Baseball

Its been awhile since we’ve had any baseball updates.  For the past couple of years, the boy has pitched with training in the form of Tom House videos.  And while he did an okay job, we knew this year he really needed mechanic lessons.  After much searching, we settled on a pitching clinic in Wilmington. …

The day after

We had a successful New Year. With promises of a 60 degree day, we couldn’t wait to hit the beach. Mommy started her day with a run on the Boardwalk We then grabbed the dogs and hit the beach and one of them was not allowed off leash…can you guess which one.  Hint, she may …

Happy New Year

im not sure where 2018 went, but we said goodbye to it.  This year, we headed down to Ocean City to try their First Night.  The one thing that has impressed us is this little beach town does a lot for their community and Nee Year was no different. With seven event locations, there was …

Odds N Ends

We had some issues with the blog the last few weeks. It seems that someone thought it would be cute to add malware to it. We’ve been working to fix it, but for now keeping the post short and sweet. We we went to watch his babysitter play Cherry in The Outsiders. She was outstanding …

B XMAS

Last weekend, we celebrated our first Christmas. We had a great time and I know someone was super happy…major nerf gun and Legos. Could a boy ask for more. We are truly blessed to have such amazing grandparents in his life.

Black Belt

Zachary is officially a black belt. We couldn’t be more proud of him. It’s been a long four years full of two a week practices, multiple competitions and work at home. But we’re most proud that he followed through on a goal.

Basketball

Last week, we officially kicked off basketball.  And somehow, mommy got nabbed to be the head coach….or as the boy says, “mom, you’ll be a great coach, tough but fair”.   The first week of practice went fairly well. Six really good players and one that had never played, but is athletic.   I can …

XMAS Rush

Whew, the last few weeks have been daunting.  School, basketball practice, karate black belt test and, of course, the much anticipated arrival of Christmas.   We’ve been nibbling at our Christmas list, slowly but surely.  The boy’s big wish list this year, nerf and video games.  Where did the days of Tonka Ttucks and Race …

Champs

Last weekend, the boys played in another tournament. This one was much cooler and windier..but the bats were hot.  As in sizzling On Saturday, the boys won both of their games. Z did not pitch, but he did a great job of getting on base…between walking and hitting. On Sunday, he pitched as the closer …

Eagle

Last weekend, mommy finally saw our bald eagle.  For the last few years, he has visited our park during the spring.  Pretty sure he was a juvenile at that point because he still had no white feathers. But this year, he is a thing of beauty.  Full white head and big.  He loves to sit …
