Utah Jazz Dunk Team

Last Monday Connor got to participate in the 4th grade tin can cookout. We cut out a can and sent it, a Sterno, and all the supplies he would need to cook himself a delicious breakfast.  I met him there and watched as he and Chet cooked pancakes, eggs, hash browns, and sausage.  It took awhile, but they were eventually able to cook and eat everything they had brought to eat.  They had a great time and Connor is super excited because they are doing another tin can cookout at Pack meeting so he gets to try it again.


Saturday we went to Kiwanis Kids Day at the park.  Everything was absolutely free so the kids had a blast.  They got free lunch then jumped on the bouncers and did some other activities.  Matthew even won a $50 Wal-Mart gift card.  Rory sat in the dunk tank and the kids made rockets to blast off, it was fun but super exhausting. 









Saturday night was our Jazz Dunk Team Event.  Rory has been planning this for months, so we were super excited and stressed that it was finally here.  Matt Griff (Taylor's dad) is on the dunk team so several months ago we contacted him about doing an event at the high school.  He and his team were super excited and so the planning began.  We invited several dance groups to perform as well and had dinner for the dunk team and the Jeff Wood for Sheriff Committee.  It was such a fun event, they got the crowd involved and did some amazing dunks.  The stands were full and we have received so much positive feedback that we've decided to make this an annual event.  All of our hard work paid off and the kids loved meeting the dunk team (Kadee even got their autographs).
