Busy

That's how I sum up our lives lately. Four ball games a week is a little taxing, but we are having a blast! Gray's team is currently undefeated! Let me brag on our girl for sec...she played one heck of a fielding game at shortstop on Friday night. She caught one pop fly in the air, gunned a cut off throw from the outfielder to third base for a tag out, and threw three runners out to first, including the final out of the game - a smartly hit grounder with a short hop - she scooped it up like nobody's business and seriously threw a bullet to first base to end the game. She had this big smile on her face as the girls were high-fiving her. Pete ran onto the field to congratulate her and she asked Pete, "Did I look like a Traveller?" (the AAA baseball team out of Little Rock). We play again tomorrow night at 6:00.

Jack's team got stomped last Thursday, 8-2. I think they have won 1 game so far, but he is having fun. He swings a little late on the ball, so most of his hits head toward first base for easy outs, but it doesn't seem to bother him too much...yet. He plays tomorrow night also.

Pete just left for Wisconsin...quick trip...D
