Life and stuff...

  • Happy Easter! I know it is late. I hope you had a great one. I did.
  • My family had a hunt and lunch on Saturday. Along with all the eggs the kids found a snake!
  • It wasn't a poison one but it was killed anyway :(
  • I don't like things being killed unnecessarily. That includes big creepy snakes.
  • I didn't get to have lunch either. That was my own doing though. The hubby and I went to the Rangers game.
  • I really thought they would win but lost in the 9th.
  • Monday was a long night.
  • I made dinner at 4 and it was off to Alvord for baseball.
  • The game were not that good.
  • The first one my kiddo's team lost. It was bad. That just couldn't get an out. Poor kids. My son did play really well though. He stopped most balls that came to him (and the surrounding area) and there were quite a few. He was even throwing the ball to first which I was happy to see them do something other than run the ball back to the pitcher.
  • They lost so bad the last inning they just let everyone bat once.
  • The older boys game was just he opposite.
  • After the boys had gone through the line up the coach stopped letting them steal bases. They could only take one base every batter no mater where the ball was hit. The boys were told to swing at everything. He was stealing home plate while the catcher had the ball in his hand.
  • Twice the catcher let the batter jog all the way to the plate. The other coach finally told him to watch and tag the guy out as he came.
  • The second inning we pitched a kid that doesn't even practice pitching. We let them get a few too many runs though because we should have run ruled them and it be over after that one.
  • There were 5 mins left in the allotted time and the blue wouldn't call the game. It was 23 to 5! We ended up playing until 10 o'clock.
  • It pissed the coach off and he told the boys to only swing at the good ones and get the hits. They were still only aloud one base but they were going to hit. Final score 27-5.
  • After the game the kids were hungry again so they didn't get to bed until well after 11 on a school night. I wasn't really happy.
  • Oh funny thing...my oldest was bobbing his head and moving his lips every time he came up to bat. The first time we were all like what is he doing? Turns out he was singing to get us all out of his head. By the end of the night he was jamming with his whole body. He couldn't stand still for nothing and even some of the team got into it singing from the bases as he batted.
  • Oh and it didn't stop until he made it all the way around to home plate :)
  • The ex pulled another no show for that game too. At least he was honest and didn't give a bullshit excuse.
  • The Oh shit I forgot was completely real and the kiddo was much more forgiving this time.
  • If it happens Friday though I might need some bail money.
