Wild Weekend

Dayton and Kyle arrived at the Aria Hotel ready for a great weekend of Pac 12 hoops.
Here is Dayton checking out the water show before heading the MGM Grand.
Quick stop at the Eiffel Tower.
They saw plenty of All Star basketball players and it started off with a quick handshake with Bill Walton.
They ran into Danny Ainge the first night before the games started.
Charles O'Bannon from the UCLA team that won the 1995 National Championship.
Heading home the first night and got in a quick pic with the Statue of Liberty.
Getting ready to head over for the Thursday quarterfinal games.  This was the best day because there were four games total and all of them were really close and competitive.
Dayton jumped on the Oregon bandwagon the first day and paid off as they eventually won the Pac 12 tournament.
Dayton's favorite thing to do was take a pic of the jump ball. He did this before every game.
Marquise Chriss posing with Dayton. He is a projected lottery pick in the 2016 NBA draft.
They had unbelievable seats as they were upgraded by the Pac 12 staff.  They sat 8 rows behind the bench for all four quarterfinal games and both semi-final games on Friday night.
It was a great tournament and I think a new tradition has been started as long as it's in Las Vegas.
Since Dad and Dayton were off for the weekend, the rest of us thought we would go somewhere too. We spent the weekend in Idaho with the Wakley's for a 2 night sleep-over.
We never left he house. We just lounged around the whole time.
Watching movies, playing with toys and lots of yummy food.
And of course we rode horses.
Camrie was a pro and rode by herself.
Taryn was not shy at all and hopped right on up.

Taryn was so nice to help Jaren sit on the horse. I didn't think he would like it, but he loved it. Matt took them around for a little ride and then he did not want to get off. I had to take him in the house kicking and screaming.
