Memory Game

1. Add a comment on my blog. Leave one memory that you have had with me(Sharon). It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about us, we'll assume you're playing the game and we'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

A Sunflower among all of the weeds and brush

I have started a gratitude journal and every evening before going to sleep I think of at least 3-5 things that I have been grateful for during the day. There have only been one or 2 days that I've written down only one thing but most days I can think of several. This morning the first thing I saw when I looked out the kitchen window was this sunflower growing amidst all the weeds still left in the backyard where the huge blue spruce had once stood before the big windstorm last January. I am certainly grateful for that sunflower; it teaches me that even when things aren't always great in my life that I can find at least 1 great thing to be grateful for.

This one small sunflower will be the number 1 thing in my gratitude journal this evening and I can even think of several more for today as well.

This garbage disposal was on my list last week. Dad installed it but we had been without one for about 2 weeks. I love this disposal!*S*

Rob all dressed up to help at a wedding at the Country Club

On Saturday evening, one of Rob's friends's sister was getting married at the Country Club and Rob was asked if he'd help "shuttle" guests out to the wedding location. I thought it sounded fun to drive them in the golf carts! Anyway, Rob has been wanting to wear his new boat shoes and hadn't had a chance yet so he took the chance on Saturday. I thought he looked very "clean" and neat. He said the wedding was nice and even saw my friend, Val Cochran and her husband Harold.

lia sophia show

I sell lia sophia jewelry and have been doing it since last November. It is odd that I would even sell jewelry since I never really wore it before(that's what they all say *S*)but I was kind of looking for something to do that wasn't a punch-the-clock job with more flexibility. I am learning alot about jewelry, people and myself. My sister, Debbie, also sells it in Texas and we are always (daily and sometimes more than once!LOL) sharing information and ideas. The company has come out with a new way to showcase the jewelry; it's called Trend Trays. This was my first attempt at the show I had last night. The "elegant" tray (I have taken their ideas and "morphed" them into my own. "elegant" was not one of their ideas *S* I had to simplify it!

Okay, Debbie, this is the tray with all the golds. I used that mirror and sorry, you can see my hand. It's alot more simple than the company is showing.

If you look left of the photo of Stacey London you'll see the "naturals" tray. I like the seashells but the bottom needs something.

This is just a "shot" of part of the table. It's a little difficult to see with dining room chairs in the background. Do you like the gold tablecloth?

This is the credenza that Julie(hostess) had. I liked it without a tablecloth; the wood was really pretty. You can see the Red Carpet P.R. on the left, the "free" jewelry next to that, that no one LOVED enough to book LOL, the slides and you can see the anew and the Trish hanging from the mirror.

What do you think?

Saturday morning/ 2nd Round Russell Cup

Saturday morning started the 2nd round since they played on Friday night. Rob's team lost on Friday night. This is the first drive of the day.

Rob's friend, Jeff Nehr played in the tournament as well. He is a nice guy.

Chipping out of the bunker; Rob's pretty good at that.

This one of the views from the course. The course borders a wheat field and it had been harvested as of Saturday morning. You can see the grain elevators.

Rob had to get it out of the tall grass and on to the green; he didn't make that one. It took another shot to the green and he wasn't happy about that.

Saturday afternoon round/ russell cup

Some of these photos are pretty self explanatory. Just different golf shots.

Rob's "drive" from the back. You can only take so many photos of the same thing and then I have to find different angles!

During the tournament, Drew Reinland was driving around keeping track of how the Vets teams were doing. You have to be 18 years old to play in this tournament or Drew would have been playing as well. I think he'll be a Junior this year.

On the 10th hole you walk past the parking lot; this is Rob's car.

There is a Mulberry Tree on the course that people pick and eat the berries. Dad picked a few so I could taste them. They look like blackberries except that they're a dark purple and I didn't think they tasted quite as good as blackberries, but it was an interesting experience eating wild berries off a tree on the golf course!*S*

Saturday afternoon round / Russell Cup

Saturday afternoon was team play. Rob's partner on this round was Jeff Reinland, who is a very good golfer. They actually blew the other team away!*S*

Driving the ball.

Setting up for the putt

This man's name is Howard Crosby. He is Bing Crosby's nephew. Nice man and right after his drive on the 1st tee, he must have pulled a calf muscle or something because he was in so much pain that he was on the ground! I almost took a photo of it to blog but thought it might not be very nice of me. He limped around most of the 18 holes, but I hear he was better on Sunday because he won his round.

I don't know why I put 2 photos up of Rob and Jeff, but just a little fyi, Jeff is Max and Drew's Dad. (for all of you who know who they are!LOL)
