Well it is Friday and I LOVE Fridays. I love that the boys will be home for 2 days, Scott will be in town and we can have some time together. This weekend a lot of that time will be at Tommy's last basketball tournament of this season. Whew...made it through yet another season of youth sports. Tommy has had a fun year playing for the Hoop School team but I do think he is excited for baseball season to kick into high gear.
Which leads me to think....why is it that youth sports now all overlap? Tommy and Drew both started their baseball practices in January during basketball season. I don't remember sports overlapping when we were kids. Did they? Of course then again I was all about the social so just so I had a sport or activity I could be talking to someone I was good to go. But I don't remember my brother's sports ever being at the same time. Oh well back to the topic at hand...youth sports and the next season is baseball.
Scott did have the baseball "drafts" for Walnut Creek Little League this week. The draft consists of drawing kids names out of buckets and putting your team together. Both Jack and Drew are going to be on the "Twins" this year which is a big hit with Poppy, aka Grandpa. Tommy is not doing WCLL this year just his AAU team, the Dbacks. Drew is still doing both, Mariners is his AAU team. And Jack just WCLL praise the Lord. :) SO only juggling 4 teams schedules this year vs. 5. Hoping to have a few less conflicts with Tommy out of WCLL. The boys are all excited for baseball to begin, Scott is too. Tommy pitches and plays first most often, Drew the same and Jack...well Jack does love first base or pitching too because that is about the only spot there is action in 6 yr old tee ball.
This weekend we are going to find some time to celebrate Scott's birthday. The boys weren't with us in Mexico so missed his celebration. So we will bake a Boston Creme Pie, have roast beef, mashed potatoes, creamed spinach...all his favorites. And celebrate what a great guy, Dad and husband Scott is. He really gives so much. Adores all of us. Love him to pieces.
Did I mention that I LOVE Fridays? The house is clean right now, thanks for the help Sharman, and I am hoping to relish and enjoy that for another 30 minutes until the boys roll through the door.
Have a great weekend!
