~There's No Crying In Baseball~

Maybe not in baseball....but how about softball? I have done the unthinkable and joined my Sunday School Class's coed softball team. We had our first practice tonight. Let me just say I am impressed that I could at least stop the ball a couple times before going deep into the outfield and I was able to hit the ball a couple times during practice. Go Me! It was funny, though, my friend Steph told me I was "Swinging Blunts" when I was batting and that was a good thing. I thought she said "Swinging Blondes" so I told her I would try to "Swing some more blondes!" Everyone cracked up when I asked what do we need to wear Monday night? I thought this was a legitamate question. This is going to be an interesting season!

Yesterday was my Mom's 60th Birthday. I'm really starting to appreciate her more and think about how precious life is and how quickly time flies. My Gramma, her Mom, will be 90 this year, Mom turned 60, and I turn 30 this year. Pretty cool! Not that I'm turning 30, but the 30 years between each of us! Happy Birthday, Mom! You're inspiring! I'm having a hard time on the softball field and she is preparing to climb some mountains out west in a couple of months. Mom and I have talked about taking a Mother/Daughter trip to the Cascade Mountain Range. One more positive enforcer to get in shape!!
