Thank Goodness for Uncles-A Tribute

Thank Goodness for kind, generous uncles. We went to the Weber State homecoming game last with Austin, Dave & date Kaylene, and a few other friends. Now having two kids should be easy between two parents, but alas no, that is not always the case. Dave & Austin are some of the best uncles little boys could ever have. Dave & Austin entertained the boys constantly throughout the game. Jaxson was passed from Mom to Dad, Austin, Dave & even Kaylene took her shot at holding the little kiddo. At one point during the game, Dave left to go get a snocone-he came back with this huge cup of ice. He then spent his time feeding the two little birdies (Jordan & Jaxson), until I figured out that poor Dave wasn't getting any at all. Dave has been super awesome with boys, and even more so this last year.
Austin has always been awesome with the boys ever since Jordan was a baby. I trust him with the boys, and know that I can count on him whenever I need his help. We walked up to the stadium yesterday for the game, and about half-way up, I was getting a little tired of pushing the stroller of goods. Austin took over and pushed the stroller the rest of the way-it was such a relief. Austin always takes the boys whenever Mommy needs a break or needs help and I so much appreciate that. I sure hope that Austin and the boys keep this relationship as Austin joins the Marines next month.
So hoorah for uncles! Hoorah for great Brothers!
