Green Eggs and Ham and OTHER stuff....

Thing 1 and Thing 2...Pirate and Mermaid style!

The before...

...and the after! YUM!!!!

Today was Read Across America Day. Since we are a teaching family, it is an important day to emphasize with The Pirate and The Mermaid. We dressed for the occasion by wearing our Thing 1 and 2 shirts (thanks Aunt Kerri!) and our Cat and The Hat "hats". Both kids had green eggs and ham for breakfast...YUCK!!! How I LOVE eggs! Several readers came to read to their classes including Uncle Bryon!

My class had 4 readers and we went on a field trip to a Kindergarten class to bake up some Cat and The Hat pizza. (thanks Kerri!) The kids loved it and it smelled soooo YUMMY and tasted soooo GOOD!

It was a fun day and I am very tired......zzzzzzzz

Opening Day

Playing right field

The Pirate and the Mermaid

What?

2010 CCNL Rookie Braves

Today was opening day at the field. It was cold and then it rained! The Pirate was introduced and took the Little League pledge. We then went and bought the Pirate this really "hard" piece of equipment...he is a little embarrassed! But you got to protect them....

They had a mini game at 11 and scored more runs than the other team. YEAH! Aunt Staci even stopped by to visit.

Thank for selling ALL those candy bars Aunt Staci!

Busy week...

It has been a very busy week. We had training , went to Disney World and school. The pirate had practice this morning. It turned into a practice game. He was second up and wacked the ball to the second baseman and just STOOD THERE! I think he was in shock!!! He got thrown out...but Mommy was proud anyway. If it had been a real game...it was 4-2 Braves in the end. Not too shabby...

Braves Practice

Look who has moved in????

We couldn't believe it this morning....there it sits. We don't know if it is a boy or girl. We don't kow if it will stay awhile...we have had alot of rain lately. It might just be hangin' out...maybe we could charge rent?

Let the games BEGIN!!!!!

I forgot my camera...so, I used my phone. I had to get pics on the first day!!!!! That's him in baseball ready position...

Throwing to first base.

Trying.... and then, catching a fly ball!!!!

The pirate has moved up to the Rookie league (pitching machine). He is playing on the Braves this year and he had his first practice today. Unfortunately, he was not at his best. He puked this morning before going!!!! However, he was a trooper and made it all the way thru the practice. I think his coach was impressed!
