Life ...

It's cloudy and looks like it could rain.  The forecast is saying showers on and off and we could use some wetness again.  I would love to mow the grass today sometime between the sun and rain if it's possible.?.

The kids were off to school today healthy and blessed.  It was fried sausage links and toasted cinnamon swirl bread for their breakfast.  Ashlyn woke up while they were getting dressed and brushing their teeth.  She finished off the extra links and toast crumbs!  :)

Last night, Matthew had another little league game.  It was so exciting.  The first two practices were so cold and I wasn't sure how this was all going to work with Matthew not knowing hardly anyone on his team.  When we arrived they were given their new team shirts and hats and that was excitement for all the boys right off the bat!  (No pun intended!  :)  )  A lot of the parents were there for this game and I knew lots of them.  Even though the boys are still getting acquainted, they did great!  The Rookies played so well!

Matthew got three good hits.  He played second and third base and then right center outfield.  (They switch positions every inning.) 






The Rookies played against the Wildcats.  They both played good but the Rookies lost 10 - 7. 

After the game, Matthew was so hungry.  I'm not sure if it's an excuse or really for stomach filling purposes, but he thought he just had to have a cheeseburger from the snack stand.  They smell so good and I think maybe we just have a supper at the game sometime.  :)

During Matthew's game, Hadassah met up with some friends in her class at the park and went running.  She is running a mile today at school in practice for track-n-field next week.  She wanted the extra practice.  Her and Laurie ran almost 2 miles at the park.  So, she was hungry too.

The girls were into some 'fries', so we also swung by McDonalds for a large order of fries.  They were all happy, dirty and munching on the way home.

We miss Mike not being around, but we will survive!  :)  He's taking a 'Public Speaking' course in Orlando, FL.

Good job Matthew on your game and great running Hadassah!  I am so proud of you both!!!
