Re: Florida Regional Thank Yous

Every year, I walk into the arena and think about how exhausted I will be after 3 days on saturday night. When I sit and think on saturday night, it feels like thursday morning was 10 mins ago.

After coming back to FIRST for the 6th season, I realize how many friends I have made throughout the years and how much they care. I would hate to go through a list of names and miss someone. You guys already know who you are. Thank you for making 2007 Florida regional a blast for me.

But I do want to extend a thank you out to this one group. I like to call them piggies. Wendy, Mr. Austin, Dan, George, Mike, Mr. Coleman, Mrs. Coleman, Ryan, Mr. Leppard, James, Scott, Caroline, Katie... ok... you get the idea... Team 1902 always welcomes me on their team since I have known them. They are a family and they always gladly took me in whether it was because I needed a team to hang out with, somewhere to stay, to keep me in the right path (I love you Wendy), or if I was hungry... the list goes on. I don't have words to describe the gracious professionalism they show to the FIRST community as well as to any individual that needs anything.

And ofcourse the guys... and the ladies who hung out with me all week/weekend long, I had a blast. Marcus (179), Dan (1902), Wendy (1345... yes he is a guy, there are two Wendys), Imad (612, thanks for coming all the way down here), Tytus (1889), Jaine (1889), Mary (180 alumni), Michelle (1065), Barry (1390), Tessa (233 alumni)... I had a great time with you guys whether it was to run around and chase each other, see each other in action on the field, those late nights that we stayed up and hung out, I won't forget them.

... I was very surprised that Tytus has managed to go through a regional without hurting himself.

and... just incase your mom decides to show you this post Katie, I will have your sugar cookies again next time. =)
