Baseball Fever

So Baseball season has officially started!! My boys are super pumped to be out there again. Since moving, I think they have felt a little out of the loop so to speak. Although we have stayed pretty busy, it has been a different busy. The boys were used to getting home from school and spending the rest of the afternoon until dark playing out side and enjoying the neighborhood kids (for the most part.hehe).
But here we live in a cul-de-sac of all girls and no park to play at. Now don't think that I pity them or anything because their life isn't bad at all, but I know they miss the pick-up games, hide and go seek, and such.
So with baseball season being here it will give them something to look forward to and a little physical activity that doesn't involve my couch or coffee table as the arena..hehe
Rusty is helping coach Jake's team and the other coach seems extremely nice so that is a plus. Jarred on the other hand had his first practice last night. Needless to say I was NOT impressed.
When Rusty went to the coaches meeting a couple of weeks ago, we had Jarred signed up for Tee-Ball. Well Rusty got to talking to some of the Dads/Coaches and they all acted like we should probably move him up. So we Did. Now I'm not so sure.
I think as far as playing he will be okay, but this little team he is on seems very "Cliquish." Which is fine, believe me I am not looking for a new best friend, but the fact that we are the new kid in town and my son happens to be the only Kindergartner on the team, well we already have 2 strikes against us. So again, last night my irritation level was on the rise....Sigh
But it will all work out, it always does.
So now between the two kids we are having practice about 3 or 4 times a week until the games start and then 3 or 4 games a week plus some practices squeezed in here and there. Can't wait for Hailey to get in on the mix...Good Times..LOL
It is a lot of work but it is worth it to see the kids having fun. If anybody knows us at all then they know we like our sports around here, so all the practices and games aren't really that hard to handle, for now. Ask me in about 2 months..LOL

  • I can't even imagine. I'm sure that is what people think about us and hunting. To each his own eh? Hope this season is fantastic for you all and that the boys get through the awkward stages quickly.

  • Oh Mary.. I hope Jarred starts feeling better with his team. At least you are going to be a good busy this season. I love how you run for you children Mary.

  • Now that baseball is kicking in to full gear your boys are going to be so happy and so busy. They are both quite the ball players, and I mean that! Enduring the cliquish crowd though is miserable. Hopefully, they will quickly realize what an asset your family is to the team and appreciate you. After all, you were helping me with the wrestling tournaments and concession stands before your boys were even involved. They are lucky to have you!!

  • It sounds like Spring has sprung at your house too! I enjoyed looking at your wedding pictures. That was a familiar background in them. We have lived here at Oklahoma City for over 3 years now! Nobody lies when they say time flies!

  • Awww. I hope the team starts acting nicer towards Jarred. That stinks! Baseball is so fun, hopefully the season will get much better and he'll enjoy it! Taylor loves baseball. I'm not sure if it is too late to sign her up out here or not, but I'm going to try. She amazes me at how she can hit the baseballs, way better than I can ;) Anyway, hope you guys have a fun season!
