My Wait is Finally Over - FWF #24

 

Hello, it's Friday and time for another post to link up with Unity Stamp Co's "Friends with Flair". Don't forget to check out their sale this weekend and have you seen their new July 2014 Sentiment Kit, "Hello Thank You"? I loved the kit and thought it would be great to use with this sketch from Sketch and Scrap.

Patterned papers are from MME and stamps are from Unity (Hello Thank You).

I'm still trying to catch up on sleep (I can't sleep more than 5-6 hours/night or my back totally aches) and Marika's All Star softball tournament season has finally begun. Last weekend was their first tournament and WOW, they came out to play ball! They smashed their competition in all four games - 18-1, 10-0, 12-0, and 14-0. It's been especially exciting for us because the coach is very experienced and we don't see any "daddyball" (= major favoritism of the daughter, irregardless of her talent). Marika's being recognized/rewarded for her pitching/fielding ability, which was a far cry from Mika's experience (we were so fed up with "daddyball" in the rec league that she left for travel ball). So, even though Marika will officially be done with softball in a little over 5 weeks (*gasp*), she's going full force and seems determined to finish at the peak of her career, at the ripe old age of nine. LOL!

 

So, I've been waiting for this summer season, because the All Star uniforms really *pop*, don't they? This is my last chance to get great action shots of her playing softball... :)

 

Thanks for visiting and I hope you all have a fabulous weekend! Happy crafting!
