Las Vegas Invitational (3v3 Soccer)

We traveled down to Vegas a couple weeks before Christmas for Jadyn's 3v3 Soccer.
Her team was the Sleigherz.  They dominated, but lost in the consolation championship.

We got free rooms at the Downtown Grand!


Ready to Check-in

Kamri and Kennedi pretty much took over Las Vegas


This is on 3rd Street. Kennedi loves her boots.

 Andy got to choose our dinner, so we went to Cheesecake Factory in Summerlin.  It was chilly.

Glad we got the Monkey into the picture

We hit Fremont Street early in the morning in search of some donuts

Thanksgiving with the Homies

The Holmes Family came down to visit for Thanksgiving.  It was awesome to have them come stay with us and share in our Thanksgiving fun.


We were closed for Thanksgiving, but we had a large catering order to get ready, luckily the Homies were happy to jump in and help.

Update on Kennedi

Kennedi - 2013


Kennedi has been busy.  She has been to Preschools at  Bloomington Hills and also at The Summit.  She loves teasing boys and makes friends very easy.

Kennedi's favorite thing to do is to be outside playing, riding bikes, or playing dolls, but she is also a big helper at Firehouse Subs. 


Kennedi loves school and making friends


Kennedi is always ready for a "selfie"

She doesn't flirt at all with the boys ;)

She's a 5 year old diva!

Update on Kamri

Since 2012 Kamri has graduated Pre-School, and Kindergarten, and she has played U6 and U7 soccer and StG City Soccer too!  We started gymnastics in January 2014 and her and Kennedi love doing that too. 

Kamri's big thing is she wants to be first, or the best, or both.  She loves to play soccer and tries real hard to listen and plays very hard.  She hates to lose, but even hates more when she gets subbed out.

Update on Jadyn

Jadyn is our soccer-playing, selfie-taking daughter.   One big change in the last 2 years is now she is loud!

Jadyn's favorite thing to do is hang out with friends and Instagram or SnapChat or a mixture of all that.

This is why we call her "Beautiful Jadyn"

Jadyn would rather get some sun than swim in the pool.

This was from her old team, but I don't have a lot of pictures with her new team.

I told her we would get ice cream if she smiled!

Catching Up From 2012

We've been pretty busy the last 2 years. A majority of our time has been gobbled up with our Firehouse Subs franchise adventure.  In Andy's most previous life he worked for Sire Technologies and Hyland Software.  His job as an Implementation Specialist took him all over the United States and Canada.

On one of his visits to North Carolina he visited a Firehouse Subs restaurant.  Shortly thereafter we began pursuing opening a franchise of our own in St. George. Andy visited 7 different locations of Firehouse Subs: Las Vegas, Texas, Tampa, Sandy and North Carolina, talking to owners and managers and getting information on all factors from ownership to operation.

Next, we had to go to Florida to meet the Founders of Firehouse Subs.

Holly did some shopping




We ate at a few Firehouse Subs in and around Jacksonville, Florida.



Training in Las Vegas

Then we got started on our own in St. George.
