Family Time
My Family is doing well, but we have a VERY busy summer ahead. Of course, it all revolves around Cassidy; everything Dee and I do is for him. So of course we are just working long and many hours at our resepctive jobs. While Cassidy has a perfect 13 year olds summer.
Cassidy recently finished 8th grade and will be freshman in the fall. He continued playing basketball throughout the spring with is B-Ball and Beyond team, finishing as the #2 seed in the post-season tourney. Due to several difficulties, they were unable to complete the tourney. He is continuing with this team for three tourneys this summer. The first one was in Colo Springs this past weekend. Not a great tourney (2-3 officially 3-3 overall), but a great learning experience. He was also selected as one of 12-15 freshmen boys to participate in 2 tourneys for the high school. The first tourney was at Metro State, and they ran the table going 6-0 as a team and winning their age group. Cassidy was spectacular with (these are guesses and not really exaggerated) 10 ppg, 5 blocked shots/game, and 8 rebounds/game. I guess there are some advantages to being 13 and 6'5".
Sports camps started today, and will run M-Th for the rest of the summer (7 am start all summer ugh!) 2 FB and one BB, plus practices for his rec league team. Busy Busy.
Since he will turn 14 this summer, Dee's cousin, who happerns to be a paint and auto body man, has appropriated a vehicle for Cassidy. It will take a couple of years to get it all ready, but Cassidy is excited to have his own car. It is a 198? S-10 Blazer (fwd, 2dr, and will have a custom flame paint job) but he will have LOTS of sweat equity built into it. The only problem is that he is sheduled within an inch of his life for the summer and will not be able to work on it much until winter/spring '07-'08. The bright side is that he can't even get a permit until15.5 years, so we have some time. He has worked hard to keep his grades up and now has some additional motivation to keep them up!!!
As always we try and sneak away for a few days each summer, but this busy summer will see us on only one long trip to MN for a family reunion. It will be a short trip, on 4 days (1 full travel day each way) but it will be good to get to see lots of family I haven't seen in 5-9 years!!!!
Hopefully there will not be a giant lag like this again.
