Thanksgiving Vacation

Wow!  What a nice needed break.  We had a nice relaxing week at home.  The kids had a baseball clinic on Black Friday.  This allowed Erik and I to do a little shopping and have lunch while the kids got to have a little fun at Swing-a-Way batting cages in Parksburg.  My coworker just bought the cages and Austin and Zack have been taking pitching lessons there.  This was just a 3 hour session on hitting, fielding, catching and throwing.  Austin and Zack ended up in the finals of one game and big brother ended up winning.  Saturday night we went over to the Chapman's for dinner. 

Baseball Tryouts

Today we are getting ready for baseball tryouts. It seems as though we just got finished. As many of you might know, Austin's Little League tournament team made it to the final 8 in the state of PA. He played for states near Pittsburgh. It was an awesome experience that we will never forget. Anyway, tryouts for the Delaware Sabres starts today for Zack. He is tryout out for the 10u team. Austin has tryouts tomorrow for the 11u team. This is strictly a travel team. Austin played for this organiztion last year. We are giving it a shot for Zack.

Snowstorm of '10

Well, this is Day #3 being home from the big storm. Three more days to go. We will have been off for 1 whole week when this is all said and done. It has been great. The kids have built 2 huge snowmen. They have taken their 4-wheelers on the road during the storm.
