Three Straight

I have no recipe, no secrets, no shocking surprises.  What I do have is a talent for getting lucky.  Tonight Louisville won the NCAA Mens Basketball Championship and in doing so topped off my third straight year of winning the Fontano Family NCAA Bracket.  I actually won the contest over a week ago when Louisville beat Duke.  Their last two wins were just icing on the cake.  I did two brackets this year and I did them completely different.  On the first bracket, which I believe took 4th on the Fontano Family contest, I did my best to look at the teams and pick according to a logical outcome.  My second bracket was purely off of gut instinct.  I look at the two teams and just pick one based on my gut.  It's proved to work okay for me at least for the last three years.  The kicker is that I don't watch basketball.  I don't think I saw a single game this season.  Let me go back to that talent for getting lucky.  Hmmmm, can that even exist? 

In other news we had a power outage tonight so we took FHE on the road and drove by the area where the new Temple is likely to be built.  I don't know of any official statement regarding location but had a visitor in the LBH today who had some inside information.  I thought the kids would like to see and I wanted to get an idea also so we drove over.   We discussed the blessings of the Temple, how each of the kids felt about the temple coming and what the blessings of the temple were in their lives.  It was a good meeting and a good drive.    The area where we were told the temple would be built was beautiful.  We are very excited about it.
