LCHS Softball Senior Night..............

Ragan, Carlie and Tiffany were recognized with their families before the game tonight.
I'm pretty sure, the bats they use now.... are taller than they were when I first took action shots of them so many years ago. They have grown into such beautiful young softball players. Good luck to you all of you in the area playoffs............and in everything your future's hold.

Greg

LCHS Championships..............

The Varsity Baseball team clinched their Area Monday in a win over ELHS and the JV girls Softball team won the County Tournament Championship Trophy in a nailbiter over ELHS.

Congratulations Devils.

Thanks Amy S.

The thought crossed my mind.............

as we stood outside the maternity ward gazing at our new baby girl. Everyone was talking about how beautiful she was.....I remeber saying "I bet she will be the most beautiful girl at her SeniorProm"........ Then a lot of years went by.................and then last night as I looked through my viewfinder, there she was............
more beautiful than I ever imagined.
I love you Tay Tay.

Rain couldn't put a damper on this Class..........

The Class of '08 kept the dance floor packed all night! This was one of the most photogenic group of seniors I've ever seen. We ALL had a great time and a wonderful "Night on the Town" was had!

Greg

They were giggling like it was 50 years ago........

thier daughter Lisa had arranged for a friend to bring out his beautiful '57 Chevrolet Bel Aire (which is the model they owned) when they got married 50 years ago. (But Shelby said their's was Yellow). I had a great time photographing the celebration of the 50th Wedding Anniversary of my friends, Hoye and Shelby Moses.

Congratulations.

Greg

Lady Devils are County Champs!..............

I told the Mighty K at 2pm that she was going to pitch and win the final game..........I just knew it. And she did pitch all seven innings and the Lady Devils beat Speake 5-4 to claim the championship trophy.
Thanks in big part to a HUGE 3 run homer by Amber...... Yes Amber.
Congratulations to all of you Ladies and especially Seniors Ragan, Tiffany and Carlie. GOOD JOB!!
Thank you Amy for the photos.

GREG

A beautiful day for baseball...............

Both the Lady Devils and the boys Varsity teams just steamrolled their opponents in the afternoon games Saturday. I saw the Lady Devils win at the county tournament in 4 innings. I left there to go to Hatton where, by the time I got there, the boys had beat Hatton in 5 innings. Then they proceded to smash Lauderdale Co. 18-3 in 5 innings.

His momma missed it, but I got to see Jordon O. hit his first career varsity homerun. Ya'll tell her I got a picture of it.

LCHS JROTC Ball.................................

It's always a pleasure to work with the LCHS JROTC Cadets and their friends and family.
It never fails, when the colors are retired and the coats and ties come off.............. it's party time!

LCHS Seniors...they're last County T championship

Chubby sent me this. I knew someone would have my back.

Greg

LCHS Baseball...............

The Devils are now 9 and 4 and are Coutny Tournament Champions!!

My buddy Chubby send me a few pictures because I haven't been able to get to any of the away games. I did make it to the County T. and got a shot of Wes, who I've found out has pitched back to back no-hitters! I didn't stay at the Tournament finals for a trophy shot; I was freezing to death and the score was 12-0. Maybe Chub got one.......

Greg

Class of '08 and some softball action........

Lisa took the Class picture for me today, I heard it took forever because Coach Owen was acting up..............and I caught some softball action this evening as the Lady Devils Varsity and JV took on West Morgan.

Greg

Well here he is........... his first portrait.........

2 weeks old and very photogenic. I can't figure out who he looks like the most, Zach or Cassie. (see Jan 16th post)'

Greg

I KNEW the game was about to be over..................

...the Lady Devils tied the score in the bottom of the 7th, and had the bases loaded and 2 outs. The visiting teams coach turned the heater on in the dugout, the fans sunk back into their chairs and zipped their coats all the way up; expecting extra innings. But, they didn't know who was up next; it was the Mighty K ..........."theres the strech.........the pitch..........THERES ARE LINE DRIVE TO RIGHT.................DEVILS WIN........DEVILS WIN"

Greg

I can't show you yet................

But I shot some AWESOME Bridal portraits of Callie.

She and Stacy, are getting married in April on some "uncharted desert isle".

I wish I could go.

Check back after Ms. Henderson becomes Mrs. Singleton to see some of them.

Greg

LCHS Who's Who...............

It's always a fun day......(for me) to shoot Who's Who and Clubs at LCHS. That's Clay and Ragan, Mr and Miss LCHS. Thats Daniel, Virginia and Matthew; Valetictorion, Salutetorian, and Historian. (But I forget which is which). Did I spell Salutitorian right???? Validictorian doesn't look right either....

Greg

Thank God................... and all my friends.

We lived through a tornado. Thank God.

I pray for my neighbor Mrs. Faye Nell's family. She didn't survive; her home was destroyed. I can throw a rock to where her home was. I'm thankful Jerry and Michelle and their child are OK. Their house was destroyed.

David, Vickie, Jacob, LaShae, Jade and Kamden are OK.

Mr. Jerry and Jewel Waits are OK. They took a ride in thier house.

My mom, my sister and Danny, Garrett and Maggie are OK.

Chris, Rhonda, Jake and Maggie are OK. Donald, and his mom Marylin are OK. Gordon and Linda. LCHS senior Samantha and her family.We all are so blessed and SO THANKFUL.

I can not possibly thank everyone who has came out here this week and helped up clean up this mess. But I've got to name a few friends that have really helped us.Webb and Logan U. and that big 4020 John Deere, Thank You. Logan A., Kevin L. thank you.Russ, who went and got my airtank filled at 5 points, so I could fix my tractor's flat tire. Daniel J. who took on that big pine tree. Jeff, and Jerry for helping me clean out my frame room.Tina and Gina and Mrs. Cross for doing all that "girls work" (sweeping) for me. Cheryl and Amy calling to check on me.My aunts and uncles who all came to help. Shane and his bobcat. Skippy and Todd who took on that huge oak tree; and actually cut the thing down. John M. and his saw. AJ and his saw. The guy on the bulldozer, Joshep. Mr. Hooper and Myles who ran those trac-hoes. All the students from LCHS who came out and picked up; I know I saw Austin, Les, Jake, Carlie, Collins, those Fagan brothers, Forrest K. (who mostly provided entertainment, which was needed), Bronnie, Kerby, Clay. Across the road I saw Myle T., Brigette, Kaylyn and so many more. I can't remember you all. Sheree for getting me the best deal on a new TV. (and all those Mt. Dews) .And all those people I didn't know! Those guys from the Speake Fire Dept., Browns Ferry Maintence Dept. All the food and drinks! The Trinity Baptist church, Sherry and Belinda and thier mom. (I loved those enchiladas). AND THE FAIRFIELD CHURCH OF CHRIST. I don't know who all brought food thier, but I ate luch there 3 days and it was wonderful. I got into some squash casserole that was AWESOME. Sat. morning, I ate some coconut cake for breakfast that came from the church; I know it wasn't a nutritous breakfast, and that's why I ate it. It sure was good.I know I can't thank you all, but you made so much of a difference in this disaster. Govorner Riley came to the church and Lisa talked to him but I was talking to somebody else and didn't get a picture of them.

We lost almost all of our trees. I can walk out on the porch now and see all the way to Fairfield.I loved my trees.

As a youngster I climbed to the very top of every one of them.For the last 5 days I've been amongst their treetops again. This time with a chainsaw to cut them up into pieces small enough to throw into a pile.ButI will never forget the feeling it gave me to have climbed to the top of one of them.

To me, it was the top of the world.

Basketball Senior Night.................

LCHS recognized all the seniors Thursday night.

Good luck in the Area Tournaments.

Greg

Congratulations to the LCHS JV Boys..........

for winning the tournament championship trophy.

The LCHS B team came up a few points short.

And it was good to see my old team mate Keith Jackson, LCHS Class of 82, win the $100 bucks for LCHS from the Citizens Bank. He still has a pretty good looking shot.

Greg

Cold outside... but warm and toasty on the inside....

That's the way it's been all week at the Lawrence County Tournament.

Greg

He will be here in about 5 weeks........

Cassie and Zach are awaiting the arrival of their son, whom they will name Tucker. Ain't that a sweet picture?
