The Greatest Accomplishment of My Life!

Tiffany and I went to Pocatello last weekend and while we were down there we played the Ross Park disc golf course. Now some of you may think that disc golf (aka "Frisbee" golf) is just a leisure sport like croquette, but it's actually a fast growing sport with professional organizations, tournaments, and honest to goodness people who make a living at it. Now I am not one of those people, but I do own a couple hundred dollars worth of special discs for the sport and I have been accused of being "obsessed". This accusation is not true by the way...whatever the case is, on hole number five I stood at the tee and pulled out my fastest disc: the Excalibur! There were large trees blocking my view of the pin which was 265 feet away. Undaunted, I put a slight angle on the release of my drive knowing that the disc would bank around the trees and hopefully land near the hole (it's called a "hyzer" in disc golf lingo). I released the disc with a fast forehand drive, the disc banked around the trees as intended, and then I heard a telltale "clang". It was at that moment that I knew I had my first hole in one! The best part, Tiffany was there to witness it so nobody can call me a liar. Below is a picture at the pin, you can still see the disc in the basket.

Apartments have been rented

FYI
The apartments have been rented out, thanks anyway. Here are some more cute pictures

A Quick Message from Our Sponsor

OK, so you have all been enjoying high quality social networking out here on Nick and Tiff's Blog for over a year now absolutely free of charge, but posting all of the cute pictures of Riley was really just a draw for advertising purposes, kinda manipilative I know, but here's the deal. We own/manage a cute yellow fourplex near Tautphus park in Idaho Falls and we have a unit available for rent. We will also have another unit available for rent in mid October. Here is the description:

I'm just kidding, our blog doesn't exist for the sole purpose of advertising, but I figured it was a good place to get the word out. They really are nice apartments, we keep them in good repair and actually used to live in one of the units ourselves. If you are interested in the apartments, or know somebody who may be, give Nick a call at 208-360-0624. Thanks,

Riley likes anything that goes "vroom vroom". Here he is trying to drive grandpa's corvette:

I am trying to figure out how to get my text to line up right, so here are some random pictures:

1) Picture 1, Riley on a "vroom vroom"



2) Picture 2, Riley pushing a "vroom vroom"

I don't know what I am doing wrong, but I can't get the captions to line up with my pictures!! How frustrating!

We have been super busy the last few weeks! We have been gone doing family stuff, fixing more sprinklers, taking swimming lessons, and cleaning the apartments. About three weeks ago we went to Raging Waters in Utah for a family reunion, two weekends ago we went hiking with my dad, and brother. Sadly no one made it to the top of the mountain we had planned to sumit. Then last weekend we went to the cabin again. Last week we had a tenant move out, and so far I have spent 15 hours cleaning! Which in my book is way too much. And for the past four weeks I took swimming lessons. I never really learned as a kid and I figured it is never too late to learn. I really enjoyed the classes, and can now attempt at least three different strokes.


While we were at the family reunion we went to the Hogle zoo!

While at Raging waters we put Riley in the middle of all the clear tubes. He thought it was pretty fun.

Riley loved the water! He loves "swimming". The little float toy alowed him to be on his tummy, and he would flip his little legs like he was trying to swim. It was cute, and we all had a lot of fun.

This is a picture of all the kids that went to the zoo.

Riley was "helping" fix the sprinklers again.

Riley's first ride on a four wheeler. He loved it.

We went down to the river and threw rocks into the water.

When we went camping with my dad and brother, this was the mountain we failed to make it to.
