September Update

This last weekend we had my uncle roger and businss partner Loren Waldapfel come in town for the football game versus Maryland. Needless to say, the Mountaineers looked very good in a 31-17 win. We started the morning with baseball practice, the went over to the football stadium where we went down to the field before the game and watch the players warm-up. It was a very fun weekend. And we were able to convert a couple more people into becoming MOUNTAINEERS!



Reese has started a small group with some college students through our church. There are a few volleyball players on the team as well. So she is excited to get to spend some time with them over this fall.

On the baseball front, we are in the 4th week of official practices. We have intrasquad games almost everyday. The guys are getting alot of practice in and we are all spending alot of time on the baseball field before the weather turns on us in a couple months. But we are all doing great! Thanks for your thoughts and prayers!

First College Gameday!

This last weekend was our first college game day here at WVU. It sure is exciting around here on game days! The whole town gets behind their team. Tailgating happens all around the stadium and I can see why it would be alot of fun to be a student here. For this mom of 2, it was a little wild for my little ones, but thankfully our seats were on the Alumni side of the stadium. I decked out my kiddos in gold and blue and Cade loved the game. Caelyn loved the band and she was dancing up a storm. I can see her following in her mama's footsteps and being on her college dance team someday.
The Mountaineers laid a whoppin on the other team and we left early to get home and catch the Oregon State game on ESPN. The OSU game was exciting and the boys played well, but couldn't overcome the TCU Horned Frogs. OSU lost 30-21. It was a sad ending to a great day, but don't worry there are more games to come! On the baseball front, things are heating up. WVU hosts a big JC tourney this weekend and first day of official practice starts Tuesday. Chris is definitely excited to finally get some real baseball action going. He has been stuck in NCAA meetings for the last 2 weeks and he's dying to get some dirt in his cleats and some use out of his new Nike fungo! Yes, he's officially a coach, he has his own fungo bat!

The House

Here are some pictures of our new home. God has completely met our needs with this home. It was the first and only house we saw here in Morgantown and it is wonderful. It's less then a mile from the athletics facilities. My kids get their own rooms and there is a huge fenced in yard for my furry kids. Our God is good!
