Over the 4th of July weekend we went camping with about 25 other people in Cherokee National Forest along the Hiawasee river. We really had a great time partying, eating, canoeing and white-water rafting.
Lynlee’s good friend, Hillary, came to visit us from the UK and joined us for the camping trip. She had no problem fitting right in.
Noah entered a 3v3 Soccer tournament last weekend. Even though the heat index was above 100, and they lost most of their games, the boys had a great time playing.
In the picture you can see that Noah is wearing a TNFC (Tennessee Futball Club) uniform. He tried out for and made this local travel soccer team a few weeks ago. They will begin practicing in a few weeks and start playing in tournaments around TN and the southeast this coming fall.
I pulled out a box of old video tapes and started ripping them to my hard disk. Here’s a great clip of Noah, when he was about 8 months old, sitting with Zeke, our greyhound.
Last weekend Franklin TN received more than 12 inches of rain in 36 hours. Some areas nearby had over 18 inches. There was terrible flash flooding, then the Harpeth River spilled out of its banks causing lots of flooding in low lying areas. We were fortunate and had no problems with the storm, but lots of people in our community were seriously affected. Click to see more pics.
Noah is playing for the Mets in the Franklin Baseball League and their season started today. He had a great game and a lot of fun. Click on the pics to see more.
He was awarded the game ball for being Player of the Game!
