Ashley, Courtney, Maddie and Baby Eva

Oh the joy of being a Nana and Grandad! We are so proud of Ash and Courtney as they parent their two little girls. They are tackling the job of parenting with confidence, humility and lots and lots of love. Two year old, Maddie and six month old, Baby Eva are two of the biggest blessings in our life.

Marty and Sweetie

Clyde and I have been traveling this fall and enjoying every minute however, our faithful companions have not. Marty and Sweetie, our two Wheaten Terriers have spent those weekends away in a kennel. They are always very excited to see us when we return and add lots of joy to our empty nest.

Weekends in DC

Georgetown Softball! Yes, two out of the passed three weekends have been spent in our nation's capitol watching Mackensey and her Georgetown University softball team play ball. We also enjoyed Mackensey's first GU softball banquet where several players were recognized for their achievements on and off the field for the 2008-2009 year. As many of you know, Mackensey was the first GU softball player to win Big East Conference honors for her hitting last season. She was awarded Third Team All Big East as a freshman! What an honor for her and for GU softball in their first season in the Big East. Mackensey was also recognized at the banquet, along with 13 of her teammates, for the Big East All-Academic selection. We are very proud of Mackensey's work ethic and her passion for doing her best in all she does!
