B B B Benny and the Jets

Ahhh a fabulous song, however not the reason for this post.

Today my younger, but no so little (any more) brother Ben is flying out to New Zealand where he will live for the next few months. This amazingly talented and handsome brother of mine has been drafted to play professional basketball in New Zealand for the Manawatu Jets.



Who would have thought that working as a personal trainer at Golds Gym, working out and shooting hoops would lead to Ben being discovered by a scout and now a professional basketball career? I am totally gushing and crying!

I could not be more proud of my little brother. He has worked extremely hard for this and it is not only a dream come true for him, but also a dream come true for me to see happen. I have always loved to watch Ben play basketball. He truly was born to play and today I am one happy sister.

Good luck Ben!!! We love you and will miss you, but can't wait to come visit you in July to watch you tear it up!!!
