Ivy League Material

On Wednesday night, Landon had a very special visitor who flew in from New Jersey. Marcus Jenkins, Assistant Coach for the Princeton Men's Basketball Team, heard of Landon's birth, his above average height (length), and big hands and feet (according to the Nurses at Stanford) and just had to make a trip to meet our little man (while in California visiting other Princeton basketball recruits).

I didn't think colleges were allowed to make contact with potential recruits this early, but we welcomed him into our home, nonetheless. We made Marcus dinner (grilled chicken, potatoes, salad, garlic bread) and introduced him to little "Lando". They chatted for a bit, exchanged Facebook & Twitter contact information, and promised to keep in touch in the years to come. 

Needless to say, Coach Jenkins left our house full, happy, and impressed with our little guy. Not sure what Landon's favorite sport will be (soccer, football, baseball, basketball, wrestling, track&field), but good to know we'll always have a great summer basketball camp to send him to if he wants to go (wherever "Uncle Marcus" is coaching at the time)!
