St. Ann's 8th grade Boys BBall Champions

This year was Roger's 9th year of coaching at St. Ann's school. This was his year to win the championship. WAY TO GO !!! He is responsible for teaching Brittney alot of her basketball skills and this is why she is soooo talented. I am so proud of them.

Time To Brag

This years basketball season for Brittney was very frustrating. They were better than last year, but the coach is still learning what each player has to offer and what their talents are. I think this year she was able to see what she is looking for and now I hope whe will apply it to next years team. At this years basketball banquet Brittney was awarded with 2 awards and she again "lettered" in the sport of basketball. This is her 3rd time. Her awards were for " BEST HUSTLE" and "BEST DEFENSIVE PLAYER". This summer she will also be in a tournament in San Diego. Roger and I are so proud of her and her accomplishments. I can't wait for next year's season. The head coach has asked Roger if he would be interested in helping coach. Of course he said "YES".

Wedding Bells

Saturday March 7, 2009

Today Roger's cousin Stephanie married her best friend. The bride was beautiful! The ceremony was very nice and the whole wedding party looked AWESOME. My daughter Vanessa did all of the hairdo's for the bride and her wedding party (girls only). The reception was held at the Log Haven. The food was good and the entertainment was fun. The DJ they hired did a very nice job. It was nice just sitting and watching everybody have such a good time. I even was able to dance a slow dance with my hubby. My girls even got out on the dance floor. It all was such a special day not only because it was a wedding, but also because the bride and the groom came from Missouri. She is a physician who specializes in family practice and he makes computer software that helps neurosurgeons. They had great friends that came all the way from Missouri also and family and friends from places like Colorado, California and other parts. I wish them the best of luck, love and everlasting happiness and look forward to the next wedding which will be the bride's sister Kristen. October will be here before she knows it!! To my hubby.... thanks for the dance. I love you so very much!! Hurry home from Pennsylvania.

Recovery

I am recovering from surgery and it's been easier with the help of my loving husband, mom, dad, my loving kids, and some special family members and of course some great friends. I want to thank you (you know who you are) for your support and thoughtfulness during this time of medical drama. I love you all very much. The flowers, the chocolates, the heating pad, the phone calls, and the chicken dinner. Wow!!! I better get started on some very deserved "Thank You" cards and things.
