Richard bought me a cute little board with this saying on it for my birthday. (Which was on Father's Day by the way) Thought it fit our family perfectly. We have been busy with baseball of course. Chandler's team played in a Regional Tournament this past weekend in Thorsby, Alabama. They won 1st place. They did great and had a good time. Hudson enjoyed playing with his friends and also enjoyed a night at Sydney's on Monday. Caroline offered for him to stay with them since our game wasn't until 8pm and we were an hour from home. Thanks Caroline! It was very different watching a ballgame and not worrying about where Hudson was. Our next tournament is next weekend but it's in Northport at our ballpark. Yea!
Hudson is still enjoying his new school. He amazes me at the things he's learned in such a short period of time. He can say the Pledge and sing parts of My Country Tis of Thee. He even knows a few words in spanish. He loves talking about his friends and what they do. I love my family of boys and wouldn't have it any other way. :)

Our first tournament
Chandler's all-star team played in their first tournament this past weekend in Columbus, MS. It was a travel ball tournament which is not something we normally participate in but they wanted to give the boys a chance to play before the State tournament in July. They did good. They had to play 3 games on Saturday. The first one at 10:50 then one at 2:30 and the last one at 6:10. So, we were in Columbus all day! It was a long hot day but it was fun. They won the first 2 games but lost the 3rd one. On Sunday, they won the first game and lost the 2nd to the same team they lost to on Sat. So, they came in 2nd place. Chandler hit the ball really well. He missed a homer by just a few feet. It just doesn't seem like it's meant to be that he hit one over. He's come close so many times. Oh well. He also broke his bat one time. Richard's dad went and bought him another one. Those things aren't cheep! Thanks Rickey! He played a few innings at first, third, and catcher.
Hudson had a good time playing on the play ground, the slide, and the moonwalk, and of course hitting me up for money for the concession stand. I think he had 3 or 4 snowcones on Saturday. I so wish I would have taken his picture at the end of the day. He had on a white t-shirt that was brown with blue streaks down it by the end. Of course he had on flip flops so his feet were black! He was pretty nasty. The shirt came completely clean though. Gotta love Spray N' Wash, hot water, and Clorox!

Here's Hudson and some of the other SOBs. (Sibling of a blue teamer) Richard wants to make them t-shirts with that on there!
