I don't want to forget tonight and if I don't take notes, I just might...although I don't think Blake will forget anytime soon! Blake had a baseball game tonight and not only did he hit the snot out of the ball every time he was up, he also made a triple play!!! Technically it was a double play because there was already one out, but he still made the play. There was a runner on first and second. Blake was playing second base. A pop fly was hit over the first basemans head, Blake ran over, snagged the fly ball, tagged the runner who was headed to second, then ran and tagged second base to get the runner who had ran to third base out!! I'm so proud of his quick thinking and skills. At seven years old, I think we have many years of baseball in our future!! Tom and I are coaching his team (ok, actually Tom is - I just keep the book and give him my opinion on who should play where, etc). 😊.
Cora is playing Tball again this year and I am her coach. Luckily Tom, Jessie and Rob are all helping out. It's amazing how many people it takes to keep the attention of nine 4-5year olds!! Cora is doing a great job hitting the ball without a tee!
I'm really going to miss baseball season when it's over. I truly do enjoy it. However, I'm sure Blake will want to continue playing in the yard until the snow flies!
Cora graduated preschool from Peace Lutheran a couple weeks ago. This was bitter sweet for us. It's hard to believe she will be starting kindergarten soon, but she is so ready for it, it makes it a little easier. Plus I won't miss the running back and forth to school twice a day, three times a week!!
Summer vacation is almost here for the kids!! Blake will be done with school on June 9th. We don't have a lot for summer plans except a trip to Chicago. We are going to see the Tigers play at Wrigley Field and take the kids to the American Girl doll store and the Lego store.
