Okay - so who's the crazy lady that ended up taking her kids to St. George? HAHAHA! We had a ball. We all have lobster faces yet are white everywhere else... The kids and I just got home and I am waiting for Eric to finally return from his long road trip to Washington. I decided late Thursday night, after the doc had given me the go-ahead, to jet down to St. George. My mom and dad had already taken Mick and Maddux (since I was originally not planning on going) so I just had Mays, Mace and Gwire! We made good time and the ride was not bad at all. I am soooooo glad that I was able to watch Mick play. I am so proud of him and the approach he has on the game. He did a great job - with a few Bill Buckner's here and there but he hit the ball well and was on base a ton. He also made a couple big plays and pitched phenomenal. My dad was going to take him to Vegas since he is the only person we know that can hit a slow roller to the first baseman and still be safe.
He plays hard and he plays with heart. He has such a good time with all the boys. What a great group of young men!! They are so fun to watch. I am sad I will miss the next tournament after watching this one. I will get some pictures posted in the next day or so. The kids did really well and I have to say a great big "THANK YOU" to my mom and dad. There is no way I would have survived down there without them. My mom's poor knee will prob be hurting tomorrow (she had a knee replacement done a couple months ago and this is the most she has been on it I am sure, except for when she had to babysit me in Florida with Macee's dance) and my dad was fighting a yucky cough and congestion. They are so awesome. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
My dad called to make sure we were home and Maddog talked to him. He got off the phone and started to cry and I asked him what was wrong. He said "I really miss Grandma and Grandpa, can we go back to St. George?"
It was fun... we had a ball... and oh my gosh, is it really Easter tomorrow? So unprepared!!! Oh ya, Mick was reading my post and I failed to brag that he did hit his first homerun of the season!! Go MICK!!! Go TIGERS!!!

I know I'm not Mick's mom....but I was so proud of him this past week/weekend, too!! I love that kid.... He does have such a good attitude, and he played so well!! Eric would've been so proud, too. You could totally see the work he's put into his pitching. Like I said, I was so proud of him. It was so fun to see you, even though I think you're crazy for driving to St George with two weeks left. You're awesome though... I can't believe how much you do, and how you do it with a SMILE on your face. I just love you.... What cute parents you have, too. They were so much help to you, and I thought it was awesome. Again, I'm sorry about Jaxon pushing Mays. I felt so bad about that. Jaxon has a big heart....but he is just not very "sensitive", if that makes sense. We'll have to get him and your DARLING little Mad Dog together 'cause that kid is just too cute. I'm going to post pictures of him on my blog today. What a face!! You and Eric have done such a good job with your kids....and believe me, I know what a handful little ones so close in age can be. You are amazing. What a cute and good group of boys we have on the Tigers, too, huh?? It's so much fun to watch them....and Matthew loves them so much. Happy Easter, and I'm sure I'll see you this week. Basketball again!! :o) Talk to you soon!!
Go team GO!!! Yes, you are a little out of your mind to be traveling so much while SOOO pregnant, but just goes to show what a tough momma you really are!!!
Hey Jess! Yeah, changing my blog was really simple. They have the directions on the right hand side of her blog, and you get to keep all your widgets without doing anything. it was really sweet! She just asks that you put a link on your blog if you use one of her layouts. She had a bunch that were cute too! I hate changing all my links so I just don't ever change it, but I might use that site more often!
I am so glad you came to St. George to see the boys play! Mick played awesome and is such a great kid! It was fun to talk to you and Chloe loved hanging out with the girls (Macee and Makena). She thought she was so big and they were so nice to her. Too bad Carter and Macee were throwing up...hmmm what's that all about!? ha ha I will see you this week at basketball!
