Our Faith, Our Family, & Our Friendships.

   We are so proud!   Ben practiced and practiced,  sometimes till his arm hurt!     He went to practice with his team every day,  and then several nights, he came home and practiced more on his own!     And it paid off,   He increased his throw by 3-5 feet between regionals and states!  At Regionals, he was barely throwing 25 feet,  and by the time states came around, he was throwing 27-30 feet consistently!       And this Young man, took 3rd place,  Missing 2nd place by only 6 inches!        He was so proud of himself as we are of him!      He's already talking of next year!   

 It's upon us.       5 nights a week practices.   Rain or shine,   wind or rain.    Ben Has faithfully gone to every single one.    Sometimes begrudgingly,   but most of the time with great enthusiasm,    and yesterday was the first track meet of the year.  And Ben ROCKED IT!   He ran the 100 yard dash,    took first in his heat!   He ran 200 yard dash and also took first in his heat    He qualified for the finals in both rounds!  And In the end he took 5th and 6th place over all! He ran the 4x100 with a few buddies from school and together they took second place!!  And he went out for shot put ,   and took 1st place in the whole thing,  throwing his record at 25 feet 7 inches!    He came home soooo excited and pumped!      As a momma I was so proud of him!    ♡♡
