Baseball.....It's what we do

So, for those of you who don't live in our baseball world, we made All-Stars.....I say WE because it involves ALL of us!! Leighton has been so excited, but it is a step up for us....practice everyday, weekend tournaments....next thing you know you will see me riding through down with window paint on my car - Clanton 7 Year Old All-Stars! - Leighton #1......if you see me doing that, please feel free to pull me over and SLAP ME ACROSS THE FACE! In all seriousness, though, it has been lots of fun...just really tiring. We played in our first tournament this weekend and got 3rd place. (Here is where I could go on and on about how we TOTALLY got ripped off....the team that beat up to play in the "championship" game, totally something fishy there....BUT, if I went on about that, you MIGHT think I was a sore loser, and you MIGHT think that I am a little bit biased, and you MIGHT decide not to love me anymore...so I WON'T!) Anyway, where was I, OH, 3rd place! Below is the accepting of the trophy! (I NEVER have the right lens on my camera...I either need the big one and have the little one or vise versa...it is what it is!)




Now, below is what Logan does to keep himself entertained during the game...he has found himself a girlfriend...Addie!!!!! Those two are two peas in a pod....we are so thankful for a friend for him! He can get a tad wild! (hmmhmm...understatement)



Here is the team and Leighton is the orange uniform...my personal favorite! I am already picturing the major league uniform....(HA!HA!HA!)




But, before we move on to All-Stars, let us not forget the big season wrap up for the River Dogs. We finished 2nd place in our league! I'm not sure, but I am pretty sure it had mostly to do with the hot guy coaching and the cute first baseman! Below...the acceptance of the award!






See, I told you baseball is what we do! Bless this next child's heart if it should be a girl! She will come out with a bat and ball.......I'll keep you posted, but I feel sure it will just be more baseball!!!

Oh, I do have a couple of things to add that are not baseball related....just to keep you coming around.....2 funny things said this weekend:

Logan - I was telling him that I needed him to get his clothes onto his body for church...I had to be specific about what to do with them...anyway, I was just about to lose my temper with him, when Leighton decided to save the day and bring the clothes to me, so I could help Logan. I said, "Thank you so much Leighton. That was such a huge help to me. I really appreciate that, BUT I really do need Logan to do the things that I ask him to do. I need him to learn that HE has to do things...that we won't do everything for him...but I do appreciate your help." Then, from the living room I hear Logan say, "Yeah, Leighton, I appreciate your help too!" STINKER!

Leighton - We were riding down the interstate on Sunday when we came up on a big truck that had some type of coat of arms on it. Now, Leighton has just this year begun to participate in RAs at our church...that's Royal Ambassadors in case you didn't know...and they have a coat of arms type thing....so he say, "He mama...that is a Royal Ambassador truck." We just died laughing.....
