20th High School Reunion for SGP!!


Hard to imagine but it's been over 20 years since this blogger graduated from high school. So, I drug my faithful spouse to the reunion on Saturday night. Got to catch up with and see a lot of old friends, some of whom I hadn't seen in at least 10 years (the last reunion) and others probably the full 20. It was a lot of fun (wasn't it Chris?) and nice to see everyone. To honor the occasion I allowed my picture to be taken with a group of my running buddies from the "good 'ole days" - Barb, Chris, Trlica, Jill & Melody - all good memories and hopefully it won't be another 10 years before I see some of them again... (HINT HINT!!)

1st HOME RUN!!!!


In a stunning defeat over the A's - the Rockhounds had a round of excellent hitting. There were three home runs but number 12 on the roster, number 1 in your heart - hit his FIRST!!! He finished it off with a wipe out after rounding third base and a close slide into home plate. He wanted to make sure mom got to deal with both grass stains and mud in one fatal swoop. He's very proud and was awarded a game ball. Here he is showing off his prize - the first of many I'm sure.

Fall Ball 2008!

Well folks, it's that time of year again - FALL BALL!! The Rockhounds are back and in good form. We've had 4 games so far and won all but one of them. The rules changed a bit this year which is hard on the boys but they're adapting and growing as a team. It's going to be a great season.

Michael is SEVEN!!!!!!

Hard to imagine but my baby boy has turned 7. We had a party at the house with all of his friends and we tried to keep them from killing each other jumping in and out of the pool and running around like NUTS!!
