R.I.P Grandpa Griner


R.I.P Grandpa Griner... Today at 3:20 he passed. His last 5 months have been super hard for him, always in pain and taking life a minute at a time. He lived a wonderful life and taught us all a ton. I feel like since I started to spend time over there to help take care of him it has made me grow a TON!! It has taught me that life isn't fair and goes the way you want. I know people always say that and that you hear it all growing up but he is the one that made it reality. He was an amazing person and I have absolutely loved getting to know hom and hearing all of his stories.
Grandpa,
Thank you for all you have done here in this life and all you have done for me. All of the stories and life lessons you taught me will stay with me forever. You are one amazing guy and everyone that has ever met you will have something that they took away from you. I am so happy you are with Grandma now and your wish has come true. Have fun with her
Love Kirsi

ATHLETES!!!




People don't play sports because its fun. Ask any athlete, most of them hate it, but they couldn't imagine their life with out it. Its part of them, the love/hate relationship. its what they live for. They live for the practices, parties, cheers, long bus rides, invitationals, countless pairs of different types of shoes, water, Gatorade, & coaches you hate but appreciate. They live for the way it feels when they beat the other team, and knowing those two extra sprints they ran in practice were worth it. They live for the way they become a family with their team, they live for the countless songs they sing in their head while training all those hours. They live for the competition, they live for the friends, the practices, the memories, the pain, its who they are. It's who we are. WE ARE ATHLETES...
