Cargo Shorts

I have been wearing Cargo Shorts for quite some time, but I never knew their true value until Evie and I had children.  No matter what age your children are, there is always something that needs to be at your fingertips.  In the past, my cargo pockets have stored snacks (Goldfish was always popular), sippy cups, and cream (sunscreen, anti-itch cream, etc.).  As my children grew older, it was interesting to watch them approach their respective pocket to gain access to the item they needed.  Afterwards, they would return the item if needed.  Recently, my older daughter placed her 16.9 fl.oz. plastic bottle of Ozarka water in my pocket before we left the house without even asking me.  It's just a given nowadays for my girls!

Dads all over the country are wearing Cargo Shorts.  I follow NYC Dads Group and I have seen Lance Somerfeld and others wearing them.  Check out their website:  NYC Dads Group.

There are many brands of Cargo Shorts out there, but I prefer American Eagle.  American Eagle may not think it is cool that a guy approaching 40 years of age wears their gear, but I wanted something that was durable and looked nice!  I used to have a camouflage pair too, but I developed a hole in a certain place so I had to stop wearing them.  Feel free to send me a new pair American Eagle!

Dads - get a pair of Cargo Shorts.

UTRGV Men's Basketball

Chasse Conque and his team at The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley have been working hard to enhance the fan experience at athletic events.  We arrived in Vaquero Village about one hour before the game started and we were impressed!  They have a great lounge area outside, a bounce house for the kids, food (at reasonable prices - credit cards accepted), drinks (yes, beer), and a live band!  The band played music from Daft Punk, Bruno Mars, Taylor Swift, and my personal favorite - Rage Against the Machine!   Jesus T. Pena and Chasse Conque We purchased general admission tickets for the game.  Every seat in the house is great!  During the game, there are plenty of raffles and activities to engage the fans.  The men's basketball team is very competitive and we were on the edge of our seats the entire time! Warming Up We were glad the game ended with the Vaqueros winning.  We are looking forward to another Vaqueros game soon! ...

Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is an opportunity to show our children love and it does not have the break the bank! NEVER sleep on Dollar Tree!  I was able to find quality, yet inexpensive, glass votives for roses.  I had an existing rose bush that I had been caring for and that is where I picked and trimmed my roses for my daughters.   While at Dollar Tree, I picked up some boxes of chocolates that they liked!   Don't. Forget. The. Card.  Spend some time choosing a card that matches the recipient.  Write something meaningful in there and they will cherish it forever.  I did not splurge for the balloons, but Dollar Tree has those too! Roses | Chocolates | Cards The reality of societal pressures gives us an opportunity to display our love for our family on this holiday.  We love our family EVERYDAY and we show it! Jesus T.
