As our friend Dave Carey has pointed out is has been a long time since Shannon or I have posted on our blog and I must admit with the world of 140 character tweets and our work lives as busy as they have been it has been difficult to find the time to sit down and ponder what to write. This weekend however was again a busy one and I have found it would be easier to update with a blog posting then 6 separate tweets.
I was asked to play in our softball league All-Star game and as I got to the field found out I was our starting catcher, a great suprise. Remember I’m the little guy on the softball field and typically those weighing in under 150lbs are the youth who’s dad is the coach, so I was excited to be able to be representing our team in the game. I opened the first 3 innings of the game by batting 2 for 2, scoring once and tossing out one man stealing second. Our team won 16-10 and all around we had a great night of softball.
Then today was Karen & Lee (Dancy) ’s wedding. I was asked months ago to be an usher in the wedding and took my frequent role of emcee of the reception for those weddings in the church / extended families weddings. We had a great night of fun and had great response from those attending, however, I’ll be keeping my day job.
We’ve been celebrating the summer and will continue to as we stay busy in the michigan weather. Tomorrow begins another busy week and hopefully a trip down to Bashar Salon for a hair cut as this too has been neglected in the busy months of summer. Next weekend will be full of St. Clair boat races, Milkhouse Mobile Grill (at St. Clair Fair) and entertaining one of our new designers from New York City.
I’ve uploaded some new photos via facebook (www.facebook.com/mattgraham) and via the flickr app on the site for your enjoyment. Goodnight All.

Love that you posted! Thank you. And I’m glad that you were able to start as catcher in the All-Star game. Glad things are positive and busy. For some, it’s hard to pass the time with a full schedule. Any time the mood strikes to write, you have readers standing by : )
