Rugby

Our niece, Annisa is now playing rugby, a brutal sport.

Where did Dad get that hat?

An e-mail from Grandpa to Evan

Hi, Evan. This is grandpa. I just saw the picture of your whopping injury. I remembered that when I was a little older than you I was playing baseball when my brother accidentally hit me on the head beside my eye. Here is a picture of my older brother holding ice to it to make me feel better. I can see that I was sad!

Hope you get well real soon. Glad that there were no broken bones.

Love ya,

Gpa J





Joel sent this e-mail to us. In his case he was on the right side of the bat!

Oh my goodness! Poor guy! I actually did the exact same thing to my best friend in 3rd grade. Gave her a half a dozen stitches.

...wow. What a battle wound. I'll pray for a speedy recovery!

Chess Tournament

Evan and I attended a chess tournament in Carlisle on Sat. We went with a classmate of Evan and his dad. They played five matches against kids from PA, VA, NJ, MD and DE. Once these kids do a tournament they are ranked so Evan and his friend are both now ranked. They each lost some and won some. There was some pretty stiff competition. Evan lost his first match and then won his second match but made a mistake and marked it as a loss. His third match he won in six moves and his fourth match he won in four moves. He then lost his fifth match. He was in the K-3 class group. It was a beautiful day so in between matches we played baseball, football, and frisbee, outside. It was a good thing we took balls, bats, gloves and the frisbee, the kids had a blast. These pictures were taken with our point and shoot so forgive the quality. There are also some shots of Tammy and Elizabeth during dance class recital practice. Click on the picture and select slideshow.
