Baseball is back!!

Well, my favorite time of year is back - baseball!! To my great delight Alex has decided to play again. The past two springs have seemed so empty without baseball practice, games and all that goes with it. I'm so excited that he has decided to play at least one more year. Some of our best memories are during Alex's baseball seasons; evenings spent at the field watching the games, working the snackbar, practicing or being there to cheer other teams on. This years team is co-ed 7th-8th grade. It is good as neither group had enough players to field a team, so by combining they will make it work. A lot of the kids have played on past teams together, so that is a plus. I'll post results as games begin. We don't have a game until somewhere around May 12th. Spring is in the air!!

Alex takes 3rd in discus

Alex competed in his second track meet in Ash Grove and placed 3rd in discus. He threw 97' 1". Their meet before that was rained out with the massive amounts of rain we had. Throw in a few tornado warnings during school and it has been crazy. We have more rain again tonight, with more chances of tornado's tomorrow. It has been a crazy year for sports and everything else with weather messing up just about everything. What can we say - it's Missouri! It gets even better - chance of snow flurries tomorrow night!
