Saturn V Rocket Lego Build

Now I have two centerpieces on my dining room table (the Tower Bridge and Saturn V Rocket) until we find a forever home for them somewhere in this house...LOL😆😂🤣!!!

Headshot of the Day at the Tournament

These are the original videos from the competition. Timothy was the shortest one in his group. The first two matches Timothy is in the blue chest and head gear and in the third match he’s in the red chest and head gear. Enjoy.

The T-shirt

Timothy got a t-shirt at the competition yesterday. And he wanted to put this verse on it.

S.E.T. Championship 2018

T'Money, as his coaches affectionately call him, won Silver today at the tournament. He fought hard and did his best and that’s all we ever ask of him. He had fun and an all around great experience with this tournament. He learned so much today that he can take home with him and train harder and return next year and get Gold😁.

The other guys T’Money fought towered over him.

Tim's 2025 Accomplishments!

Tim had a huge year in 2025, moving through three weight classes. He began in the 61 kg division and finished in the 71 kg division, with the June weight category update shifting the weight classes. Despite all the transitions, Tim made tremendous progress. He earned 4 Gold Medals, 4 Silver Medals (6 Silver finishes) & 3 Bronze Medals (4 Bronze finishes) - which were his 1st USA National Level Medals. To top all that off he is the record holder for the snatch & total in the Youth 71kg division for WSO Carolinas. A standout year filled with growth, experience, and momentum for Tim.

Heaven Gained a Hero Aug. 16, 1935 to May 16, 2024 - 88 years old

It's hard to forget someone who gave us so much to remember. Pop (Franklin Eugene Neal) was born in Ashland, KY. He graduated Thomas R. Brown High School and was a proud Army National Guard Veteran. He loved cars and working on them. He loved racing them with his boys, Jeff and Scot. He could fix just about anything. If he didn't have a tool for something then he'd make it. He valued family above everything. He loved traveling and going to amusement parks with his kids and grandkids, especially Disney World. He will forever be missed and forever be in our hearts! (this is not his official Obit)
