The picture on the blog tonight is one I took last year when the guys won a tournament. The team is mostly the same this year, but they’re all about 6 inches taller! They didn’t come home with trophies this year, but they came home winners. They didn’t win the games, but they are winners because they are such good kids. They played hard and they came away happy to have had the opportunity to be there and compete. We are so proud of them; I am refreshed to know that this generation coming up will have men like these boys will be. They’ve learned a lot through baseball about winning, losing, giving your best, ethics, loyalty, support, etc. We thank God for them and for allowing us to have been a part of their season. I took pictures last night, but they didn’t come out good at all, so I had to use last year’s picture. I must have had my camera set wrong last night. Our grandson, Bruce, is right in the middle of the back row and his dad, Davey, is the coach on the right in the very back.We stopped in OKC to collect hugs from the Oglesby bunch and that was fun. Garrett was there for the day, so we got to sneak a visit with him and pass on a message his Aunt Diane had sent to me for him. It’s always fun to visit there and they give the best bear hugs!
We came on home and got here in time to get some sun and then get cleaned up and fix dinner before singing at the nursing home and then Wednesday night Bible class. It’s always busy at home! It was nice to be gone to the tournament because we had some time between games to relax. The hotel was really nice, so it was a great time and the folks around us were wonderful people. It’s always good to get home, though.
Daniel was here when we got home, but he left after church to go to Weatherford for a couple of days. He has something to do to get ready for school this fall, I think. He’ll be home Sunday. He’s a good guy and I pray that he travels safely as we did. I thank God for all our safe travels and our family’s health.
