My Poem

This was for an assignment in language arts. My dad made me post this.

Baseball Game

The cool brisk air blowing against my face

As I step up to the plate

and the pitch......."BALL" yelled the ump.

I step out of the box to look for the sign

Nose, ear, belt, ear, belt, hat, ear, OK i think swing away

As I step back in i get ready to swing away.

My grip tightens as i take a deep breath

The pitch comes but the Ball breaks

"Ball" yelled the ump again.

I step out of the box and try to relax

My coach just yelled "again" when your ready

As I stepped into the box the pitch came automatically.

"Oh, no" a curve ball "strike" yelled the ump

My coach just yelled "do it again big Ben"

I stayed in the box and hit the ball

"HOME RUN" the ball goes soring.

Just FYI

Many blogs out there are "two way" communication vehicles...that's cool! Josh and I decided to make our blog simply an "information out to you" kind of a blog and so we removed the option for people to leave comments. So enjoy the info and know that we love you all!

Xander the Busy Bee Boy

Xander is a Busy Bee. No that doesn't mean he is nosey. It is the name of the preschool group we participate in. Today was his first day back this fall and he was so excited and happy! Nearly every day without fail this summer he would ask me if it was a school day. He really enjoys his friends, learning letters and number, etc. He is quite a kid!

Chrissta

I am here to tell the world that I love this girl. She is the most amazing woman, friend and a great example. We have grown a lot together. We have been married for more than 15 years, and she has helped me mature and grow as a person. Love you babe....
