Car Wash!

This past Saturday, we had the first of two car wash fundraisers for the CSHS Wrestling Team at Pilger's Tire/Carquest Auto Parts on University Drive in College Station.  They are raising funds to go to the OSU wrestling camp this June.  It was a perfect day for a car wash and I was pleased with the turnout especially since this is the first time I have ever headed up something like this.  We are doing another one next Saturday, so wish us luck!

Mother's Day 2013

This past Sunday was Mother's day.  I unfortunately was sick with a stomach virus all weekend long.  I spent almost the entire weekend in bed.  Sunday afternoon I got out of bed around 2:00 in the afternoon and watched a little TV with Luther. Ryan and Luther gave me a card and a gift certificate to Starbucks.  That's awesome!  I took a shower because we were invited to go to Clay and Colleen's for dinner with the family.  I really didn't want to go because I was just starting to feel better, but I didn't want to disappoint the rest of the family. Basically, I sucked it up! I did get to see Lindsay's engagement ring for the first time and had girl wedding talk, lol.  Also, Mary Anne gave me some beautiful yellow roses. That was awesome too!

Later that evening, I called my Mom to wish her a happy Mother's Day and she was taking my Dad to the hospital.  It turned out he had a bad stomach virus and they kept him in the hospital for 2 nights.  Weird we both had one on the same weekend, I'm glad I didn't end up in the hospital.  I got to talk to him the next day and he was feeling much better!

Biopsy

The last week in April, I went to my doctor with some issues I was having.  While I was there she unexpectedly decided to do a biopsy.  She didn't act too worried about it, it was more of a precaution.  I wasn't too freaked out, but you still never know.  I posted on my Facebook page requesting payers for good results.  I think that freaked more people out than me.  In the future, I might re-think that.  I wanted the prayers, but I did not want to freak all my friends and family out.  Maybe next time, I will just ask for prayers for a personal issue... anyway, the results turned out all good and the issue I went to see her about is all healed up as well.

My Mom Necklace!

Wow! I am really behind.  I have not posted anything since the middle of April, so sorry!  well, here is a picture of the cute Wrestling Mom necklace I got, I just love it!

What a Week!

This has been a crazy week in America! On Monday, there was a bombing at the Boston Marathon, killing 3 people and injuring over 100.  The bombs were set off by 2 brothers.  One is dead, but not after killing an MIT police officer in the process.  The other is on the run and there is a massive manhunt in Boston and outlying areas today as I write this.  This has been classified as a terrorist act.

Wednesday night a fertilizer plant exploded in West, Texas and 14 people are dead so far.  They are still searching the area for survivors and recovery as I write this.  West is a small town north of Waco.  It has been a horrific accident. Many people displaced and the town is devastated. 

Today also marks a terrible day in history, It is the anniversary of the bombing in Oklahoma City. Let's hope next week is just calm and peaceful for this nation. 

Hurdles Over-MMA Beginning Again

Last week, Ryan finished up with his track season at school.  He gets bored with off season, so Monday night he started going back to his MMA gym, Team Unleashed.  He will continue working out there trough July and then when school starts in August, he will get back to wrestling.

This June, he will be going to a wrestling camp at Oklahoma State University. He has done one fund raiser with his school and hopefully will have another one in May.  He is pretty excited about going, this is the first away camp he has ever been to and the first wrestling camp.

We plan on taking him over to Oklahoma University to tour the campus.  After viewing out of state tuition rates, he better hope he finds a full ride scholarship if he wants to be a sooner!

2013 Cougar Wrestling Banquet

Last night was the first ever Cougar wrestling banquet.  We had a really nice night. Honey and Papa joined us and Rebecca Burns sat with us at our table. It was a wonderful night of good food, conversation and fun!  We had a great season and I can't wait for next year to start!
