Last weekend I spent it with the family in Columbus watching Matt compete in the Special Olympics in tennis. Yes, it was a very hot weekend, but well enjoyed by all. There were a total of 2600 athletes down there and that is not counting the coaches, volunteers, and family members. So there was probably close to about 35 hundred people roaming the campus of OSU that weekend. Matt did really well in tennis. He placed 5th in singles and was in the 2nd to top division and in doubles they got 4th and they were in the top division. So he has improved and moved up and he was very happy with his outcome because he knows he has to work harder and harder each year and that is what he has done!
Of course this was the weekend we celebrated our Nations birthday. We all gathered at my parents and my grandparents and our friend from the library came out and we had a little celebration with BBQ ribs and all the fixings for lunch and then a mini fire and hot dogs and goodies in the evening as we watched the fireworks from our own back yard! That is one thing we will not miss...the fighting traffic to get the best set for fireworks, we just have to stand in our backyard and we see so so so many! and it's Free parking!
I am slowly working on getting the upstairs of my home cleaned and straighten up and school things organized. It is starting to look like bedrooms and real living space up there now....i have gotten rid of so many things and boxes that, that made a huge difference the first day. That the last week or so in an entry....
Until Next time ... Have a wonderful week and try to stay cool!
