Pickle Ball Tourney

This weekend Dustin and I went up to the cabin to spend some time with my mom's side of the family. We played lots of games in the nice weather, had a pickle ball tourney complete with a cash prize for the winner (courtesy of Grandma Allen), roasted marshmallows for s'mores, took naps on the hammock, it was a great relaxing weekend.





Grandma even played pickle ball and was really really good. Like, better than me for sure.





But she played tennis in college so I'll blame it on that. My Grandma Allen is amazing, I want to be just like her when I grow up. Not even kidding.

Dustin and Kevin won the pickle ball tourney, of course Dustin wins, "because he is a Robert"(and Roberts are winners according to any of the Robert men. Ask them, Jr. High Pull-up champ, peg board champs, you name it...someone is the champ of it).







My little 12 year old sister, Jayne took my camera because she wanted to take pictures. Turns out she's a little artist. Look at her self-portrait:




Don't you love the pictures she captured?

  2. I think I move about 100% slower than your grandma? How sad is that? I need to hit the gym...or
    p90x, or stop having kids.

    Anyway, I love the photo's so much. JAYNE: You rock!
