Say Goodbye

Baseball season is over. We did win a game in the playoffs but got eliminated on Sunday. I had the best game ever on Saturday. I was three for three; my first at bat was a single and an RBI, then my next at bat was a double with 2 RBIs and then my last at bat was a triple with 2 RBIs. My double was a line drive over the left fielders head and then my triple was a bomb in left field too (this one was way over the left fielder's head). It was a great game, but dad missed it. He has never missed a game and he decided to golf because he thought we would lose and get killed like the night before. I wanted him to see that all he taught me paid off. Mom was proud of me and cheered loud- I heard Zach cheer too.

Baseball is over and football has begun.....

Summertime is Here!

"Slump? I ain't in no slump. I just ain't hitting."
-Yogi Berra


Last time I blogged baseball was just getting started. This weekend starts the playoffs for my team. We have only won 1 game and tied 1 game. I started out the season hitting but I did make some mistakes while playing shortstop. Then I got into a slump and was moved to third base. I played really well at third base but didn't get a hit in four games. Dad helped me out and took me to the hitting doctor. My last two games I have hit bombs and even did well at the Regis baseball camp this week. Mom and dad have been pretty tough on me but when I do well they are always cheering the loudest.

Zach and I are on summer break- yessss!!! Mom has her summers off, so we don't have to wake up early. We are getting excited for our vacation in California. We'll see all of California Cousins and Taylor, our Florida cousin. We'll be out for the Fourth of July and stay at Grandma & Grandpa G's house. And Zach is excited to see Uncle Mike- he calls Zach "Zeke." We always laugh when he does because it seems like he can't say Zach right.

Football has started too. I am playing with the Hawks this year. I really like the coaches and my new teammates. I am going to be running back again this year. Football is my favorite sport. I could play football all the time and never get tired of it.
