Well, we did it. My family survived the the Baseball/Softball season of 2011! And it was a great season. My son and I spent the weekend at Notre Dame University. His basball team was in a tournament there. They were the 4th seed going into the playoffs Sunday morning but unfortunately lost their first playoff game. He played great all weekend. His hitting was great. Consistently hitting the gaps...So good to see. We had time Saturday afternnoon to take a tour of the Notre Dame campus. That place is huge! It was cool to see all the history that this campus had. But boy were my feet sore after that tour. I walked the entire tour in flip flops probably not a good idea.
Since we were done by lunch time on Sunday at Notre Dame my son and I decided to head to Flossmoor to see my daughters tournament. My husband and daughter were not able to go with us to Notre Dame for the weekend because she was in her last All-Star Team tournament. They were the 2nd seed going into the playoffs on Saturday. She won saturday and was heading into the Final Four on Sunday. We got there in the middle of her 1st game on Sunday and sat and watched from the parking lot. I didn't want her to know I was there because she hits so much better when mom is not there. She hit another home run Saturday (I wasn't there). They won that game...came back in the last inning and pulled 5 runs in to win the game. Off to the championships...It was a nail biter because anything can happen in softball. They had the lead the entire game but not a big enough gap to sit comfortable. And it was hot out...we are in the middle of a heat wave in the midwest. Needless to say they won. I am so proud of her. She played both games as catcher and wearing that gear in this heat I'm so happy she didn't pass out.
Now our lives can get back to normal. And I can get back to my scrapbooking again. I got my Michael's coupons in my email over the weekend...so excited. Just might have to hit Michael's during lunch today :)
