So glad you're here and part of the Lady Raider family!

Fore!

Rheagan played in her 1st golf tournament today and finished 1st in a sudden death play off.  She shot a 54 for the round.  Here are a few shots of Rhea and her traveling gallery.  Please note that Tripp was NOT very intrested!  More pictures to come....someday.
 

Birthday Girl

Wishing my mom the happiest of times on her special day.  Happy Birthday, Mom! 

Growing Up

Rheagan had an opportunity to be in Franklin, TN this past weekend for a girls only golf camp.  She LOVED it.  We slowed the car down just long enough for her to jump out of Friday and watched the College "Shoot-out" on Sunday afternoon.

Here are a few shapshots of the few minutes parents and others got to be there.    

This smile tells me she had a good time - and wants to go back!

What does a soccer goal look like?

Here's one from a corner kick - unassisted goal. Her team went on to win 1-0  She's on Team Argentina and Tripp is on Team Italy..

Here's Tripp's first goal - one of 9 for the weekend! He tells everyone that he's on a real team, with real practices, real uniforms  and with real goals.  He's the runt of the team, but the heart of a champion!

I also have what two beautiful prom chicks look like.  Here is Jess and Schyra going to their senior prom:

another first for us

Someone had a first soccer practice tonight.  Wonder who it might be!  Someone is limited to wearing only her age amount of those silly bracelets.  Wonder who that might be!

Spring Break

Here's our week in review.  Unforunately, I have no pictures of the aquarium because the camera battery was DEAD.  We did some cool behind-the-scenes things: fed the otters and trout, fed shrimp to sting rays, went above the tanks to talk to the divers as they got out of the water.

We also went camping.  This was Trippers first experience with the tent camping thing - and loved it! He wants to go back in "5 weeks".  We went about 30 minutes from the house at Gee Creek.  It's on the Hiwasee River in Polk Co.  It was perfectly quiet and restful for us all.  Note Tripp taking a nap in the chair!

Packing up ready to go!
