Aunt Nellie and Future Uncle Landon

So, Ryan's sister Nellie, and her fiance, Landon, came out...not to visit us BUT to go to the Final Four. We were just lucky enough to live here so inevitably they HAD to spend a little bit of time with us. They got here late Thursday. Friday they had practice sessions for all the Final Four teams and it was free to the public. So we decided to go meet Ryan for a picnic and then go watch practice. Our picnic ended up being eaten in the car while driving around trying to find a parking spot. Me and the boys only stayed for a little bit because really, how much fun is it to watch people practice with 3 little boys running around. Nellie and Landon stayed and Ryan just picked them up after work. Here is some pics of that fun practice endeavor.
Ryan and Strider - love Strides smile.

Proof that I, indeed, was there.
My boys minus Strider because he already was in a picture with me (above)
Nellie and Landon

Ryan is lucky enough to have a wife that surprised him with Final Four tickets for Christmas. Nellie was lucky enough to be graduating with her Bachelor's this year so she got a vacation for her present. Landon is lucky enough to be engaged to Nellie who got a trip to the Final Four. They got to go to the two semi-final games and the Championship game. The championship game was between Butler and Duke. Nellie and Landon are Duke fans. Ryan claims he is just a fan of the game and doesn't root for just one team. Whatever- it's only because the teams he had in his bracket weren't in the Championship game. Surprisingly enough, we did actually get to see Nellie and Landon for but a few hours. Kyler was attached to Landon. As soon as he met him he LOVED him. He wanted to sit by him. He wanted him to buckle him in his car seat. He wanted him to hold his hand or carry him whenever we went anywhere. It was cute. We had fun with them.

Landon playing Pokemon with the boys at the top of the swing set. I'm pretty sure the boys and Ryan and I definitely approve of Landon. We like him. We will allow him to become our brother-in-law/uncle/whatever.
