Never fear--- I am finally posting something new. I know some of you have given up on me and for that I am sorry. Playing softball/baseball/t-ball on multiple leagues five nights a week is proving to be quite hard. But this weekend we finally had a relaxing, nothing on the calender, "what should we do" type weekend. WWWOOO HOOO!!!! So how did we choose to spend it? You know it-- at the ball park. We went to a Bees game on Saturday and the new Narnia-Prince Caspian movie on Monday. And guess what baseball fans... we caught our first home run ball ever!!! Oh yes, it was hit out to the general admission area in right center field where I had strategically placed our blanket. Brayden actually almost caught it out of the air, another guy knocked it down, and Brandon made quick grab before some big teenage boys could take him out!! It was SWEEEETTTT!!! We tried to get it signed after the game by the player that hit it, but unless your willing to wait in the parking lot for a couple more hours after the game for him to come out to his car, there is no way. So we settled for the bumble bee's signature. The kids were happy anyway.
Can you believe another year of school is behind us? Me neither. How sad, my babies are growing up. Maddie had a fun year and did wonderful in all her subjects. She is starting to show a little bit more of her social side, as I had a couple of chances to watch her interact on the playground. Brayden did well, but he is usually a straight A's student, so this year when he struggled a little bit trying to find a balance between school work and recess/sports Brandon and I had to give him a couple of "talks". He just doesn't understand that it's not pass/fail anymore. A C grade shows either your level of understanding or your focus and diligence in class. He is absolutely capable of getting straight A's, he just doesn't do his work in class. Ugh! only 9 more year of this. :) I love being a mom.
I don't have any sweet pictures of Brayden and Maddie playing ball yet, because either A: I forget to bring the camera. B: I am score keeping or C: I am coaching. I will be sure to get some soon and let you see how cutey cute they look playing ball.
