Lots o' Ball

After an all-too-brief break from organized sports, Opening Day came bright and early today. With three out of four boys playing baseball, it's going to be a busy Spring!!

Luke and Landry drew the short straws and both had games at 8:30 . . . in the morning!! They both played hard and I ran hard back and forth between their 2 games. When it was all over, Landry's team came out on top and Luke's team took a loss. Luke took the loss pretty hard which, interestingly enough, pitted the Rangers (Luke's team) against the Giants. Just like in the World Series, the Rangers came up short!

We had a nice break at home then headed to the baseball field to watch Alex play later in the day. Alex hasn't played baseball in a couple of years so I was kind of interested to see how he would do after such a long break. He did well, making a couple of great catches and hitting the ball. It was a great day for baseball . . . until the cold front (that most of us missed the memo about) rolled through.

The funniest thing I heard today was spoken in the car. Landry (who won today) and Luke (who lost today) were talking about their games and how they did. Landry matter-of-factly says to Luke . . .

Luke . . . I bet if my team played your team, we would definitely win yall!!

Luke respectfully disagreed!!
