My New Address For the Summer:

The Ball Park!

See how Annika tightens her grip on her choice of weapon?

Despite her small size, she can relly hit!
No, really, she can



Isabel on the other hand would do better at designing the softball outfit!
She's at least determined to do her best!
That's all we ask.



Jaren, the experience hitter.

He finds success 50% of the time.

This time, he struck out.

Wow, he's growing up!

I don't think he could look more like his Dad with that smile!!

Being married to my man of choice thrusted me into the world of sports. I had no idea that my summers were going to be filled with baseball bats and gloves. I had no idea I would be driving from one game to another pulling my hair out in between. It wasn't until last year that I realized I had better change my attitude or my summers were going to be miserable. So I ponied up, pulled my hair back, and settled in for the long ride. Changing my attitude has made a world of difference. Some nights are still difficult. Especially when I lose track of time and didn't get dinner started when I should have and the house is still a mess when I return from being gone for 3+ hours. But it's a good life. I hope my kids will leave with good memories of summer. Playing at the playground, watching everyone else play ball and playing themselves.
