Who do we think we are?

For those of you who follow my blog you may remember a recent post about old family photos...

In the folder designated for my pictures I found some very funny ones but the one that really made me laugh was this...


Am I the only one in this group that has NO idea why we are making this face??? I mean, really!! Ahahaha!

We must have thought we were something. I am laughing out loud while I am writing this. Oh the memories! Shannon, I know you read this every once and a while...do you have a clue? And Krystal! I loved her, wonder where is she now? Shelly, do you think either of us had a clue that one day we would be related?? I love it!!

Yeah for 1999!!

# 1 and Not Just in My Eyes!

I felt so fortunate to be able to stay in PA long enough to see my "little" Dylan wrestle. I cannot explain what happens to my heart when he walks on the mat. Well even when he gears up. I'm surprised any of the pictures came out because of all of the shaking. I didn't know if I was going to cry, be sick or faint...it's so overwhelming! He is amazing. In the Northeast you get right down there, right in their face. So we were front and center to see Dylan kick some tail!!! He won his first match 6 to 0. And match #2, PIN!! That's right! All of those nerves for nothing!!

Coaching tips?? No, asking for $$ !



I know it blurry but I love it. Coaching/pep talk!


Dad/ Unofficial Coach



Flipping him upside down!

Slam! How does that mat taste??
Sorry, is that mean?

The champion and Grandma!

My boy!!

The Champion!

I tried to contain my hugs and kisses. I really didn't want to embarrass him but I couldn't help myself. I am so proud to see what a wonderful young (and handsome) man he is turning into...tears!!!  MY # 1!

It was such a great way to wrap up our trip. Wrestling tournament, Ricks 32nd B-day and lastly a good book reading session with my favorite  storytellers...


 Happy New Year!
