2009 D.I. Globals Recap!!!

We are back from Knoxville & oh so exhausted but we are slowly recovering. Callie's team finished 15th out of 60 teams. They did good but could've done SO much better (they totally bombed on their instant challenge) ... it's a great finish when you consider they are 15th in the world ... rock on girls!!! I didn't take as many pictures as last year but still took plenty. Enjoy!

Fantastic pics! Callie is so beautiful!

I, too, really enjoyed the Taco Bell pic. I would totally go to Taco Bell more often if we had our sauce displayed so nicely...fabulous.

The tree pics are great.

Fun times. Glad your home.

I enjoyed reliving Tennessee through your pictures!

It's nice that our weather has finally caught up to the nice weather we experienced in TN!
