High School Football

So Jake has decided to coach the high school football team this season with two of his brothers. All three of them went to school here at Bonneville, played football here, and graduated from here. This week is what they like to call "Hell Week" so the boys are working two-a-days which means that Jake is also working two-a-days on the field and trying to fit his real job in between! It's gonna be a great season for the Lakers' defense headed up by three Afuvai's! Go Bonneville!

Our New Favorite Girl

This is our new favorite niece Prita. She got to spend the weekend with us and it was so fun to have her around. Of course she cried when we left the house or told her she had to stay outside. And that whining and petite howling tugged on our heart strings every time. She is a pure bred Rottweiler and is the prettiest thing ever. She's also mostly deaf, responding to only high pitched noises which she can't exactly place. So I spent the weekend kneeling down to get her to recognize me, or running after her when she chased little boys on their bikes down the street. I stayed home with her one day and she wasn't too interested in playing with me but rather waited by the gate all day long for Jake to come home. She knows who loves her! It sure teaches you something when you have to pay special attention to someone in order to get them to understand you- instead of yelling at the or commanding them to listen to you. She was such a joy to have around and we ended up with dog-kisses and dirty shirts every day- and it was totally worth it!
