Fun with the softball team

We look forward to the Annual End-Of-Season BBQ @ the Powell's house each year. Though, due to football, we missed a few after getting there late. Steve & I used to work together @ Fidelity & have been playing softball together for about five years now. These two, Peggy & Steve, are certainly a fun couple..they are ALL ABOUT living life to the fullest & for being extremely dedicated Utes Fans! And how fitting there last name would be Powell since they often like to take the boat to Lake Powell. Another small world moment came when I was looking at their wall of photos (which I love & have since done on my own basement wall :}), and saw Peggy with long time friend from school, Jennifer Faber. Funny to have friends/associates that you have known for years end up being friends for a long time too!

Humm...I wonder where they got this sign from?! Perfect as it leads to their own personal museum! :}

And you'll see what I mean here by extremely dedicated Utes fans. Here's a few examples...
Like their recent stonework added to the yard (which they've done an fabulous job with by the way)

Or there "always lit up U" on the wall...

Personally, my favorite though is their play room/bar area. Which, as you can see, is decorated appropriately, including the bar itself that is full of memorabilia underneath the poxy glass.

And this isn't all of it either. I didn't get the garage or his den that is ALL Utes! :}

Even down to the fence, you have no doubt they are proud of their state/school! :}
Their daughter, Alex (on the right) & Lexi are sure fun teammates!
And it always helps to have the Woman's Leading RBI hitter on your team too! Way to go Lexi! :} Here she is proudly displaying her trophy! (OK, we made her, she was too proud :})
Our kids are always well entertained at their house!
Oh, summer fun...gotta love it! It sadly comes & goes way to quick! Fortunately we get to start Fall Ball all ready this week...so, it's not officially all over yet! :}
