel cared for & safe with a little one. Talk about on site baby-sitters too! We are excited to look to next year & everything that it will bring. 

I coach 2 teams here at Western during basketball season. I am the Head JV Coach & a Varsity Assistant. Currently both teams are 4-0 & our varsity team is currenlty ranked #1 in state at the 2A level. Saturday we had a monumental game vs #1 ranked (3A) Regis that went to 3 overtimes. It ended in a 4 point win for us and was an extremely emotional game. Consequently in the game, our star shooting guard broke his wrist in the 1st quarter and will be out 4-6 weeks. It was a huge downer for our team, but it will simply just cause the guys to unify even more & rely on each other.
