Another great week!



My Blog will start with Thursday as that is the night we watched Luke Play Baseball. Luke has been playing short stop for most games now and doing real well. He is hitting the ball with some confidence now also. I was only able to stay for a little while as I had a club meeting that I had to attend. Some of the pictures are of him out at short stop and one is him hitting the ball and then running to first. He was thrown out at first but advanced both runners that were on base. This put them in scoring position which they did.




On Friday night we went out to supper to celebrate Tyler's 14th Birthday....geeeeeez 14, It is hard to believe. Tyler selected a Japanese restaurant for his choice. This is were they cook your food right in front you. This is the 2nd time that we have been here and it is really good food and plenty to eat. Tyler took a take home box with enough food in it to feed an army. But I am sire he could eat it all by him self.





After supper at the restaurant we went to the Marvin's to open gifts. As you can see there was a few for Tyler to open. Cash and checks are always part of the gifts, that way he can buy what he really wants. Darenda had baked a cake but had no candles, so as you can see we had to make shift for one for him to blow out.









On Saturday they both had ball games, Tyler had a great defensive football game and Luke had a great game also. He went 2 for 2 and was givien the game ball.The next move was going to the Bowling Alley and they both had a great time. Luke had his party there with lots of friends. Tyler has a few buddies with him, and everyone seem to have a ball eating and bowling. Check out dad, seems like he is looking at his Blackberry, or is he. ha ha.




Saturday night we were back at the Marvin's for Luke to open his gifts. As you can see there also was plenty for him to be happy about. The Red Skins shirts are from Doug's parents up in Va. The boys are very excited about being Skin fans. Dough told them he expected them all decked out this fall for each game.
Well, that it for the week s worth of Blogs. Take care be a Blessing to some one to day.
Life Through the Spirit] Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death.” (Romans 8:1-2)

He is Growing up too Fast!

Wow, as he ever grown up. and too fast. Seems like yesterday that Tyler was willing and able to sit in our laps. Makes you want to cry.... The picture of the tree will be posted after lunch...sorry. Here is the last look that you get of this Stately Oak Tree. It has been in my back yard since 1985. It has been the support of our grand kids little bodies as they swung in their real early years. Luke still swings on it occasionally but that will end. I am a little sorry about it but reality has set in. This is the tree that hangs over our home and keeps me very busy on the roof during falling leaf season. Also it keeps me trimming limbs that concern me about falling on my roof. And Hurricanes, we won’t go there but it has concerned me when I see the news and pictures of Oak trees that have fallen on homes. It also has been a big help in keeping our home from getting too hot during the summer heat days. But given the fact that I am getting older and also should something happen to me Pat...

WoW... what a weekend!

Pat and I flew to Pittsburgh last Friday to see Manatee play football. we also took in a couple of Pittsburgh baseball games. I can't say much for the Pirates but the Hurricanes were great. We were on the same plane as the team, it was fun. Friday night we were invited to a private box to watch the baseball game. It was a great way to see the game. A lot of food and many friends to visit with. As you can see we also had a big desert cart. I made a mistake and ate a big piece of carrot cake and the next my sugar crashed about noon, but it was worth it. Saturday morning Pat and I walked down to the Rib Fest that was down at the Steelers stadium. They also had a marathon with 6,000 people running in it, yes 6,000. I tried to take some photos of the first people coming into the stadium. I don't think they turned out to well. We met some friends for lunch at Jerome Bettis's sports bar. We went there to watch the Gator game. Really did not have much to watch as they reall...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2012

Merry Christmas to all my friends and family   After what has happened in Newtown, Conn it is with a heavy heart that I enter the new year coming in. I just can not imagine how the parents and families feel, it just breaks my heart.   I sit an wonder what can we do to prevent this from occurring again. I can not come up with any logical ideas other than prayer. We must, must pray that our Lord provides us with a solution. We must pray that our leaders in this country help, some how. We must cuddle our children and grandchildren each day and show the our love and Gods love.   Prayer must be put back in the schools, in some families this may be the only place Gods name will be mentioned. There is no doubt in my mind that the devil is creating these issues. We must pray that all our children and parents let God into their hearts to guide and direct them. Jesus can and will help if we let him into our hearts and lives.   I pray that Gods love will be in ...
