Khirstin will be taking her boards today. We all hope she does well. We can't even imagine what stress she has to be going through, but she has done a remarkable job.
It amazes me how she has been able to move & go to Med School in Kansas City & take care of Braeden & have time to of planned a wedding & still find time to do well in Med School & now to the point of taking her boards!
Again, Good Luck Khirstin we wish you the best & hope that all goes well with the boards.

A tad bit of excitement...
Well for the past two nights I have been at South Central (well really South Harrison Park). For those of you who doesn't know where that is - it is at the opposite end of the county. I live about as far north you can get in the county & South Central is about as far south you can go & there isn't an easy way to get there. Anyway you go you have to be on a curvy road.
Anyway I have been there for Zach's ballgames. They have both started at 8:00. I got home around 11:00 last night & around 12:00 tonight & I'm still getting up early & going into work. For those of you that don't know me it takes me a little while to wind down & I require sleep. I've never been one of those people that can function on 3 hours of sleep. I do good to function on 8 hours of sleep.
Zach's team lost their game last night 13-2, yes it was nasty. However I saw another game going on tonight & the score was 37 - 2 in the 3rd inning, so it could always be worse.
It looked as if the team was going to loose again tonight. They were behind by 5 or more points in the 2nd, 3rd & 4th innings - then there was a RALLY!! Our boys kicked butt! We were 6 points behind & going into the bottom of the 6th (we only play 6 innings) we were down by 1 point & the first batter struck out. The second got on first. Zach had a full count & ended up getting walked. We got a hit & another out & then the last batter got up there with 2 outs a player at first & Zach was at 2nd & the last batter his an in the park home run!!
It was exciting - Kiersten was jumping up and down & hugging me (you would of thought that it was the little league World Series). Our boys needed this boost.
We now play tomorrow at 6:00 & have to be there by 5:00, so we'll leave around 4:00 tomorrow afternoon. I'll have to get my nap in before we make the trek.
Good Luck tomorrow to the 10 year old North Harrison All Star Team!!
Good Night to all!

Nothing Exciting...
Well it is official I have a boring life. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining, but compared to other blogs I am a boring person.
I have a couple days of work left & then I'll be off for the summer yeah! Zach has been in basketball camp this week from 9 - 3 & then baseball practice each night from 7 - 9. He has a tournament that starts tonight at South Central. I have nothing against South Central, but it is a long nasty drive down there.
We had a good fathers day. The kids were with their dad so Ron & I went to visit with my dad for a while. We then went to town & had some fish which was good at the time, but Zach had a double header that afternoon around 5:00 so the fish didn't set to well in the heat. We were happy to get home to the air conditioning.
I am busy collecting material for baby quilts. Someone I work with is having a baby in October, a friend is having a baby in December & my wonderful sister-in-law is having a baby in January! Only 1 of them has found out what their having & the other two are being difficult - they say that they want to be surprised. This drives me & Kiersten nuts. We are nosey & would love to know if they were having a boy or a girl. So we have to find material that is gender neutral, which isn't easy. Oh well - I know they will appreciate the effort.

Busy
We have been so busy since school has been out. I have been working & both kids were in tennis camp, Zach in basketball camp & baseball. I have been meeting myself coming & going. Zach has one more basketball camp this month & he will be starting All Stars before too long.
We did have a visitor last week - Braeden came over for a few days & we had a great time with him. The 3 kids together are wild (good but wild).
Quite a few people from NH & Morgan went to Churchill downs yesterday. They had a thing for schools & you could get a ticket & we were on millionaires row & we they served some awesome food. I lost my $10 (I'm such a big spender).
Today the kids were with their step-mom so I went to lunch with my friend & her kids for her birthday. We went to Qudoba's & it was yummy! I have ate like a hog for the past 2 days!
Zach has a baseball game tonight & if he wins he'll have another this weekend.
I will post some pictures before too long.
