Southern Illinois Football, Birthdays, and Artwork

These guys went 4-1, winning the Silver Bracket Championship at the SIU 7 on 7 Passing Tournament (18 player maximum) last Saturday. We lost the first game - seemed a little nervous and unsure - and then won 4 in a row. We defeated EFFINGHAM in the 3rd game of the day. Kaid and I were very nervous about that one! The Terrier players and coaches had a really fun day. Apparently it was the first time that they have ever won a game in this tournament!


Jensin - proudly displaying her special birthday crown, created by Miss Baleigh of course.

Some of Bay's SIU Craft Shop artwork. She had the best SIU bear painting - fo' sho'!




Bay's hand - first put in wax, then pulled off of her hand, then filled with porcelain and the wax was peeled off. Pretty cool!



The Art Camp kids made the Museum News. They are supposed to be posted on the SIU website but I haven't seen it yet. I will send the link when the pics are posted.



Baleigh made MaMa this fabulous birthday cookie. She made a rough draft of the decoration on paper, just like she learned from Aunt Lou. Baleigh and I are travelling to Effingham today to celebrate MaMa-The-Great's Birthday!!
Enjoy the 4th Everyone! Be careful Rob Pillers! :)
