Gym Jones

Jason has a very vigorous work out routine. Gym Jones is just one of the gyms that he trains at. I think the trainers at this location are the most hard on him. You have to have a lot of heart to even be able to go and participate. They train Olympic athletes, movie stars and some of Jason's other Jiu Jitzu friends in his class. Here are some of the pictures from the site. If you would like to see the site yourself and fully read what you have to endure check it out at http://www.gymjones.com/



The torture that he puts himself thru is just mind blowing. He is training to be the BEST!! He has such a strong passion for MMA. I know he can take this talent and go all the way with it. I can't describe in words how proud I am of him. He amazes me every day. I am truly lucky to have this man in my life. He is a warrior!!

Southern Sun

Who says dusting off a brand new set of golf clubs that you received three years ago is not a long wait? Well I wouldn't say that...not at all. Roy picked out a nice little golf course in St. George for the two of them to golf at while Andrea and I did lady things, which was supposed to include a pedicure but didn't because the place is no longer there. Sad :( Other then that we had a great little time doing other things while waiting for them to get done. Like getting pulled over 2 minutes after dropping them off. That was the start and then no pedicure then not having enough lady time. O'well the weather was nice...not nice enough for capri's though. Those stayed
neatly folded in our suitcases. After we picked the Men up we treated ourselves to Texas Road House and a movie.
Oh, Vegas . I have definitely had enough of you I think...Okay maybe not. The last three times going to Vegas we have attempted to see the dolphins and white tigers. The others gave in to my demands and we went and saw it. Not really what I was expecting. The dolphins didn't do any tricks and the tigers and lions were lazy!! Been there done that. I have checked it off the list and don't ever need to go again.


After taking a cab back from the Mirage ( there was no way I walking 5 miles back! Okay, maybe it wasn't that far but still ) We sat out side the M&M store to do some people watching. The batteries in my camera died and Andrea's were slowly fading as well or I am sure she would have alot more pictures. I know our laughter was at other peoples expense. We should have a site called people of Vegas..just like they have one for people of walmart!


We had a great time. We usually do with the Barker's. I am glad that we were able to go. Can't wait to get away with them again!!

Pan Ams


I am little behind on posting this. This took place about a month ago.


Don't ask me what Pan Ams stands for. All I know is that it's another Jui Jitsu tournament. It took place in California. Yes, another one that I didn't get to attend but supported from home :)
Jason took Bronze in his division. He signed up for two different competitions. In the first he was disqualified for an illegal move which he wasn't aware was illegal. Different competitions have different rules, sometimes hard to keep them all straight. The second was the open division. This is where you go up against men different weights and sizes but have the same color of belt. The man that won gold looks like he has about a foot in height difference and about 50 lbs more in weight...so not fair!!
Even though Jason was disappointed in himself, I am not. He works his butt off. He is the BEST in my book and I am in no way saying that because he's my man...okay, maybe a little!!
I am so proud of him. He loves doing this and I love watching him...no matter if it's from home or front row. I love you babe! Good job!!
