Allstars...

I just had to brag on my little ball player!! He got voted by his team and his coaches for Allstars!!! Only 3 players on his team were selected. I am so proud of him. He has improved so much this season. It has just all of the sudden clicked for him. In the fall I was still yelling for him to pay attention, run faster, stop picking daisies, telling him to get his glove off his head and quit picking his nose! Okay..okay I still tell him to quit picking his nose! He is really enjoying it!! He loves playing pitcher and first base. I get so excited when he gets the ball and throws it to 1st to get'em out. I never imagined I be one of those crazy baseball moms....but here I am. Not to mention I've come along way. I actually know what hand his glove goes on and what postion he plays on the field! After all he's accomplised this season we have decided to not let him play Allstars. It's just to much for a 5 year old. Tournaments every weekend playing 5 to 6 games a day in 100 degree weather. I think we will wait a few more seasons....mommy just not ready for all that!

A Day at the BallPark








We enjoyed a Sunday afternoon at The Ballpark in Arlington...it was actually a little chilly. It's not normal for it to be 64 in MAy. We left the house around 3pm for a 7:05pm game because Matt's a little crazy....first we had to go to Academy and get the whole family Rangers shirts.



So we can support our team. He wanted to get there early enough to watch batting practice...which we did.



We were there before the gates were even open! It was a blast! We meet several of the fireman on B shift and their familes there. Our seats where awesome....lower level 1st base side. About half way through the game we went and sat on the Homerun porch with everyone else .





My favorite part of course is the food!!!! We had popcorn, peanuts, cracker jacks, jumbo dog,

2 super nachos, water and soda! oh so yummy!!!!

Tristen had lots of fun watching the game and playing with Coby and Kyler. We will have to do that again really soon!
