Spring Hibernation

I know that most folks think that hibernation starts in the fall and that spring brings awakening! Well, not in our house. I just put our spring sports schedule on one page and don't expect to see any friends, make it to my neighborhood happy hour, have a family dinner or clear off my desk until late June! Jack is playing baseball. That's Monday, Wednesday some Fridays and some Saturdays folks. He's playing in the Majors for the Astros. He has been pitching, catching (his first love) and playing infield. His batting average is above 500! AJ (formerly known as Aidan, but now renamed AJ since third grade) is in the Farm League (just below Majors) and playing for the A's. That is on Tuesdays, Thursdays, some Fridays and some Saturdays. He is catching, pitching, playing infield and outfield. Guess he is all over the place, but again, pitching and catching are his faves. He is also playing club soccer which is on Mondays, Fridays, Sundays and some Saturdays. Mother's Day dinner will be spent in Vergennes watching a 6pm game! Emma is also playing club soccer and that is 2pm on Saturdays.

Did I mention I'm co-chairing the Little League Snack Bar? Gum, pizza, gatorade, soft pretzels and candy anyone? I am in there every Wednesday night for over 4 hours, some Fridays and some Saturdays. Can you say over committed?

Thankfully, we all love to be at the ball fields and the weather has been pretty nice. It was very chilly last week, but has warmed up this week.

Everyone here is doing well, Thank You God as my friend Mary Fitz would say. Healthy and happy and dirty!

Here's to lots of hits, throw downs, steals, goals, assists and no injuries!

Welcome back!

I'm exhausted just reading about it. Holy cow.

Wish we could see some game -- send us updates.
