Ujamma: A Little of This and That

I was blessed with a new camera since my other camera that's not even 1 yr. old died and I have some pictures to share. Its a Kodak Easyshare M380 10.2 megapixel and I love it. It has a large view screen which was a must for me.

My first subject to test out the new camera was Sunny since she was the only one willing to indulge me so I could play with my new camera. Of course, she was laying on the living room floor chewing on a chew stick and happy to be doing so. In case you don't know by now..........I love my DOG!!! She's my girl! She's spoiled rotten, barks in jealousy when anyone hugs or kisses me and is great with the boys. I should say she's great with Kota since Jordan has very little to do with her. He's a typical teenager...it's all about him. Kota adores her!

I was at the ball park last night and sat in the rain watching Kota play against the Cubs which were also an undefeated team until they played us! We won 8-3. Kota played awesome. He played shortstop then first base and made the game ending catch with a pop fly that he had to run for. We are so proud of him!

We are also very proud of Jordan who graduates from 8th grade next Tuesday. He informed me yesterday when I picked him up from school that he is going to play soccer in high school. I have asked him off and on for the last year if he thought he would play in high school and he said he didn't know. We left the decision totally up to him and he said he signed up to play when the high school soccer coach came to the junior high yesterday. I guess the coach is super nice and all the boys really like him.

More good news! The head high school basketball coach resigned! Yeah! The community was thrilled to hear the great news. This coach has met lots of opposition from parents and his coaching style and the way he interacts with the boys is.....how should I put it? Less than desirable and I'll leave it at that. I have been praying he would resign since Jordan is definitely gonna play basketball in high school. I really didn't want to deal with this coach for 4 yrs. and have Jordan not play or quit because he wasn't one of the "chosen" ones! Anyway, lots of good things happening! And summer is just beginning. Oh and in case I haven't given an update on weight loss I'm down 122 lbs! Woooo Hoooo!

Here are some pics I took with my new camera.
