Up and off to market this morning. Daughter met us there to help during the busy early time. G-daughter I thought everyone talking to her was funny !!!
We had a pretty busy morning even with the threat of gas shortages because of the hurricane damage in the gulf.
Daughter and hubbie left to go shopping about mid morning and sales slowed down after that but I am very thankful for all that we did sell.
The news of the day of course in the major category 4 hurricane that hit the coast of Texas and is predicted to sit there for several days dumping insane amounts of rain .
After market I made stops at Sav Mor and Aldi to pick up baking supplies and a few groceries.
I made it home at 3:15 and hubbie who had just finished mowing the lawn helped me unload.
We rested and watched a NC team play in the little league world series, unfortunately they lost in the last inning by one run.
Brought back memories from 1997 when #2 son played in the southeastern little league tournament in Cape Coral Florida. This is the decade pics I found for this month of that trip.
We rented a car for the trip to Florida because the one we had at that time wasn't good enough to take a chance on a trip that far in.
We crossed Tampa Bay for the first and last time so far in our lives.
Opening ceremonies.
#2 son gets instructions from the coaches.
Son gets a hit.......
Son on base.....
Daughter was one of the designated baby sitters of the coach's son.
And daughter had fun in the gulf with one of the other players sisters Sara.
Son also got in some beach time.
This was a Babe Ruth league and the players had to stay with host families while their families stayed in hotels. This lady took in son and 4 other players into her home.
The boys ran through this tournament undefeated and let a team come out of the loser's bracket and beat them twice to win the tournament. One of our main pitchers had gotten stung on his pitching hand by a sting ray and that led to our demise. But it was a really fun time and a great memory.
#2 son came in after Bear , his dog who had stayed here all day while the realtor showed son's house twice and we had a nice visit while we watched the game.
Happy tonight to get into bed earlier to get rested up for nursery duty tomorrow at church.
Thankful for a wonderful blessing filled day.
God Bless and Good Night.
