Third Place! Go Cougars!!!

So today is always a bittersweet day.  It is Father's Day.  Father's Day is always special because Brandon is an amazing dad.  It is a day that makes me miss my daddy so much.  He was amazing and truly my hero.  I know that he would be so proud of these boys and that he would love nothing more than spending his day with all of us, especially at the ballpark.  My dad was a huge part of me and I miss him so much.  There is a hole in my heart that was left when he left for Heaven, and while I know that he is happy and healthy there is still a very selfish part of me that wishes he was here.  A little chat and a hug would be amazing.  To my daddy and to my amazing husband Happy Father's Day! 
We spent our Father's Day at Huffman ballpark.  It was great. Our frst game was against CenterPoint.  We won 17-12. I  was so proud of the boys.  They played great and they are now 3rd.  Immediatly after game 1 we played Pinson again.  This is the same Pinson team we played Thursday night.  They won 20-12.  So we finished this tournament in 3rd, which is awesome.  I am so proud of all of these boys.  They played hard.  We do have one coach who seems to want Danny to hold the ball.  I understand he has not played with Danny before, but defensively Danny can make the plays.  Many catchers cannot and if he is paired with the right infield.  Sorry, I needed to vent.  I am over it sort of, my baby loves baseball and he truly believes that one of his coaches hates him and that is not the case.  Anyway.  I think overall our coaches are amazing.  When you see teams like the Pinson team, whose coach yells and cusses and argues with everything I again am so thankful that we are at Clay where overall the coaches want the boys to do well, but more than that they excel. 
We headed home and I have edited a little more and am about to head to bed.  I am exhausted, and I need to rest as this week is going to be non stop!  I am so ready though.  Regionals here we come! 

Day 2 District Tournament

This morning we got up and headed to the new house.  We needed to sign a change order because of the fifty cent balance that was there.  It sort of cracked me up when it appeared, but regardless it had to come off.  While we were there we headed to the house to see the finihed tile.  For the most part it looked pretty good.  The shower in our bathroom though was horrible.  Seriously I think they tiled it blindfolded.  They will fix it though.  This week we are supposed to get hardwoods, countertops, and a driveway so stay tuned to see how it all goes.  Our fireplace is so pretty though!!!
We headed to the ballpark from the house.  We played Pinson and won.  It was 27-10.  GO CLAY!!!  This put us in fourth and gauranteed our spot next weekend.  Now we play tomorrow to see where we go from 4th.  The boys played amazing and I was so proud of them all. 
We headed home and literally relaxed.  Well, I edited and did a little homework.  I also did laundry as the boys were wearing their white uniforms again since it is going to be hot.  I fell asleep editng at the computer so I fell behind on my blog.  Catching up right now though!


I did manage to get  few things on eBay and I am so excited about how well everything is selling.  Hoping that I can keep up listing and that they keep selling!
