MERRIMENT IN MODESTO

I've been here in Modesto for a few days watching Hannah's activities and helping her celebrate her 16th (never been kissed???????) birthday.  Probably not true!!!

She'd already for her Powder Puff football game against the powerful Senior team.
The weather has been great, not as hot as usual.

Hannah, in center of photo, on line and ready to rumble.  We were so proud of her as she played nearly the entire game.

The Downey H.S. football players were good sports taking on the role of "cheerleaders" and had fun entertaining the huge crowd in attendance for this school fundraiser.  As you can see they are in their "Itialian Tuxedos".

Unfortunately the Senior girls were too much for the Juniors as they won the game.

 The next afternoon Hannah and doubles's partner Savannah took on Gregori H.S. ladies in their tennis competition at the Downey H.S. courts.  It was so fun to see her compete in person and loved to see her kill the ball when she was at the net.  She was disappointed with the outcome as this was her first loss with the team.  But she played great and a 6-1 record so far is outstanding.

I'm heading back to Providence this afternoon, have a looooooong layover in San Fran and won't get home til 1:30 a.m. tomorrow morning.
