Lets play ball!

Sunday 7th March was a special day in many peoples lives. Not only was it the blessing of Jerusha Pixie Jean Halford, Daughter of Erin and Tobias Halford, in Billingham, England, it was the blessing of Evan Rod Lusty, son of Kendra and Ryan Lusty, brother of Jodi Lusty. This day was one of mixed emotion as Evan Robert Lusty, partriarch of the Lusty household, passed away in December 2007. Sylvia and the girls, Joni, Jodi and Nikki attended the blessing as well as many extended family. Ryan blessed baby Evan and it was wonderful to be present at such an event.

Following the blessing, a taco lunch was served at Ryan and Kendra's. One by one the guests left and sooner or later it was just the Lusty family left. However, before that happened, a delightful family came to visit, the husband being one of Ryan's good friends, and stayed for about an hour. While the children were playing a ball was being thrown and it was only a matter of time before someone was injured and that person was me!! If you have ever had the unfortunate experience of having a ball tossed into your eye you will know that it is not a pleasurable one!! After applying some ice for several minutes, followed by at least 10 minutes of eye watering, I could finally open my eye and it took a further hour to regain its dignity. However, all is well and there is no bruising! Thank goodness for ice!!
