Asking Chelsea to Prom




Dad's comment to Blake a few nights before he asked Chelsea Casserly to Prom was as follows....."Would you please just ask her, so I don't stress anymore about this!" Way to funny. Dad obviously thinks Chelsea would make a good fun prom date for Blake.
This took a bit of planning with their schedules, but Blake went on a bike ride in Kit Carson with his running/biking pal Chelsea. While biking, they just so happened to run into someone that looked a lot like Patricia Demorest. She was the hostess at the Kit Carson Bistro. Blake asked to be seated, and that he had already made reservations. They were seated in a great spot int he park. Jacob Clingo was commandeered to play the guitar while these two enjoyed a yummy dinner in the park.
It consisted of Chicken Salad Sandwiches, pasta salad, fruit and chocolate eclairs for dessert. After their meal, Blake asked Evan Nichols-roy, the head waiter, to bring him a rose. Blake got down on a knee and asked Chelsea if she would go to Prom with him. That little romantic!!!!!! She of course said yes.....and we will have to fill you in how the event goes down in a future post.

Mr. San Pasqaul Pageant


 Blake was selected by his Senior Class of 2011 to be one of the 10 contestants to represent the school for San Pasqual High School 1st annual pageant.  It was a lot of fun having Blake get ready for this event.  He was able to go to the tux shop and get a well fit suit to strut his stuff, and then he put together his talents, studied up on current events, for the judges interview question, and determine how he would show his school spirit.

It was a lot of fun watching the program and seeing that he was so happy for the young man "Negron", who won the pageant accept his award.  Blake got runner up.....and was very pleased with the outcome.

Got Milk?

This picture was shot for a Christmas Card a few years back.  I just thought it was funny.  The kids have grown up so much!  I laugh at how we got this idea, and that we seriously had to paint white paint on our lips.  There were tears, there was kids getting mad at each other, but all you see in this shot is one happy family!!!!!!!!

SP Rugby






Ok....these are pics...so that down the line we can prove to our posterity that Blake Ammon Farrow played Rugby. I don't do so good at watching my only son play brutual sports. I have been known to come running down bleachers when Blake was 10 and played basketball, when he got the air knocked out of him. So, when Blake asked me to come watch his first game and I did. I ended up leaving 20 minutues into the game.

Blake was indeed one of the superstars of the team, and he really, love playing it this season. He got great work outs, had good friends playing along side him and only had one concusion. As you can see his cousin, Landon came to watch him play. They later decided to call me to tell me he had been injured. I was cool.....came down to the field, made no scene, but after visions of Sunny Bono dieing after skiing into a tree, we took a drive to the emergency room. When we got to scripps, they got him in really quick, cause I had called earlier about if I should bring him in. When we got there, the image tech, said....wow, must be a busy day for injuries, a lady called in and is bringing her son in too. We laughed, cause it was us!!! Blake just said, "Yes, Rugby is brutual"!!!
