some college football.

“The most discouraging thing to me right now,” Waialae said, “is that we're 2-3 and our defensive front has controlled the line of scrimmage in every game. They're giving us a chance to win every week.”

Derrick Rovira, #36, tackles #32 for a loss.

In honor of Joe...  thank you for the memories.

Photo taken at Thomas Coyne Winery in the Livermore Valley.  Thomas is a Penn State alum and die hard Penn State football fan.  Not to mention, Thomas is a fabulous winemaker for being a chemist and all.  We miss our weekend to this winery.  So rustic and fun.

softball is here!!!

Making progress of getting Maddie on a softball team.  She loves softball and cannot wait.  In the meantime, stay tuned for updates and read this little poem just for the girls.

It reads:

She is JUST A LITTLE GIRL 

She stands at the plate with her heart pounding fast, 

The bases are loaded; the die has been cast, 

Mom and Dad cannot help her; she stands alone, 

A hit at this moment would send her teammate home. 

The ball nears the plate; she swings and misses, 

There’s a groan from the crowd with some boos and hisses. 

“Strike the bum out!” a thoughtless voice cries, 

The game’s no longer fun, tears fill her eyes. 

Remember, she’s just a little girl who stands all alone 

So open your heart and give her a break. 

For it’s moments like this a woman you can make. 

Keep this in mind when you hear someone forget, 

She is just a little GIRL, and not a WOMAN yet.
