Grandkids Update

Here's a Nana Update. I miss my grandkids terribly but WOW, I doubt I could keep up with them. Here's a little of what's going on in their lives as I promised them I would post.

All I can say is: Go Kids!!!

Bay Area Update
Granddaughters Madison and Cassidy finished play in their baseball leagues - both on winning teams. Cameron would take one girl to one location, and Barbara take one to another location when the girls' games were slated at the same time. Both girls were volunteers, working on fund raisers for Cassidy's school. There have been and continue to be sleepovers with friends (hear that it's been sleepless in Belmont for mom and dad). Plus there are piano lessons/practices and rehearsals for the church musical. And we can't forget, the shopping trips. Madi and Cassie (and their mom) will soon fly to Louisiana to spend time with family. After that, it's the start of another school year.

Bend Oregon Update.
Grandson Preston just finished a week of Football Camp, grooming to play quarterback position starting in the fall (friend Justin in picture with him). He finished his baseball season in May, playing pitcher (his team also had a winning season). Oh yes, he hit two grand slams. He was also in a team marathon on the Deschutes River (running, riding & rafting), and his team came in 4th place. Preston starts Horse Camp in about a week where he will ride and care for horses. He is quite an athlete and very outdoorsy. He swims, fishes (see pic of his catch), plays golf, snow skis, rides motorcycles and ATVs. What a resume for an 8-year old, and I am sure his mom Alisha gets plenty of exercise taking him to and from his activities. After a summer of fun stuff, Preston will return to his Christian school. He loves that too.
