LAX Awards

Last night we attended the Lax Awards Banquet at STHS. It was nice to see all the guys get recognition for such a wonderful season. The seniors were excited and hoping to move on to the All-State game so they can play one more game with their competators.

Dale received the Sportmanship Trophy from Coach Stewart. It was an emotional night for us, it was hard to do this event without Gerry there to enjoy the accomplishments of our son. Gerry was so proud of Dale, no matter what he was involved in, his dad always encouraged him to give it his all. It became a big part of my therapy to go to the games and do some cheering and yelling. Man, I can't wait until football starts now, although yelling at home is not quite the same, huh?

Last weekend, Dale, Cory & Barry went to the UD/UMBC lax game. While they were there watching the 2nd game of the day, I was online ordering them tx's to the semi-final round at M&T Stadium/Ravens Stadium this Saturday. They are ready to do some tailgating, and girl watching too. (Checkout the photo of the girls in front of them) I am torn between who wins, since UD plays Johns Hopkins. I guess it doesn't matter, they both deserve to win.

Oh yeah, Dale got a job with the UD Sub-station in Georgetown. He actually started on Tuesday after school. What an opportunity for him to work with this group of people. Not sure which area he will be in, but it will have alot to do with farm work, gardening, and experimental crops and such.

Nuff about us, how is everyone doing? It has finally turned to spring, my head and eyes can attest to that. Take care, love ya lots. DD

He sure is a ray of sunshine for all of us. As I told you earlier today, he has handled all of this so maturely and probably better than some of us so called adults!! Thanks for sharing the info about the night and the pics. Makes us feel like we are there even when we aren't. Love ya.
