     It was a rough year that ended in a way that I didn’t think possible. There are so many memories from that indoor and outdoor season that I think about every year. It was the first meet at the bubble on December 18th when my wife called my cell phone. This never h...

Right now I am feeling what a lot of people in the whole country and even the whole world are feeling. Something that I love has just been taken away from me and there is nothing I can do to change it. This picture to me is what I think happened. I feel like we had an...

This time of year is always a special time at our household. With six kids from 5 up to 16, you get all different ranges of emotions when it comes time to open up gifts. It is our youngest that we have the most fun watching. Nothing beats the joy in their expressions a...

As The Byrds wrote in their 1965 hit Turn, Turn, Turn

"To everything, turn, turn, turn

There is a season, turn, turn, turn

And a time to every purpose, under heaven"

Today, we put an end to one season at the 2019 Meet of Champions and yet say onto the next season.
