Here you see Blaine catching. I think this is his favorite position because it is as close as you can get to being a goalie and it keeps him busy. Blaine doesn't like to stand around....
Gavin however is loving it and is doing quite well. He recently hit a homerun!! First one on his team to do so! He usually plays short stop and has done really well batting. I think this may be his top sport..... When we get home from games he goes in the yard and wants to do more! Yesterday he got home from his game that went into 2 extra innings only to throw with Papi for 45 minutes and then hit SIX buckets of balls.... The kid has heart. It is very cool to see him loving a sport and doing well in it.
Even little Emily is loving ball! She is on the Yankees t-ball team and does such a good job! She typically hits coach pitch and has made a play or two! Here is a pic of her with the game ball. She sure did earn it this game! She went 3/3 and made 2 outs! I think she takes after Gavin with baseball! :)
Mom and I cooked all morning! That was fun. I have several friends that have lost their moms in the past couple years so it was very special for me to be able to spend such quality time with my mom. I am grateful for every chance I have!
We, my brother and his wife, my sister and her fiance, Scott and I and ALL of our families got together and had picutres made for mom this year. I heard her say it was the best present ever! That is pretty awesome! I love you momma. Happy Mother's Day!
To each of you celebrating this day, with our without your mom, I hope you will take a second to hug your kids a little tighter and find time to count every little blessing. Shew, my cup overflows!
