STRIKE, SAFE, OUT.....

These are the words I hear the most lately!!! LOL!!

We are into playoffs for Mason's baseball team this week and it has been CRAZY!!! Monday night a game - it got rained out halfway through so we had to finish it Tuesday night. Unfortunately they lost that game. But it's double elimination (phew)!! Wednesday night's practice got rained out (thankfully). We had our second game last night and those kids came out charging and won 18-3!!!!! It was awesome!!!

So now we play again tonight. We SHOULD beat this team (we beat them in the regular season) but it will all depend on the kids. (Fingers crossed!) If we win tonight, we play again tomorrow morning. If we win that, we play tomorrow night. If we win THAT game, we play again Monday night and that might be the championship game. However, if we lose tonight - we are done.

I have loved this season. Mason being on the bigger kids team has been so exciting. As much as I look forward to getting back to a normal schedule and getting the kids to bed at a decent hour, I will miss this. It's been a great family event for us (Rex coaching, Mason playing, Syd and I in the stands cheering!!! And that little girl is a great cheerleader. She knows all the kids names, she's learned what to yell and when!! She's awesome!!) It's been so nice to do these things together as a family and I will be sad to see it end.

I'm really proud of how much Mason has grown through the season. Last night he pitched the entire game and only walked 3 batters and of those 3, 2 of them were at Full Count. He struck out 7 batters. He did fantastic. He's hitting the ball now and he's been doing great. He has so many nicknames this year - Deuce (he's number 2), M&M (obvious), Flash and Wheels (cause the boy can RUN!!!!! He is FAST!!!! You wouldn't know it by his size, but he can FLY!!!) I'll be anxious to see if any of the nicknames stick for next year!!! I'm proud of you bug!!!! :)

WAY TO GO AFC!!!!!!
