Learning to Tie a Tie

Brett and Tyle start basketball season next week.  For game days, they are required to "dress up".  Mike and I took them to shopping for basketball shoes and dress clothes.  They decided they wanted "real ties" not clip-ons.  The deal was we would buy them "real ties" if they learn to tie them.  So, last night Mike got out his "how to tie a tie card" and let each of the boys read it and then practice learning how to tie their ties.  They had it mastered after only about 3 tries.  Awesome job boys!!!!  They were so proud.....especially since Mom can't tie a tie without Dad's instruction card.
