Whose team are you on?

The winning team...Pathway Puma's Saturday night!! 

So the opposing team won the first game, then we won the second and the third game was neck and neck tied almost the entire time!  My Mom, Sister, Mother-in-law, niece came along to cheer for McKenna and we were definitely loud!  

My Mom got very embarrassed when the ref and the coaches stopped the game suddenly and then shouted to "Please turn your light off" she was taking video and her led flash light on her cell phone which is pretty bright was blinding the referee!  lol  It was pretty funny to everyone but her.  :o) 

Pictured below is McKenna serving the winning point and game/match winning serve!!!  We were so nervous and on the edge of our seats the entire time!  She and her team were amazing!  Will and I are so proud! 

 I'm so blessed to have McKenna as part of our Wright team!  She is a wonderful and good girl always choosing the right and setting a good example for all of us!  Love her!!

Also part of the team is my favorite sister Brandy who came into town Friday night yes I know she's my only sister but she is still my favorite!   

 Brandy and Calvin (love them)

Brandy and McKenna who is taller than her now 

two honorable mentions in the back are Will and his Mom Maggie 

 Brandy and Sophia who took to her instantly which is not like her as she is so shy and stand offish usually to everyone but not Auntie Brandy.

Two other favorite team members of mine...Mom & Gma!  This was Saturday at my great Uncle Delbert & Aunt Joy's 60th wedding anniversary party.  Beautiful ladies!

 All four of us Brandy, Mom, Me and Gma

Saturday was so busy and so full of emotions and excitement....after looking at houses in the morning, going to lunch with all of our in town family, going to the 60th anniversary party, going and watching McKenna and her team win we then went and watched another great team member Richie Davis my cousin win out on the race track! I think we drove approximately 275 miles to boot.

 He went from being taken out by two other cars during the heat race to coming back out on the main race starting in 12th position and ended up getting 2nd place!!  Although he wasn't satisfied with that we loved watching every single exciting minute of it!!!  My Mom and I got in trouble because apparently we were in front of the score keepers and we kept on blocking their view while cheering Richie on so they asked us to move up 2 rows and then the announcer interviewed my Mom for the next 10 minutes and yes she was one proud Auntie!!!  Embarrassed again for the evening but proud of her team!!!  We sure love Richie! 

Tonight when I was looking at facebook I came across this quote and totally loved it!!!   

Why is it so hard for some to choose which team they want to be on?  

I sincerely hope and pray for not only me but my favorite team which is my family and for God's entire team that we all will remember that we NEED to be wearing his jersey at all times and in all places and in all things!  Satan will do everything and anything in his enormous power to  sway us to change jerseys!  He is so slick and sly that he starts pulling us away...but his team will lose, we know this.

I'm so thankful to know that my team is eternal and that no matter what God's team is eternal! 

I love all of my family especially you Will!!!  I

Grandma dear

My Grandma Glenna and her husband Walter in August 2011

My sweet Grandma is an amazing lady always has been and always will be to me!  She is the best Grandma ever!  Every single one of her grand kids which there are 50 and over 70 great grand kids and 5 great greats as of Oct. 11, 2011 think that they are secretly her favorite!  She is 81 years old and looks absolutely amazing!  This is her natural hair she doesn't color it!!!  I hope I follow suit.

She has always been very strong physically and mentally, just amazing but since she had a stroke about 2 years ago she has progressively lost her voice and her strength and can barely talk or stand or walk now.  It is just heart breaking to see her like this.  She barely eats or drinks so she doesn't have to get up to use the facilities because she doesn't like having to be helped.  I can't say I blame her but it's just heart breaking.  Walter her husband sure tries to help her but he has issues with his leg and is 82 years old so he can't help her like he would like to think he can.

Her eyes when you look into them you can see that they have changed even in the past two months from normal happy pretty eyes to scared, fading and almost hopeless eyes.  That's the only way I can describe it...it's just heart breaking.  I'm worried that if she continues this way she won't be around much longer.  :o(
