The Beginning of the End

It is finally official, the Radke's will be leaving Murray.  Mom and Dad recently announced that they will be retiring this summer and heading south to their house in Foley, AL.  We are so excited for them!  They have always planned for this and worked hard to achieve their goal.  It is very inspiring to watch them over the years and get to enjoy the fruit of their labor.  With that said, it will be a sad day when they pull away from Elm Street- the home Carrie and I have known for over 20 years.
 
Recently, Dad announced his last basketball game at Murray State.  Truly the end of an era.  It wasn't really full public knowledge until they announced it during a pre-game ceremony for Dad.  You really could hear the crowd gasp.  The entire game was emotional for all of us.  It was very nice to hear all the wonderful things everyone said to Mom and Dad that night.
 
The whole weekend was so much fun!  On Saturday, Dad's crazy brothers drove down from Wisconsin to be there!  I hadn't seen them in so long, it was great.  After the game we all went to the Apple and celebrated a great night!
