Bayside Academy Sports Hall Of Fame

This past weekend my family and I attended an event that we will never forget, especially me! I was inducted into Bayside's sports Hall of Fame for swimming, which was a huge honor! I started swimming at the age of five and never stopped. I swam for a local year around swim team and in 7th grade started swimming for my high school. Our schools swim team started out with only two swimmers ( me and my friend Erin). Swimming was my passion and my dedication to the sport has paid off in my adult life. I could not have done it without my wonderful parents who were my biggest fans and my little brother who attended all of my swim meets. I owe my successful swimming career to them! I also had a fabulous coach named Terry Martin who presented me at the Hall of Fame banquet. I truly cherish our friendship and was honored that he could be there last night. It truly was a night that I will never forget!

Labor Day Weekend At The Lake

This past weekend we loaded up our car and called some friends to join us and we were off to the lake. Jon's family has a house on Lake Wedowee and it is the perfect spot for relaxing. Rachel and Bubba brought their little boy named Mason and he was precious. We all enjoyed swimming, paddle boarding, laying out, riding in the pontoon boat, playing pool, eating yummy food and sleeping in. Saturday night we watched both of the BIG games...Roll Tide & War Eagle!!! We had a house divided so we flipped back and fourth a lot!! We are all so happy football is back! Sunday we all went up to Cheaha State Park and looked out over the highest point in Alabama. It was so fun! Here are a few pictures from our trip:
