We had an incredible vacation this year at Pagosa Springs, CO! We went with my parents and enjoyed the majesty of God's creation! Relaxing, horseback riding, four-wheeling, swimming, shopping, eating and Olympics watching filled our days... wish we could go back!! Thanks mom & dad!!
My father and I have enjoyed coaching the three girls from Tee Ball all the way through Little League. Many fun years and memories of winning and losing in all kinds of weather, with some great players and their supportive parents. A few tournament championships and many lessons learned along the way... Thank you dad for investing your life in my daughters and their teammates; to help them to love softball and to learn life lessons from the game. I know my girls all have memories of getting to 3rd base and listening to advice from you on how to get home safely. I hope they always continue to listen to guidance from Grandpa Denny (aka Father Hogue)! With all the girls moving up to Rebel Softball, Max is our last little Hurricane! He loved playing for the first time this year!
While Mallory and Maddy were at Challenge in New Orleans, we camped in Lake View for a week. Chad still worked everyday and came to us in the evenings. We enjoyed swimming, biking, and jet skiing as well as camper life for a change of pace.
The two groups of sisters on the Rebel Softball team this season: Natalie & Gloria Jensen along with Mallory & Madelyn Bjork. Natalie graduated and will be missed next year; but we will always remember her incredible over the fence home run this season!!
Chad and Max love to ride their bikes together! Max does really well for being only 6; his best ride so far is over 8 miles!!
Max enjoyed the tractors and semis at the Buena Vista County Fair! He didn't like the noise so much, but was glad for ear protection! He even got a free t-shirt! He's been alone all week with his sisters at camp. He is anxious for two of them to come home tomorrow... The tractor he is standing in front of is Jeff Demers' Smokin' Hot Deere. Fun night!
Max is sure growing as well as the corn! Could really use some rain soon... God will provide!
