I have been trying out my photography skills or lack of and worked with a few of the pictures in Photoshop...this is what I came up with as well as just a few random shots that I thought were pretty neat too...

My Little Tennis Star!
I took off a little early from work on Monday to go watch Katie play tennis...she did a great job despite losing...but a few factors must be considered: One she was playing singles and she a doubles player, two it was windy as a cob that day, and finally, she was playing with a different racket than she has all season (her big sisters...) I told her to try it out if she felt comfortable so she did, but it is quite a bit different than what she is use to...much lighter and easier to maneuver. Oh and I almost forgot...she played against a Junior. She walked on the court with a smile on her face and walked off with that same smile. She gave it what she had and I think she did a wonderful job! It was fun to be back at the old tennis courts except this time on the other side of the fence. Good luck Kate with the rest of the season...We Support YOU! It's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game! Keep up the hard work!
Happy 76th Birthday Grandpa!

The newest member of the family ;)
Dad has been looking for a little utility tractor for quite some time now...in fact some time has turned in to years and years of searching, calling, stopping and looking and finally success! On Sunday he left the driveway in his black Chevy truck and retuned from an auction by Lastrup driving this little blue guy, who hasn't been name just yet...some suggestions I had were Found On the Road Dead (just kidding), Babe the little Blue Ox, tuff guy, or short stuff...we'll see if he actually follows through with the naming process. For those who don't remember Sunday was not the best day of the weekend...it was pouring rain, drizzling, misting, pouring rain, drizzling, misting (repeat) all day long! Dad went prepared with his nifty rainsuit, which came in handy on his wet ride home. He called mom to tell her he was driving the new tractor home and she said "isn't it raining? aren't you getting soaked?" and like a kid with his new tractor in the sandbox, who doesn't want to come in out of the rain....dad said "nope" We all laughed and some of us cheered as he rounded the corner into the driveway. I snapped a few pictures as you will see below...then later after supper he and mom took it out for dreary spin...runs like deere...oops I mean Ford...let's just say charm! Congratulations dad on your newest purchase! With a little spit shine and polish you'll have it looking like new in no time! (Due to Techinal Difficulties, Pictures will be posted at a later date, dang i-net)
