Life as Usual

The clock just keeps ticking faster and faster. Golf, volleyball, and football...you will find us at one of those activities lately. Oh, and basketball...even though it is not quite basketball season. Our new Coach, Sharia, aka Coach "Summit", is so energized and interested in our program that she is already gearing up for the season! This picture is me  riding on a golf cart. I am learning to sit still and be a spectator. It is hard for me to just do "nothing" for hours on a golf cart but I am learning to relax and enjoy it...my Sister would be proud!

The week after Labor Day was the longest "short week" ever! Less days to prepare for tests, PTO room parent meetings, golf lessons, golf matches, volleyball practice, volleyball games, class reunion meetings, etc. Friday night we crashed at home and did nothing. Saturday morning the girls had a basketball camp in Memphis. This is the girls at lunch after the camp.

The girls had a nice surprise when they got home that day...Britt was home from MTSU!!! Ginny cooked us a huge meal and we loved visiting with her and hearing all about her new college life. We are happy she likes it so much but we were glad she came home to see us...that is why you came home-right Britt? We didn't take any pictures...we just visited and hung out at our house.

Joseph also came in town for the night and he and Oney played until Oney could barely walk. He actually went to bed in tears Saturday night...he was exhausted. They played outside all day long. Joseph tried out the kids newest pasttime...skiing and sledding on the grass behind the Polaris. Yes, you read that right. No snow needed. They burned an entire tank of gas! They had the time of their lives. I am not sure what the neighbors thought when they drove by the house. But, the boys had fun. Look at how dirty Joseph was...

Sunday morning we went to church. We started our new Sunday School book, In The Grip of Grace by Max Lucado. I think it is really going to be good. I am looking forwaard to it.
