Brothers

Our First Trip to Fort Collins

 Clearly, my boys were all really excited to be taking a picture first thing in the morning.

 Our good friend from our old coaching days at Georgia Southern, Jeff Beckles, was in town also for the weekend.

 As we were looking at houses, we were able to watch the sunset over the mountain.  Beautiful!

 Colorado State's stadium.  It sits right at the foothills of the mountain.

 "A" for Aggies, which was Colorado State's mascot back when they were an agricultural college.

 I can't remember what Tyson called this place, but it was absolutely stunning, as you can tell by the pictures.

 You could see out over the city of Fort Collins.

 We climbed to the top of this little mountain, and Tyson and I were petrified that the boys would fall off.  Notice the death grip that Tyson has on the boys.  Hahaha.

 "I'm the king of the mountain!"

 The football office

 This is what Tyson calls "the mystery machine."  When they first moved to Colorado, all 5 of the new coaches rode around in this thing together.  Hahaha!

 Cam the Ram

 Shooting hoops at the Colorado State basketball arena.

 The snow was really starting to fall as we got to Denver Sunday night.

 And this is what it looked like at our hotel Monday morning.  The boys were so excited!

The big boys and I flew out to Colorado this past weekend to visit Tyson in Fort Collins for the first time.  We had a few things on the agenda between the 4 of us: 1) find a house, 2) hike up a mountain, 3) play basketball on Colorado State's gym floor, 3) and SEE THE SNOW!  And we almost accomplished all of that!  (We're still working on the house part...it's a tough market out there!) and then some!  We also got to go to Tyson's office and watch spring mat drills, meet the coaches, and get a little workout in with some of the coaches for the Summers boys. :)

It was a very busy weekend and the kids and I are now sick as dogs, but I'm so glad we got to go.  The boys seem really excited about the move and they were so happy to see their Daddy. :)

Tyson Finally Came Home!!

It had been a little over 3 weeks since we had seen Tyson, and he finally came home this past weekend!  It was the absolute best weekend we've had in a long time...maybe ever.  As you can tell from the smiles above, my boys were in Heaven having their Daddy home.  He got to see them both play ball, and they both showed out for him.  It was such a great weekend!

Super Bowl Sunday

 A little pregame warm up...Sno Cones!

Jake's eyes were closed, so I cropped him out.  It was just too cute of a pic of my little two. 

 Dance party on the coffee table before kick off.  Walker was bustin' some serious moves.

 Jake dances like his daddy. Hahaha!

While the rest of America was enjoying their Super Bowl parties, the Summers boys and their mama were stuck at home in quarantine.  Anderson woke up yesterday with pink eye and then came down with the stomach virus later that night, so we played it safe and stayed home.  Anderson looks really sick in these pictures, right?  Hahaha!

Since the boys have been introduced to Madden (the NFL game on Wii and PlayStation), they are HUGE NFL football fans.  It's ridiculous how much they know about the NFL- they can tell you all about the teams, players, coaches, etc- things I have no idea about since I follow college football and not the NFL.  Anyways, they have been super pumped about this game.  For the past week, they've been playing the Seahawks versus the Patriots trying to see how this game would play out.  Hahaha.  I love it.
