El Jardin (The Garden)

Brit and I started our Garden a few weeks ago. With all of the rain and cold temps lately it has been slow going, but I think this week things are going to change for the better as the mercury should start climbing.
Although it has been nice not having to water anything but I am no doubt ready for summer and better weather. I really enjoy working in the yard (I think I got it from my mom) and I hope our sweat yields many fruits (Or Veggies).
Here is a list and some pics of what we have planted.

Cilantro
Spinach
Peppers
Watermelon
Tomatoes
Peas
Beans
Carrots
Etc.




























Can't wait to go outside and pick Vegetables out of our own Garden.

And Brit can't wait to use Ziccinis to make Zuccini Bread.

Las Vegas

Brit and I went to Las Vegas this past weekend. The weather was awesome and we had a great time. We arrived down there Thursday night pretty late. My brother in law (Trav) and I went on a Mtn bike ride in St George Friday morning and we had a great time. Later int he day we sat around the pool then showered and went out to dinner with Travs parents to Pizza Factory. We met up with Alyssa (Brits cousin) for dinner too. We ate and had a wonderful time. We had some custard and hit the sack for the night.

Here is Brit in front of the Bellagio.

Beautiful Brit



The Las Vegas Supercross was Saturday night Vegas. It was a great race and it was close down to the end. Gotta love Supercross!

The Champion, Ryan Villopoto

Pink was on hand too. She is married to one of the Teams owners. (Carey Hart, Hart and Huntington)


Here is a video of Brit at the Bellagio fountain show.

Here is video of part of the race, James Stewart and Kevin Windham jumping a very tricky section.

We had a great time and it was fun to go on a little vacation in the sun with my wifey.


Ben forgot to add the most important part of the supercross! :) Yes Villopoto did win the whole supercross, but we can't forget about Chad Reed who won that night! He has been my favorite since I began watching moto races. Ben thinks I just like him because Reed and Stewart are enemies and Stewart is Ben's favorite, but that is not true!

The picture is a little blurry, but this is Chad Reed before the race.
