VANDERBILT!

Well, as many of you know most of my time gets spent at ball field with both of my boys and this week has been no different.

Jaden has had games, and Matthew had A LOT of games.

Matthew is playing in a showcase tourn. That is where some of the college scouts come and watch players, and yes there were about 5 MLB scouts there yesterday.

We seen some from the Chicago Cubs, Colorado Rockies and several others. It is interesting to watch them watch the players.

We played Wednesday night at David Lipscomb college, and yesterday and the rest of the weekend at Vanderbilt (which by the way is where my Mom has said since Matt was about 1 year old would go to college, I wish).

Anyway here are a few pictures from the games. Matt is sceduled to pitch on Saturday.

His arm is doing good.

Fathers Day...

was spent with me at the ball field with Matthew, and Jaden spending the day with Daddy!
My dad however was in Atlanta. I talked to him today though and told him Happy Fathers day.


This is a funny story. Yesterday Jaden and Stacy were in Champs Sporting goods and Jaden
knew today was fathers day, so he found a Atlanta Braves shirt that was just like his and got it off the rack and told Stacy that he wanted to get that for him for fathers day and that he had to buy it. Just like Jaden, always thinking of others.
So of couse what did Stacy do, he bought it. Nothing like buying your own fathers day gift.

We got him a few other things too, but I am sure that moment was priceless!!!

Doctor Doctor give me some news...........

the news was put on a temp splint on the arm, come back for an MRI and follow up appt.

The doctor said that he can not throw for a week (pitch).



Matt has been having some aching problem in the elbow for about a week, and as you can

see this is where we are now.



We got a great devise from my dear friend David (Laurens husband) that helped a lot with the

pain. Thanks David!



Ok, and are you ready for this. The doctor also said you can let it rest or if baseball is important

to you then we can do an MRI......... ok excuse me, did he just say is baseball important.

Dude, do we sit in 100 degree heat for the heck of it. Do we spend almost every breathing moment at the field for our health.... NO.



Anyway. Matt will go Friday morning at 6:45 for a MRI, and we see the Doctor on Monday at

320.



Keep us in your prayers!!

HOT Atlanta....

After the game. Jaden loved it

Matt on base. Check out the 1st baseman how big!




And did I say HOTTTTT! Hey, I have been doing this travel ball for about 11 years now and I dont think I was ever as hot as I was this weekend in Atlanta.


Well, we just got back from Atlanta from Matthews baseball (again). They had a game on


Saturday and Sunday. We didn't stay for the Sunday game since Jaden had game back


in Murfreesboro on Sunday. He already missed Saturdays game.


We hooked up my my Dad and Sandra.

To make a long story short,,, Jaden wiggled his way into smoozzzzing with the Coaches of Matthews team, next thing I know he has his self a Diamondbacks shirt and he is in the dug out.

He is the luckiest little 7 year old I know.

Saturday night Jaden talked me into staying and going to the Braves game. So me, being the "MoM that I am we went to the Braves game. He loved it. We drove back after the game and got home at 12:30am.

Calgon take me away!!!!!!!!!!

Introducing......

the lady who got me doing all this blog stuff!

My good friend Lauren introduced me on her blog page, and so I thought it was only fair to do the same.

And also, now you can put a name with a face of the lady who got me started doing this.

I tease her all the time that I have to try to keep up with the young part of life since I am getting old ! Lauren is also Dawson's mommy who you have seen several pictures of him in some of my slide shows. She is one of my co-workers and I love her to death.

Sometimes at work we would come in dressed a lot alike , or have on the same colors for the day. I tell her it made me feel good since she is in her mid 20' and I am... well we wont talk about that part.

What we love the MOST is when we get a chance to keep her sweet baby. He is so precious, and seeing him grow has been fun.

Check her site out ! http://www.houseoffletcher.blogspot.com/

THANKS Lauren!!!
