Basketball / FBLA

Michael just finished a great season of basketball. He is #42 in the photo below. I wish we had other basketball photos, but I had to settle with this one from our school site. (The first photo is of him by our fence, we were sampling some Sr. picture options.)













I wish we had his stats record, but we are happy to have this one newspaper headline from February 11, that was given to us by Doris Jelmberg, one of our awesome neighbors. The article starts out like this; "Michael Hebdon had another huge game on Saturday and, consequently, the Royal Knights will play at least one more day. Hebdon recorded a double-double of 24 points and 14 rebounds, leading the Knights to a 69-64 win over the Wahluke Warriors...."
I found a different news article online from the game we played previous to the game mentioned in the above article and it stated that Michael had 21 points and 11 rebounds for that game.
They have played their last game now, which was against Goldendale, and we lost by 4 points. It was not one of our best games, but we sure had some good games previous to it. Congratulations to Michael for being such a great asset to his basketball team!
As for FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America) - More Congratulations! Michael went to a competition today and did very well and will continue on to state. More about that later.

Backin' up a bit. Summer 2007 We couldn't leave it out!

This is the beautifully delicious icecream cake
that Megan made for Elaine's birthday. Okay,
there are fourty-something candles on that
cake. There could be *another prize for the
person that gets that right.


This is what the inside of the cake looked like.
I wish we could let you taste it - but, we enjoyed
every bite of it ourselves. *Can you tell us what
the icecream flavors are and what the sides of
the cake are made out of?

Christmas 2007. We loved having Gregory and Adena and their kids with us and getting more acquainted with our grandchildren.

Example Speaks Louder Than Words

Gregory and Adena told us about a blog they were creating, and I immediately thought of how I would enjoy seeing it, but also of how overwhelming it sounded (and there was no way that I would be able to do such a thing, no matter how awesome it sounded).

The first time on their blog I saw the photos, but was in a hurry and couldn't take much time to read the words. This morning I read it all and enjoyed every minute of it - what a wonderful site, what a wonderful service, especially to those who live such distances as we do and are unable to see each other very often.

I was impressed with the talent shown in their blog and realize that it is prepared mostly by Adena, the woman our oldest son loves so dearly. We continue to see her talents as the years go by and see how she is truly becoming a wonderful mother as well as a wonderful wife for our beloved son.

Reading their blog made me think about creating one for our family and the more I read the more I realized that I wanted to create a blog too. Could I be a part of something so exciting????? I decided to try. So, here goes... But first, many thanks to Adena and Gregory for the great example.
