ALTA called . . .

and they'd like to revoke our memberships! OK, not true (only because ALTA can't really do that), but it was another poorly played match by Peter and I. So poor, that the people we played didn't even know how to keep score during the tiebreaker and we still lost . . . that bad. All I have to say is . . . wow. The upside, we got some super cute pics from this beautiful afternoon:




I wish we could add some pics of Maddie, but she was not picture worthy today. I know, hard to believe, but it's true . . . she played so hard at the courts that she nearly busted her lip tripping over her own foot and we're very thankful for John who happened to catch her as she fell off a brick wall, which looked to be about 4 ft tall. Both of which occurred while we were playing the most pitiful match of our lives. It was a tough afternoon for us all . . .

On a different note, I have been collecting Maddie's artwork from school over the last couple of years. And I have FINALLY figured out what to do with it! We're just starting, but check it out . . . I think we may just have the next Picasso on our hands!

This table was my parents before they got married. So, it's around 33 years old. We spray painted it with white paint and then chalkboard spraypaint on the top and Maddie LOVES it! How fun! Now I just need chairs for it . . . if only my wonderful sister could part with the matching chairs . . . hmm . . .



She got all of us but Mason (which she was attempting at the bottem)

Well, it was a busy weekend! So, I part with this in mind . . .

I'm sure ALTA won't give you the boot just yet. I give credit for playing with hou husband. I would never speak to Andrew again if we played together!

I love checking in on your family, they are so precious. It is so nice to be able to keep in touch. Thanks for keeping up with Carson, we will have to get the kids together soon!
