It's All About Hoops for Matt!

Matt is playing almost everyday in July is some kind of basketball tournament. He comes home from Chicago today and then Grandpa and Matt leave on Sunday for 4 days of basketball in Indianapolis. The last week of July will see Matt, Lori, Grandma and Grandpa in KC. Nancy and Eric are going to join them later in the week (after Eric finishes football camp!)

Bridgeton Parade!

His Singers float in the Bridgeton 4th of July Parade. The kids did a great job singing and throwing candy to the crowds. The parade started a hour late due to rain but it did not dampen our spirits or the crowd!

Can you guess where these flags are?

In the post on the 4th of July there are three flag pictures (not including the one of JD) - who can guess where they are . . leave it in the comments 1, 2. 3.

The Horton's guessed it correct - my home, Camp Ne-O-Tez and Busch Stadium!

Happy 4th of July!

All Hands on the Deck!

A couple of weeks ago Kyle and Eric came over and stained the deck . . now we are ready for a 4th of July bbq (well at least the deck is ready)!

Illini Basketball Camp

Eric and Matt were able to attend Illini basketball camp last week. They stayed in a dorm on the University of Illinois campus and spent their days in all things basketball. They were there Wed-Sat. Eric and Matt were able to play with some of the Illini basketball players and Coach Weber. They had a great time - thanks Grandma and Grandpa!

Staying in Bromley Hall.
