Die Familie ist zu Hause!

Most of the fam is in town. The Schuller's arrived last saturday. Then Erin and Emily came last night. Ben and Sutton come on the 27th with the Freden's following to Boise. It seems Travis has been kinda bored here. With no guns or anything to blow up he's been playing alot of computer games. :)

Lots has happened since my last post. I went to Leavenworth with the school choir. That was cool. Although the town barely had any german stuff. They would try to be cool by mixing english with german on their signs and stuff. Then sick the whole time with the stomach flu. Do not ask what went on in the b-room during those days.....(hahah).

Basketball is going good, the coaches are playing me more. But I've missed quite a bit of b-ball due to acouple of things. The trip and going on a 3-day ski trip to Schweitzer.

Wednesday the ski-club headed up to Sandpoint, Idaho. We skied/boarded for 2 days and then came home Friday. It was awesome! I have mastered the black and double black diamonds now. I just need to get better on doing cool tricks. Im glad I skipped ball for the trip.

The "Band" is finally in the works. Im in battle of bands with McKenzie, Jaime, Ian, and Luis. We have some very talented musicians and it should be alot of fun. We're doing More than Words by Extreme, Shiver by Coldplay, and Till I Collapse from Eminem. Then another song but we haven't decided on it.

Here's the music video of More Than Words if you did'nt know it yet.

Snow Day!


Boxing.



Just some random photos in my bulldog shorts...



We had a snow day today, booyah! I woke up this morning at 6:30 and looked up on the schools website to see if we had any delays. It said 2 hour delay, ok...sweet, back to bed. Then an hour later mom wakes me up and says, "schools cancelled". ok...sweeet....back to bed.

Today McKenzie and I have been practicing for battle of the bands tryout this wednesday. Its going okay. We've got some funny songs in our selection.

Then around 12 I snuck into CBC and worked out with Martin and Jarred for about an hour.

Wow, went to church Sunday at flippin 9:00. It so much smaller now that the ward has been split. There are only 2 priests and a teacher in my quorom. I like it better smaller though.

Alright...das ist alles. I dont feel like writing as much today. Have a nice Monday.

Think Im going to have a get-to-gether at the spa tonight...

Bis Bald.

Yea yea yeah!

I had a good weekend this "weekend"...(wierd?).

Went to the b-ball game friday night. Pasco lost by 1 point, (49-50) against Eastmont. It was a really good game and we were outplaying them most of the time. At one point we were up by 10 points. Games are way better knowing all the players, plays, and coaches for some reason.

After the game we went to Jarred's house for some talkin, guitar hero, and....dancing.

Saturday morning I had a game at Southridge. We won by 2 points. Got a bucket, and no one scored on me. That low block is MY HOUSE! (running "23", o yeah, its a good zone play).

Now the intense fun starts.

I went to Badger Mountain with Jarred Gonzalez and Mike Wilson. The whole mountain was covered in snow and ice, it was a challenge worthy of a spartan.....(and no we were not that bored). It was fun and we got some sweet pics.


At base camp....Rocking my new Avies!


Barely made it...(my "cotton" jacket was wet, thus I had to take it off to prevent hypothermia???) ;)


Nice pic at the summit. By a random stranger.


Uh oh....We actually went up that trail. It sucked.

After that we met up with Martin Zavala and Tyler Nelson at Toeshi's, this korean/ chinese restaraunt Jarred swears by. It was good, I ordered the sweet and sour chicken, (how traditional..). O, and we tipped the waitress WAY too much. Mike gave her like 10 bucks in coins on accident, I think he liked her. haha

Then Tyler and I went to the b-ball gme at Southridge. We friggen won this time by 2points. The Southridge team is funny, they are all rich, white kids. Then Pasco is all diffrent races. Multi-racial power for the win!

After that we kind of invited ourselves over to Kelsie Carvers house...(woops). It was really fun. We watched Live Free or Die Hard. The one I saw in downtown Chicago this summer by the way. Chillaxed there, talked, danced, ate etc. Alles klar.

Have a nice sunday. The Pasco stake is getting split today. I think I will still be in sixth ward though. We will see... Alright.

Danke Gleichfalls!
