Spring 2015

We have been really busy at the Worley house this spring!

Greerson received the triple crown of Scouting after attending camps at Northern Tier in Minnesota, Philmont in New Mexico and Seabase in Florida.
Very few Scouts are able to attend three National Camps for Boy Scouts. Greerson also completed the final merit badge in order to apply for his Eagle Scout Badge. He will be going before the Eagle board in the early Fall.

We spent Easter at the ranch with Christa's family. This meant new family pictures.




 Greerson completed his Sophomore year in May. Daryl completed the spring semester at Liberty University with 24 semester hours toward his Doctorate. The first summer session he will be taking Statistics and then heading to campus in Lynchburg, Virginia for a week long intensive course the end of June. Christa is working as hard as ever and got a promotion at work. She is now a Managing Director for BKD, ltd. They gave her a new Ipad with her name engraved on the back at the annual meeting of the company. Greerson was quite impressed by this since her got he Ipad mini.

Different views of Baylor's new McLane Stadium. We have enjoyed the new view!

We have been really busy this Fall. Daryl started back to school at Liberty University working on his Doctorate. Greerson is marching with the high school band. It appears that all we did was go to Baylor football, but that was a big deal since they have the new stadium this year. We have season tickets again and really enjoy going to the games. Daryl's niece Robin Young got married in October at a beautiful wedding at a ranch near Austin. Greerson's band advanced to the Area marching contest in San Antonio in October so between the wedding and Baylor football and Band we have been actively engaged every weekend.

Opening of Mclane Stadium at Baylor University

We headed out to Baylor to witness the inaugural game at the new McLane Stadium at Baylor University. It was an amazing experience. Our parking lot was at the Ferrell Center so we walked along the river to the stadium. It is amazing how they have cleaned up the river and made such a beautiful walkway. Christa took a picture of Greerson and Daryl across the river from the stadium as we walked along the river. After we crossed the river on the pedestrian bridge we ran into Daryl's cousin Cathy Reynolds and her husband. They had come down for the game. Their son is at Baylor this Fall. We were a little early and it was incredibly hot so we found a spot in the shade and enjoyed the view of the sailgaters. Once we were inside the stadium it was amazing! There were concession stands for each section and video monitors so you don't miss the game action while your in line for food. Before the game began there were several awesome moments. The presentation of the new HD video board was awesome. They showed a history of Baylor Football just before the players took the field running between the Baylor Line and under and arch of fire. The Baylor Line looked huge coming into the stadium. The Band was absolutely amazing. They performed part of the show that was performed at the opening game of Floyd Casey Stadium. The most amazing moment was when it came time for the coin toss and President George W. Bush actually tossed the coin. It was a most memorable time. The best part was that Baylor won by a large margin.
 This was an incredible moment! President George W. and Laura Bush

Back to School

August was an extremely busy month. Greerson was in Minnesota for two weeks at the end of July and came back on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning summer band started. Daryl's textbook that he wrote last spring came of the presses August 15 in time to be used this Fall.  August 18 Daryl started back to school to earn his doctorate. He is attending Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. August 26 Greerson started his Sophomore year at Midway High School and Daryl returned to work at Navarro College and Texas A & M University-Commerce. We all enjoyed the first football game with a trip on a yellow school bus to Austin to play the Lake Travis Cavaliers. Christa and Daryl were chaperones for the band. The football team won the game and the band presented a great performance. The only complaint was we didn't get home until after 2am!
