And The Thunder Rolls!

And the rain is coming down.
A good time to sit down and catch up on a lot of things.  It is amazing to me that a man who is supposed to have so much time on his hands can't seem to get anything done like entering a simple blog post!  but time just slips away each day faster and faster.

Reflecting back on the past couple of days.  The 4th of July Holiday weekend was one of the best ever!  Krista made it in town late Thursday evening.  Somehow managed to keep her here through Monday morning.  Her time in Carrollton is usually restricted, much like when I'm in Blue Springs.

With her help and motivation we spent time  much of the time sprucing up the Shack I call home.  Krista worked her magic planting flowers and maintaining what was already in the ground.  I helped when I could   She has the place looking like someone actually lives in it!  Also with her in the house.....I was fed "real" food!

We took in the Bellamy Brothers concert at the City Park on Saturday.  The Boys still have it!

This week is the beginning of All Stars for Shelby and Shariden.  An exciting time for both.  Especially  For Shariden.  It's her first year to be selected.  Congratulations ladies....I'm very proud of you, your hard work has paid off.  Here are the results from the first round.  Shariden and her team came out on the losing end with the final score 19-2.  Shariden pitched the whole game.  They were up against a strong hitting team.  There will be a rematch tomorrow evening.  Shelby and her team on the other hand had a winning evening 10 to 5.  Shelby played third base and managed to pull down two line drives!  She will play again on Wednesday as well.  We will see what  happens then.

a note from Sharidens game.  After it was over, I was standing behind the bleachers straightening out my back, when a gentleman from the other team walked by.  He commented on how the girls had a rough go of it.  I agreed with him.  He then followed up with...."thats quite a little pitcher you guys have".  I just smiled and said "that's my daughter"!   I wanted to tell him "she's one of TWO Really Good softball pitchers out of Carroll County!!!!!!!!!!!!
