Summer Fun and Softball

Hard earned third place for Lady Raiders! Yeah, Noah!

Though temperatures are rising, it was a breezy day so we spent some time at the pond riding the paddle boat. The girls were several years younger when we took them on paddle boat rides and the boys had never had the experience. We remembered when the girls wanted to peddle but their feet wouldn't reach, as is the case with the boys now, but our girls were able to give Paw Paw a ride. How they are growing! What fun!

We spent the evening watching Noah play softball in a tournament in Winchester. Her team played three games this afternoon with only an hour break for dinner. They won two games and lost their last one 10 - 9. They finished third in the tournament. Not a bad showing from our Lynchburg Lady Raiders! Our Noah did her part in the team effort and we are so proud! It was great to see her enthusiasm and smiling face on the field! She hits the ball like a champ! Her Mama, Grey, Gigi, Gida, Paw Paw and I were so glad to witness this exciting event. Way to go, Noah!

We celebrated my Mom-in-love's birthday May 31st at Cracker Barrel but I forgot my camera. Got a recent picture so wanted to remember this loving, precious lady who blesses our lives sooo much. Love you, Mom!

Sunday was a great Father's Day! We celebrated by sharing a meal at our house. We had a great turn out. Those enjoying time together were my Dad (Paw, Gida) and Mama (Maw, Gigi), Holly and Troy, Jarrod, Blair, Noah, and Grey, Robin and Amy, Josh, Alf and me. Josh's family was in Huntsville at a gymnastics camp. Troy and Holly were with Brandon the day before and we took Alf's dad our to lunch the day before as well. How blessed we are to have such loving, honorable men in our lives! We are so thankful for each and every one. Love and blessings!
