We got SAS! Tonight was just such a cool thing to watch. Trevor has taken some strength and agility classes with these former pro athletes. Tonight...Darren participated as well. He was listening and following directions. He was giving these BIG guys great eye contact and was trying everything that was asked of him. Darren was watching his peers and participating to the best of his ability. We were so proud.
The 10U Hammerheads held their first annual golf even at Jupiter Country Club on Saturday.
It was a gorgeous day and the course was awesome. Darren rode with us while Trevor handed out beverages to the golfers.
Thanks so much to everyone for supporting Trevor! Here he is with his Tee Sign.
And we thought it was appropriate to take this picture of Darren:)

His shirt says: Get REAL: I'm a Learner and A Leader....very true.

The First Tee is a great program and as you will see, Darren is improving!
Yes, it happened. I turned 40. I decided to take this milestone in stride and make a movie about it. Click on the link below to laugh at the various hairstyles and massive eyebrows that I have overcome. https://www.dropbox.com/s/qqxy0pz4wow67gs/Pam%2040.mov
I love the quote above, and have decided that it will be my inspiration for this year. We CAN all change the world...why wait?
My girls took care of me on the big day.
No more SUV....time for a big girl car.
Two sport Hall of Famer
Great Family
I've had my name in lights
My pride and joy
I was 30 when the boys were born. 10 years later I can say that I have learned more about life than I could have ever imagined. I actually like being 40. I feel old:) but I am at a point where I am ready for the future. Ready to dream big. Ready to dial into my purpose and allow it to evolve.
I recently have been watching and enjoying the Title IX specials on ESPN. If you haven't seen them, look for them. They did a wonderful piece on Pat Summit. Watching it inspired me deeply. It was wonderful for me to hear the journey of a strong, tough, and extremely passionate woman as she stormed through the world of sports. I love truly love sports, and I like I have said a million times, I believe that sports teach life lessons. I continue to be thankful for the many they have taught me. My competitive spirit is still alive and kicking and my determination to succeed is strong.
I consider myself very lucky that I love my job. I am blessed with the opportunity to work with some amazing kids and their families. To share what I know, and to learn what I don't.
And obviously, feel very lucky to have a wonderful family and supportive friends. 40 is good. 40 is really good.
