The photos are a bit blurry as Hayley took them in the NCCU gym (and gyms always have terrible light) but they are pretty awesome photos of Hayley and her friend with some very cool folks at NC ProAm basketball tonight. They were excited to watch some summer basketball and get autographs from a bunch of UNC players – Harrison Barnes, Kendall Marshall, Dexter Strickland, PJ Hairston, Raymond Felton and John Henson.
I’ll post more pictures later.

Kendall wore some neon pink laces and Hayley loves neon and had her own neon laces on tonight so he took a photo of she and her friend’s shoes with his and tweeted it. I love that kid!

We went up to Blacksburg for a Fourth of July vacation. Blacksburg is so lovely in the summer when it is just sweltering down here. I know Jeff was happy to visit Virginia Tech’s campus as well since it had been a few years.
The big news was that Jeff and his folks ran the Shawsville 5K. Jeff did great for his first race, his mom was first in her age group and his dad was third – the rest of us just slept in and then drove around in the Jeep cheering for them. Just for the record, Grandma Sharen crushed everyone in croquet twice. She was on the winning girls team for games with me and Hayley as well. I think that means Grandma Sharen wins the Fourth of July.

Hayley is playing softball and I’ll add the occasional photos through out the season to the pile I’m starting here.

We went to Roller Derby on Saturday to watch the Carolina Roller Girls face the San Diego Wildfires. Of course the match was delayed when we had to evacuate to the basement of Dorton Arena as the tornadoes swept through the greater Raleigh area but we got a good story of out it at least! Skating resumed eventually and it was a hotly-contested match – down to the last jam but Carolina pulled out the close win.

I’m way behind on photos – literally hundreds piled up. We have been swamped this trackout. We just got back from Wrightsville last night and then headed to Finley to play golf with Grandpa Gordon.

We went to the Spring Football game today! After sweltering last year, it was freezing this year. We had a good time – much bigger crowd that I was expected with the cold overcast day!
