Started out 2 weeks in STL, with the kids the 1st week, then Cam went to my parent's house for an amazing week and Kelsie went to camp (more on that...) and I worked the 2nd week. Got to see friends and family and go to Rachael's wedding which was wonderful. Kelsie had a good week at camp, but came home w/o her suitcase. VERY long story short, her suitcase was loaded on a trailer of the wrong church and was FINALLY tracked down 2 days ago in Grapevine, TX. Hopefully it is either on its way home now, or will be very soon.
After getting back on June 13th, Cam started 2 weeks of basketball camp, Kelsie 1 week of golf camp. Kelsie then returned to STL on June 19th to work in VBS, will be back home tomorrow night; Cam finished bball camp last night. The 1st week the team practiced, this week they played 2 games each night in an UNAIRCONDITIONED gym - it's been 95 plus degrees all week, yuk!
Last Saturday I played in my 1st mixed doubles match of the season -- 3 hour, 3 set match in 94 degree heat, I thought I was going to be sick, but after 4 motrin, cold towels, drinks, I made it and we lost. But, it was still fun despite the heat and loss. And my partner was Matt King...see post below where Matt had a brain tumor removed and can you believe he is back on the tennis court playing amazingly? What a miracle!!!
This last week was a very sad week as a friend from work passed away after a long, courageous battle with cancer over the past year and Kenny's aunt Robbie also passed away after her long, courageous battle with cancer. I was so sad that I couldn't be in STL for Wanda's funeral. Ken and Cam left last night for Aunt Robbie's funeral, wish I could be with them too, but Kelsie comes home tomorrow night.
I will be heading back out on the courts in the morning for another match with a different partner. I do not like it when Kenny isn't there watching. Oh, I forgot, he had a singles match this week, he did not prevail, which is very surprising, he almost always wins. I coached him after the loss and I do not think he will ever lose again!
I think that's about it for June, at least I hope we don't have anything else going on. 2 weeks from today we leave on vacation -- Amelia Island FL. We haven't ever been to that part of FL before, I think we are all looking forward to it!
