What is Affiliate Marketing?
Back in 2008 when I was hired at a company called affiliateCREW (re-branded as Net Media Group) nobody really knew about affiliate marketing. Explaining what I did for a living was often met with glazed-over expressions. Affiliate marketing is a little bit more mainstream now and most people I talk to have a general idea…
Our Last Night Together
How I wish I could turn back the time and go back to April 10th, 2013. Looking back there are so many things I would have done differently. We lost Tate very early in the morning on April 11th, 2013. Brandi woke up in the middle of the night to his Angel Mat alarm going…
Flopping in Soccer
The 2018 World Cup has been incredible. Nothing has gone as I expected and I am loving every?minute of it. The only thing that would make it better would be if the USA had qualified, but that is a post for another time. Actually, I will never write a post about that. It stings too…
Happy 2nd Birthday Tate
This post was written by my wife, Brandi. Dear Tate, Today is your 2nd Birthday, but just like your 1st Birthday, it is not the Birthday that I had planned for you. Last year I stayed up very late the night before your birthday putting the very last touches on your party stuff. It was…
The definition of resilience is bouncing back after adversity…
I read an article on the Primary Children’s blog. The blog article is about bouncing back as a family after you experience some trials. I love this quote from the article: The definition of resilience is bouncing back after adversity. Resilient people have skills they can draw on to see them through difficult life events…
How Did We Get Here?
How did we get here? This is the question Brandi and I asked each other as we stood over our sweet Tate’s grave a couple weeks ago. It seems like everything since April 11, 2013 has been a blur and as reality continues to set in the sting only seems to get sharper. We have…
Happy Birthday Brandi… The Dirty 30!
Brandi, you are an amazing person and I am lucky that I get to call you mine. I hope Brandi doesn’t mind if I share this story, but 12 years ago on her Birthday I almost made the biggest mistake of my life. Clearly she was out of my league and I was lucky enough…
Announcing Tate Timothy Jacobson
We are pleased to announce our new little guy, Tate! We have been very excited to meet Tate! To say this pregnancy was tough is a bit of an understatement. Here is the story of his birth according to Travis. At our 20 week Ultrasound (around Memorial Day) we found out that Tate was missing…
BYU Thursday Hero
It has been kind of a rough year for BYU, in that we got beat up by Utah and it looks as if our BIG 12 dreams may be ruined due to us not being able to play on Sunday. These things, in addition to Tate coming, have made my interest in Football this year…
Huntin’ Buddies
We had such a fun summer and not enough time to blog about it. Back in August the boys spent a few weekends hunting. This year they decided it was time to get the little guys up hunting too! Hunter and Carson… such cute boys! Carson is lovingly referred to by our family as “Choo-choo”….
Brandi and Camping
Many of you may know that Brandi is not much of a camper. You may also know that I absolutely love camping. This has been a conflict our entire married lives. I tried to take Brandi camping once, but as we were headed up our car broke down and we had to head back to…
Happy Birthday Brandi!
It is quite clear to everyone that I married up when I married Brandi. I still remember when Brandi first caught my attention. She had the coolest personality I had ever been around and she was smoking hot as well. Needless to say she is the total package! I hope you have a great Birthday…
How will you walk out?
I love the motivational commercials from Versus. What can I say? I am a sucker for good advertising. With the New year approaching I thought this video was very appropriate: “Whether or not you win this thing, you got to decide how you are going to walk out of here when it is all said…
Brandi… you are too good to me!
I often tell Brandi that I am the luckiest man alive because I am married to her. She is truly incredible and I am grateful for everything she does for me! Even though we didn’t have a ton to spend this Christmas she made it the best ever with her creativity. She did the 12…
Hunter Scott Jacobson
Hunter Scott Jacobson was born on Sunday August 17 at 5:59 p.m. He was 9 lb’s and 20.5 inches. He is a big boy and we could not be happier to have him in our family! Brandi was originally scheduled to be induced on Monday August 18, and it looked like Hunter was perfectly happy…
BYU vs. UCLA
For Trav’s graduation present, we took a trip to California to see BYU play UCLA. This trip was so much fun! We went to a tailgate party with all the BYU fans and Lexi got her picture with all the cheerleaders and Lavell Edwards. The game was great and the UCLA fans were so nice…
