A Bunch of Birthdays!!!

Jaime, Holly and Sheila Freed started Birthday realities for 2010! And Lori Freed's birthday turned into a surprise in Ashland at a local favorite Mexican restaurant. You can always check the calendar to see how old she is now but it has been several years now since her big 5oth! It was a fun evening with several surprise friends showing up to celebrate with us. One week later, Adam had his big 16th Birthday and ready for his driver's license! He enjoyed his new phone with his friends since starting school along with Grandma's special Afghan! Congratulations to all for another year of surprises ahead. Birthdays are a reminder that your all special with unique abilities to encourage and bless.

Ashland Basketball

Last evening, Esther and I attended the Ashland High School Jr. Varsity basketball game. Adam, Lori & Bobs Highschooler, is a regular on the team. It was to be a close game and was until the half. But something happened to the team and they came out fired up and built up a 30 point lead which held to the finish! It was exciting to see Adam and his team all fired up! Adam is number 30 and at times seems to be dancing with the opposition! He is very aggressive in his play and has to be careful with fouls but defensively, he has turned into a powerful presence on the court. Next year as a Junior, he'll move up to varsity. It's amazing to see him and all his friends maturing into 6 foot men!
