Another Game Ball!









Wow, Blake's been a lucky kid this season! He's received 2 of the 10 game balls! The first was for a great pop-fly catch and this second one was for scoring the winning run last game. Don't let the picture fool you, the no smile thing is all a part of this "I'm too cool to smile" pre-teen thing he's going through. Trust me, he's thrilled!

That's the good news. The bad news is his team got creamed last night. Like 2-8, ya CREAMED. They had already beaten this team before, so I'm not sure what the deal was. That brings the season stats to 6-3, with one more game to go.

The kids have been busy this week with EOG (End Of Grade) testing. The 5th graders have the science portion to do today and that will be it.

Sam flies out to Ohio this afternoon. Private jets with company issued luggage nonetheless! He and his guys have been working their tails of to tear apart and reassemble trucks. Sam has been to Staples 3 or 4 times in the past two weeks getting supplies to organize all his papers, you know him. He seems to be getting more comfortable every day. His team races at Mansfield on Saturday. Tune in and cheer them on!

Tell my little Blake man that Nana and Papa our sooo very proud of him! Wish we were there to see him play. Most of all, we are glad he is relaxing and enjoying himself. I told you it just takes time and practice. Way to hang in there. He is a very smart guy and can do anything he puts his mind to do.

Tell my sweet baby girl she is getting too cute and growing up way to fast.


Good luck on your tests and study hard.

Can't wait to see you all!
