Signs of Spring

 

 

 

Spring is finally coming to Florida, it seems like the cold weather is finally slipping away a little bit and we have had wonderful temperatures the last few days. The flowers are starting to bloom and the bees are stopping by for a little nectar.

Natalie is now 5!

 

Well, our baby girl is now 5, and it is still hard to believe. She had a great birthday weekend. We started Friday afternoon at her school with cupcakes and treats for all her friends at school, then we let Natalie pick her birthday dinner of Beef O'Brady's and they did the singing and ice cream which was hillarious, and on Saturday, she got to see all her other friends at the park. I think everyone had a wonderful time, the birthday girl is now wanting to know when she is going to be 6, oh if she only knew that one day she would be wanting to turn the clock backwards.

Season Openers

 

I apologize for the delay in getting these posts up, I have been a little under the weather, but am doing much better now. So we had both opening games on Saturday, March 7th. Natalie and the other Giants did a great job, we are so proud of them all. Donovan and the Cardinals won their first game 9-8, Donovan got a good hit during his second at bat and caught the ball at first for an out on the other team, so I would say for his first "real" baseball game, he did magnificent. He seems to be playing first base alot, and is really enjoying it. The season is just beginning, so there will be many more to come. We have a double header on Thursday night, and it will be the only double header that they won't be playing at the same time, so if anyone would like to come out, it would be a great night to catch both games.

The Schedules are Up

We have the TBall/Baseball schedules for Donovan and Natalie. All games last an hour. Donovan is always on Field 6 or 7, they are the pitching machine fields, if you go to the main concession stand and are facing the stand, take a left to the quad of fields in the far back corner, fields 6 and 7 are the furthest two fields. Natalie's games are kind of all over, so if you can't find the number on the fields, then you could ask the main concession stand, they will know. Most of the TBall fields are in front of the main concession stand. I will let you know if there are any changes, but right now, here it is.....

Birthday Party Weekend

 

We had a couple of birthday parties to attend this weekend and the kids all had so much fun. The party on Sunday was a little colder than we expected, but the kids enjoyed themselves anyway.

Daniel made it to practice

 

Donovan had practice on Friday night and Daniel was able to make it out, the kids were so excited to have their Dad out at the practice.

Signature Moves

 

Natalie is showing that she has a signature move, every time she runs to first base after she hits the ball, she holds onto her helmet, it is so funny. We have checked to make sure that it isn't too big, but she does it anyway.
