ANIMAL!

Listen up ya'll. I know that it doesn't need to be said, but last weekend confirmed it....WE HAVE THE COOLEST DAD EVER! Preston recruited dad for a little dodgeball tournament held in battle creek as a fundraiser for a local boy scout troop. As you can imagine dad basically TORE IT UP and was declared the unofficial MVP.

A little pregame stretch.

The MASTER at catching (just look at the awe on his teammates faces).

The last face people saw before they left the court.

CATLIKE reflexes!

INTENSE (aka openmouth) concentration (I have about 10 pictures of this exact face).

The catch people just can't stop talking about.




Pretty sure dad's target just left the court to change his pants :)


Literally it was the highlight of my month. Our dad was SO FREAKING AWESOME!! I found myself yelling, on multiple occasions, "that's MY dad!" He saved his team SEVERAL times by catching a ball when he was the last person on the court which brought a teammate back in. I could hear teams strategizing on how to get him out and do it quick. Unfortunately (for them) they could not contain the ASIAN WONDER! Preston's team took first place in the adult category and Preston basically credits that entirely to OUR DAD!

From the moment I zoomed in on dads firey look I couldn't stop laughing. Thoes pictures are histerical. Love the slideshow of the catch, and I'm pretty sure I might need to change my pants from laughing so hard. Dad you're the bomb.

Just showed it to Connie, and she's crying she laughed so hard.

Just one comment about the first pic. Is it the pre game stretch or scratch?

Clearly that is a groin stretch and based on the next pic it's a good thing he did it!

I commented on the pics posted on facebook. Now I see where Taki got his "cheetah" like reflexes. I wish I had been there to see the Asian Domination. I bet people in your stake are still talking about it!
