Glory Days

With Jackson enjoying basketball camp this week, I am reminded of the "glory days" when I played basketball. He is soaking up all the instruction his coaches and his granddaddy are giving him and it reminds me of when I fell in love with the sport myself. He has fallen in love with the game and plans to play this fall. When he visited Mom and Dad on Monday, he and Dad got out in the driveway and worked on passing, dribbling, and shooting. Mom had convinced Dad to tear down the old goal, now Dad plans to add a new net for it and keep it up. I think dad enjoyed playing basketball that evening as much as Jackson did! If Jack plans to play basketball this fall and Tyler plays baseball and Lily takes gymnastics or plays soccer, we could all be at different sporting events at once! I guess the price of gas will go up again this fall when my family creates a shortage from having to travel all across the city for ballgames!

Brandon is enjoying some down-time during a business trip in Ohio. He went to the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame yesterday and enjoyed some relics from his glory days in college. He also went to an Indians game, his favorite team since childhood. I can't wait to see all the pictures and souveniers, and I know the kids are excited to hear about everything as well. In fact, Brandon says that Cleveland would be an ideal place for a family vacation one day......
